    @ et al to make the small sized picture for the Word game:
    Make your 'copy image location' on the Google search page, do not click on the image to go into another page to isolate the image. I'll only put a large image in if I want the small print to be read. If this is not clear ask me again in real time via here or Twitter.

    'Copy IMAGE location' by right clicking mouse while cursor is over the thumbnail of Google search image page. This works for a PC not sure how on an Apple.

    Now who can explain how to do this on an Apple?

    Should you find a large photo image you can resize it in any photo shop type software or upload to http://www.tinypic.com and resize there.

    If you are running a windows computer find the video you want to pull a picture from. Then stop the video on the spot where you want to make the picture. Now press the print screen button, it doesn't seem to do anything at that moment but it saves a copy of the screen in the computer memory. If you have a laptop you have to hold down the function key then the insert key and that works as the print screen button. Then go to MS Paint and click on edit and then paste. On the left click on the select button then hold down your left mouse button to make a square around the area of the picture that has been pasted to your screen. After you get the area that you want selected click on edit then cut and the picture will disappear. Now click on file then new, when another small window appears click no. Then go to edit again and click on paste again, the picture you cropped out should be on the screen. Now just save as from the file menu and save it as a jpg or jpeg file and name it what ever you want to. You should have the picture that you want. The more you do it the easier it gets. You'll need to ask someone on how to do this on a Mac as all I have are Windows based computers. As Che said I use Tiny Pic also to upload and download to Marina's site. It's free.
