Of course you do Andy, because you're bloody good at it! Tell me, how many aviation related DVDs do you own?

The Blue Max?

Good question! Can you somehow upload a paused image from YouTube?

 

[Njaco]

Wildcat, you got them all right!!

Graeme, yes you can but it takes alittle work. In fact almost all those images came from YouTube. This is how I do it:

While viewing something on your monitor, when an image or pic that you want is on, press the "Print Screen" button at the top of your keyboard - mine is at the end of the "F" keys. This places a pic of what is on the screen to a clipboard.

I then open a graphics program (I use "Paint" that comes with my PC and I think most PCs) and select "New" for a blank page.

Then I select "Paste" from the edit and the whole screen shot is pasted onto the blank page.

I then cut/crop what I want, select a "new" blank page and paste.

The "Paint" program usually only saves in Bitmap, which can be huge, so I then go to another graphics program (I use Ifranview) and save as a .jpg or clean it up - whatever. and waabamm!! I have a screen shot.

Its not so bad when you get the hang of it.

Now I got to find more movies. I think if your PC also plays movies you can do the same thing without going to YouTube.


ok, some more.

Thanks Chris, I'll give it try!

 

[Njaco]

The first one is "Thirty Seconds..." (Cosimo)

and the 4th one is "Von Ryan..." (Wayne)

#2 and #3 might be pretty hard. Although #2 you might bop yourself in the head when I tell ya!

 

[Wildcat]

Thanks for the tips Njaco. I'm not sure about the remaining pics so I take a stab at....
#2- One of the Iron Eagles
#3- Castle Keep
#5- A wing and a prayer

Could be way off here...

 

[Njaco]

Only one you missed was #2 - pretty good. Like I said you'll hit yourself when you figure it out.

Hint: Its not an aviation or war movie.

The Phantom shot looks like one from a Magnum PI episode I saw a while back....
