Why do the captures sometimes look like white & orange Fortunecity logos and I can't make sense of the pages?

For some reason the site graphics get corrupted making the pages un viewable.  I have tried so many times to get in touch with FC's technical support and have never received a reply.  The corrupted pages does not happen all the time and moving the site to another free server is impossible because of the amount of free space I would need.  Please try the page later giving it a few hours to sort it self out, if not after that time please email me and let me know!  This is important so I can keep track on how often it occurs.


Can I use your captures for my site?

Feel free to use my captures if you have/are making a Roswell site.  All that I ask in return is that you add a link saying where the captures came from.


Can you send me copies of episodes I have missed?

Sorry but the answer is no, I do not have time to make copies of tapes and post them to people.  I do however recommend you go to the Roswell Fan Forum site and ask in the Tape Exchange threads to get what you are after.  Link: http://www.forums4fans.com/ultimatebb.php?ubb=forum&f=12


Do you have anymore captures I can have?

I usually capture on average 250 captures per episode and only publish 100-150 of them on my site.  I keep all my captures separate from the published one because they do not contain the site logo.  For this reason I do not usually mail other captures to other people for their sites.


How do you make the captures?

I have a TV tuner card in my computer.  This allows me to put my cable TV signal into the back of my computer and watch TV on it.  I use a program called Snapshot which lets me capture stills from any TV program or video and save them to my hard drive.  I then use image programs to process them ready for my site.


What's the deal with all the adverts - popups?

They are what Fortunecity put up, where and when they feel like it. I have a large site for free and to host it on a private site would cost me too much so please cope with the adverts-popup and enjoy the site!


You have more pictures of this person than you do of that person, why?

I try select a mixture of captures to convey the story of each episode. If it appears I have been biased towards certain characters then this is not intentional.  I apologise if it seems that way.


Will this site be updated?

I have not abandoned this site, it is due to the lack of episodes I have access to.  When I get the chance to capture Roswell again, I will be looking to replace current captures with even better ones (circumstances permitting)
