Help? I just tried to cop a screen cap from an on-line showing of an episode of "Drive" and have encountered something I've never seen before.

I had to print screen, and what gets pasted into Photoshop is the image plus an unremovable, movable frame over the image. It's very strange. I can move the frame around, and a portion of the image shows within it, but I can't get rid of it, or copy/paste the part of the image that shows ... Roll Eyes

Can anyone help? give me a clue how to salvage the image without the frame?

Lemme know.

If you want to reproduce what I did, the link is here: http://www.myspace.com/driveonfox

Thanks to Rhapsody I found a copy of the cap I was looking for. I would still like to hear an answer to the above if anyone has one, though.

Thanks,

NB

I was fairly sure I remembered Robbie talking about this issue somewhere on here before (as it's something I came across myself when trying to take caps off the BBC's real player and so I remembered it).

Is this of any use? This is the post I remembered.

Thanks, SW, that looks like it would do the trick.

Fox is clearly confused, much to the detriment of its audience. Clearly someone keeps recommending these shows, and someone else keeps authorizing them, then they get cancelled ... Rolling Eyes Evil or Very Mad I don't get it, Damn Pissers.

I'm ticked ABC cancelled Invasion and left us hanging. Why put a show on after Lost - get us hooked - then cancel with no closure?? Surely they could have least thrown us a bone. Or maybe I was the only one watching? Embarassed

Well like Josh, Minnaer got contracted to produce shows for Fox. Whedon is just sitting out his contract, refusing to produce anything at the moment (can't blame him), so yeah Minnaer just happens to get that same treatment: coming up with quality shows, which are immensely popular in Europe, but for some reason don't get the viewing audience they want.

For an European Browncoater pur sang, it's just disheartening.

Just as long as they don't cancel House, then DEC will be happy. Smile Evil or Very Mad Twisted Evil

I don't think they'll be doing that anytime soon. ^_^

Oh, yeah... what ever happened to that? I watched like three EPs but had to let that one go because I just had enough shows as it was.

do.

I never heard it got cancelled. It just never came back on the air after the season finale. I hate it when they do that.
