I think I did...

Capturing WMP Images
And so...
I watched The Holiday the other day and Cameron Diaz's house in LA gave me a tinge of ID inspiration. The stair case caught my attention. Thus, I was trying to capture the image of the stairs from Windows Media Player playing the movie. After a few failed attempts using Pause and Print Screens, Full Screen and Print Screen etc etc, I thought why not search for some solution. And viola, straight to the answer.
There are actually a few methods to do it:
a. Simply do a CTRL-I and WMP will prompt you to save the captured image to the disk.
b. In WMP, go to Tools -> Options -> Performance Tab and reduce the "Video acceleration" from the default full to none. Restart with the file you want to play and do a ALT-PrtSc to copy the image to the clipboard
There you go...I prefer the first method ;)

May Day May Day
May Updates...
It's a boring and gloomy Sunday today. The weather turned crap this week. Where is all the sunshine?!?!?!?! Ugghh disgusted, totally disgusted with the weather and for the fact that I suddenly realised I've completed most of the stuff on my list of things to do, I felt bored ONCE again
And so was surfing the web for evening gowns for mum, setting up iGoogle...oh wow didn't notice it was quite useful cos I've always used My Yahoo! Not that Yahoo! is not good, but I would say Google made an effort to keep up? Not sure which one has the service first, but I'd used My Yahoo! for quite a while now... So far, wuts' in my google home page is: Weather forecast (still haven't take the time to figure out how to display more than one place...I have a big list in my yahoo!), daily horoscope, BBC News, A ToDo List and Calorie Counter by LabPixies hehe
, Jamie Oliver's recipes, dictionary.com, word and quotes of the day and World Cup Scores (?uh?...not sure why it is there? but it just happens to be)
Been to two gigs so far...Lost Prophets in Wembley Arena and 30 Seconds to Mars, London Astoria. Comments? Lost Prophets performance and stage set up etc are quite cool. Although I would say the sound system ain't that great. Prolly cos it's quite a big venue. 30 Secs to Mars...awww Jared Leto was so cool!...Really good ;)...although we waited for almost two hours before they came out! It's all worth it!
Work stuff, things died down a bit these days...mostly working on minor projects stuff, enhancements and bug fixes etc. Was making bookings and planning for NY trip next month! Can't wait! Gee how I wish I had more holidays and money to spend on those holidays LoL...On top of that, am totally broke this month for buying two Karen Millen dresses which I can't resist not buying! Hit me! Hit me hard! I need to wake up!
Besides feeling bored on a slack Sunday, I've actually have some other stuff to follow up...Call STA to send me my youth card, book boston's bus tickets, buy air ticket back home for Sept, etc, etc.
Sent out a parcel back home yesterday. And guess what it contains...A gift for Mum...for whatever occassion she wanted it for...Mother's Day or her Birthday (her bd's early next month), a belated birthday card for bro, a mother's day card, a birthday card for mum and a father's day card...LOL...cheapskate me tot why not send everything at once! Well my another excuse would be that I don't have to sneak out to the post office during office hours ;)!
