Hey there!

I have a fledgling icon community over at

rawrcons and I am running into a problem: screencaps. So far I've been able to find fansites that have PB specific caps, but as I start looking for less 'A-list' celebrities, they don't tend to have fansites and, if they do, they are not current or do not have HQ caps. I use ~dj_capslock over on LiveJournal a lot, but if I can't find caps there then I'm pretty much out of luck.

So, my question is this: what are other good sources for caps? What do you guys use? I use Zimbio a lot, but I prefer not to icons photoshoots and appearances because the expressions tend to be monotonous. Is there anywhere on IJ that archives caps or takes requests for caps? (I've long since accepted the fact that I really will never be good at capping :|)

Any suggestions? Thanks!

	ghjfk Home of the Nutty is the one I was trying to think of earlier, thanks!! Do you know if there is an equivalent to FRAPS that would work on a mac? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Here is a discussion on DJ_Caps that might help. Here is a top ten of clever capturing programs for Mac. However, I haven't tried any of these, and can't verify a secure download or personally recommend one. But it's a jumping point for you. Are you looking for caps of someone in particular at the moment? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, thanks! And I will check out the programs...if any are particularly good, I'll report back XD

Right now, I really wanted to do some Lucy Punch sets. I just watched Bad Teacher and she makes ridiculously wonderful expressions, but there is only one set of her, currently, on wikicon. I'm also waiting for This Means War caps (which I figure will be on DJ soon enough :D) for Chris Pine, and Kate Mara in happythankyoumoreplease.

Thank you for all of your help so far ♥
