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

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.

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!

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...

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....

Wildcat, your burning through them! #3 I'll give you as "Tobruk". I clipped it from "Raid on Rommel" but those films are the same with the SAME FOOTAGE! Just cut in Richard Burton instead of Rock Hudson.

Another hint for #2 from above:

"Jeremy! These are biological *warfare* maps!"

Aye, but Tobruk came first I can't stand seeing the same footage used in another movie, sheer lazyness by the Director, which in the case of Raid on Rommel was Henry Hathaway- who should've know better.

#2 -The Andromeda Strain Google is my friend!!
BTW that B-29 shot, is that from the Bamboo Blonde?
