You know, doing this whole giant screencap project aka qafcaps.com, I've discovered things that I've never seen in the series before. Okay, I've only never seen some things in Season Five since I didn't really pay attention to it but check these out! The end of 503 was pretty darn good. Someone needs to make me an icon or a wallpaper (1440x900) or ... yes, icons are very much acceptable. Look at these! Come on. They're good.

Remember I couldn't think of any images for my girls ohfreckle, sakesushimaki, rinmonsterer, sodoesrachael, & url_girl? Here it is! They're right here. How can you resist?

Oh yah I almost forget about how good that TEENY Scene is and the Kiss at the end of it too :D

Mmm :)

Can't wait to see what the girlies come up with

I've definitely forgotten about it but it was an interesting surprise! I hope they take me up on it and don't want to kill me for multiple requests, ha.

SO good! Yum! ^^

[amelialourdes.livejournal.com]

Those pictures just ... yowza. :))

[sakesushimaki.livejournal.com]

Yes, one of the top Season 5 scenes, imo.
But ze lighting is terrible for iconizing! :D

[amelialourdes.livejournal.com]

I didn't even know it existed until I looked back at the episode! Lighting is terrible. Club scenes. :|

... also a totally renovated backroom or something with that weird platform in the middle. What's with that?

[sakesushimaki.livejournal.com]

Well, Babylon belongs to Mr. Kinney now. Seems he wanted to redecorate. :) Oh wait, isn't that actually the illustrious VIP Lounge?

As for the icons, do you have any specif coloring in mind? Or cropping? Or a caption? I'm all for instructions.

Here are some first test icons -- let me know if you hate/like the direction:

I thought that it was the VIP Lounge at first! Then I remembered that the Lounge has couches and I think it was upstairs and I don't remember a platform. But, I haven't capped that episode yet so I have to look closer.

I like that second one! Good coloring with the browns. It's neutral. I like neutral tones. I don't know yet about the blurred background. I think I like it as is but like I said, I don't really know! Cropping's really great on the second one. I know I have something specific in mind for the first two regarding cropping but I'm crappy with coloring.

[sakesushimaki.livejournal.com]

Huh. Maybe it's a different angle of the VIP lounge?

It was the first time that I tried extending the background. I basically dragged it up with the smudge tool. Hence the blurriness. It's something I think I've seen people do lately and thought I could try it. Don't know yet either if I like it. So, would you prefer me to leave the Babylon-like coloring or should I continue to play around? I'm afraid achieving a natural skin color is exceeding my skill though. :( Well, I'ma try some more.

[amelialourdes.livejournal.com]

I just watched the episode and the VIP lounge was upstairs and wasn't introduced until a couple of episodes later. lol I have no idea.

Ah, I gotcha. I like the blur though! Blur's good for that kind of background since it gets rid of everything else. Maybe just a blurred background and keep the color? That's really all I need. Hee. Thank you for just giving it a try, bb. I can see I picked a tough one.

I like your caps

Hi! My name is Rosa. I am a spanish fan of QAF and B/J and your caps are beautiful. But in my house the PC is of my brother and I haven´t many free time for seeing all. Amelia, Could you downloap your caps in archives zip? This will be fantastic and easier because there are many caps and for me it´s imposible to record all the seasons. You know, my brother is seeing all the time and I want to enjoy of my favorites boys.
Well, if my idea is OK for you, tell me please. I will see your answer here.
Thank you again.
Hugs.

Hi Rosa!

I'm definitely planning on making .zip archives available but I need to finish the website first. I plan on putting up some of the extras on the DVDs on the site as well. So, the .zip archives will be posted in my journal when they're available. Thanks for the comment!

Thank you for your answer.
It´s a great news. Of this way I will record all your fantastic caps.
