I'm having trouble making a decision between these options. I was thinking of offering to make graphics (icons or story banners or book covers or something) for people.

What a great idea! It sounds like the prompt post would work for that, and maybe the Big Bang too, if you're up for a more formal thing.

I'm going to need a better source of images than just googling them though. (You end up with the same handful of publicity shots.) I need to get my hands on a digital copy of the film so I can make screengrabs.

Do you have the DVD? If so, VLC will take good screencaps. That's what I use and it works well.

I've hesitated over what else to say in reply, as I have a copy, but I can't easily share it, as it's in a form I've created for vidding. It's e-nooooor-mous, and no file sharing service I have access to would take it. I could maybe clip a scene you need, though, and it might not be too big to share. Maybe. That said, I have done some processing on it, so it wouldn't look exactly like the DVD version. Cleaned it, brightened it, squared the pixels and stripped the audio and so on. I suspect it would be much easier for you to just buy the DVD.

If you can't get the DVD, contact me by private message if you want to talk about it some more. We can discuss the options.

I need to just bite the bullet and get the DVD.
