Hi,

This might be a really obvious question...but where can i get hold of photos of actors, TV photos, Film photos so i can send them for to be signed?

I've previously just sent photos i've printed out from the computer, but i haven't been able to find many photos of a high enough quality to print off.

I know about www.moviemarket.co.uk but i find their selection a bit limited.

Any other suggestions? :?

Thanks!!

Hi, I'm not completely sure, but most TV programmes have a post card sized picture available for some of the characters of that programme. Many will provide them for free, for instance here a user sent a request for some cast photos: http://www.fanmail.biz/mboard/viewtopic ... 81#p490981
And myself, last week I requested some cast pictures for some of the past cast of Casualty, and instead they sent me 1 picture of the current cast, plus seven autographed cards of the current cast http://www.fanmail.biz/mboard/viewtopic ... 2&t=113952

Hope that was of some help?

Phoebe :D

I search online (google.com is my favorite, click images and then sort by extra large, then large) and then print them out myself. allmoviephoto.com is also a good one to find high quality images.

Also, if I have a DVD of theirs I love, I get screen captures from it using my computer then print it out at a store.

Hi, welcome to the boards! :mrgreen: I usually find a photo online, and send it to walgreens for them to print off. They do a pretty good job there. {thumb2}

I usually print off 6x4 pictures, or I send cut outs from magazines with some card stuck on the back to give it strength. Although I have never had a picture I have sent signed, the celebrity has always sent their own. So if you are not able to print your own pictures then ask the celebrity if they can send you a picture, the majority of celebrities will have their own pictures available to send :)

I usually go to the cleebrity's fan sites. Most of them have HQ photos or sometimes I go on Google and Hqparadise. Try high quality photo sites. They have lots of good photos there.

Does anyone know how to screencap DVDs for free? I've spent the last 3 hours trying to find the answer on the internet and typically getting absolutely nowhere. The difficulty is trying to get the quality good enough.

I'm trying to find some recent photos of Betty White in "Golden Girls" but finding it really difficult. :neutral:

What do you use to watch your videos? I have PowerDVD on my computer and if you hit the "c" key it will "capture" it.

Hope this helped!
