wordplayI need to sort out how to make screencaps sometime pretty soon, because I'm supposed to be doing a post about Wilby Wonderful for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
the_ckr_files1 and apparently it's been moved up a week (um, o rly?) and I should probably, yeah, finally learn how to do that so I don't have to steal those belonging to other people. Is there good screengrab shareware that works well with VLC or something?
1Which is, like, the greatest thing and hey, Hewlettistas, is totally something that somebody could do on a smaller scale for dHew, discuss. I mean, it would give people a REASON to watch Boa v. Python, f'rex.

But it's totally okay to use existing caps with credit, should you wanna.
