So, I was an idiot and updated my ancient desktop computer with a new PowerDVD (the program I use to cap). Of course the new PowerDVD doesn't work like the old PowerDVD and now my old PowerDVD didn't work the way it used to either! I also haven't hooked up my external CD drive yet since I moved and my computer's telling me it doesn't read it anyway.
So, that was the story. Therefore, I wasn't able to rip DVDs the way that I used to so I could cap them. Now! I discovered that the quality doesn't diminish using VLC's automatic capping and I can rip it with Handbrake, ripping at 100% quality! Therefore, I can cap again! YAY! Check out the new 201 ones that I put up.
They're going to be a little dark but I figure anyone with basic photoshopping skillz can use brighten and a little balance of contrast if they want to use an image. And! It's at the right screencap ratio. ... I swear, it's the little things that are exciting.
