I am currently making a new avatar, a gif of Bruce Lee swigging his numchucas around himself, I have a good video of it and I good program for making animated gifs but I need to get the still images out of Windows Media Player into paint (as an intermediatory stage before putting them into the gif creator) but I can't seem to take proper screenshots of movies out of WMP (try it yourself if you don't believe me, try using the tool for selecting an area of an image an then moving it around, the background moves but the image stays where it is:blink.

If anyone knows of any way I can take frames of an mpeg file and get them into paint or something similar I would be very grateful.

You can save screens off MPG files such as .mpg, .mpeg, .mp2 and DVD-videos with InterVideo WinDVD 4 or later. And it's a good program for playing such videos, too.

I know this isn't as suffisticated as others, but it's freeware - legal and it works.
