Not a real word, I realize. My question is this: Where are people going for pictures taken from upcoming episode trailers? Star Trek Interactive hasn't been around for awhile, and Vidiot seems to have gotten out of the individual picture game. So, where do all the cool kids go for such tasty shots as those images of the Borg ship Altair posted?

Well I just download the trailer, then pause an image, then copy it, then paste it into a graphics program. I save as a jpg or gif file and upload it.

I had imagined that some small number of people posting pictures had captured them themselves, but is that the only option left? Have all the screen capture sites vanished?

I seem to find no good screengrabs pages out there either. So I grab them just like Black Knight said.

There are still a few places around.

Ahhh they're two nice sites - but... Alidar's caps are often murky - hard to see detail, and Saba doesn't do many. Vidiot used to have the best and crispest screen images around!

I wish somebody would start a new site that would update with every episode. Just like Alidar's site, but that would KEEP UPDATING!
I might even do it myself, if I had a screen capture device.

Alidar hasn't put up anything new since early this season, and that other site seems to be from last season. I guess I was thinking more of the images grabbed from trailers and the like.

But thanks for the help!
