A bunch of you probably know already that I'm obsessed with screencaps of this film.
I've devoted hours to searching for caps of this movie, and love them all! It's an obsession, and I decided to use my expertise to share some knowledge!
aeillill's screencaps: flickr.com/photos/aeillill/sets/72157594396678542/
Only up to the very beginning of "Part of That World," but they are platinum, and there are a bunch of 'em! 321, to be precise.
Sasha's screencaps fever-of-fate.com/index.php/caps/view/little_mermaid_the/
This one is a classic, well-known gallery, associated with Animation Archive, livejournal, and many other sites. 1191 screencaps, all from the original version! The only drawback is that they all have "Fever of Fate" written on them, along with a border, so you may have to do some cropping.
Liza's screencaps: www.animationarchive.net/Feature%20Films/The%20Little%20Mermaid/Screen%20Caps%202/index.php
Platinum, 984 caps, uploaded within DAYS of the DVD's release! Placed in Animation Archives, brilliantly done, all very good!
Disney4you's screencaps: www.disney4you.com/gallery.html
Four whole pages of screencaps! There is a slight disorganization on the first three, but the fourth has all of its caps in order. Also, the third page is very small, because they got their DVD while capping--thus, the fourth page is the end of the movie in Platinum. The first three pages are the original version. 167, 236, 51, and 105 pics...a total of 559 caps!
Disney Promises: www.disneypromises.com/index2.htm
624 caps! Pics 1-305 (pages 1-16) are from their original version, but then they switch to Platinum for pages 16-32! NOTE: the Platinum pics are vastly stretched, so if you want them to match proportionally, you have to resize them! But it is worth it.
For a direct link here: s53.photobucket.com/albums/g55/disneyxgurl/The%20Little%20Mermaid/
Disney Dreams: disney-dreams.net/gallery.php
NOTE: There are NO Little Mermaid caps here as of now, but I will inform you IMMEDIATELY when they do come! An earlier post on the homepage promised a HUGE gallery of caps, so I'm keeping the hopes up!
KimmyMarie's: www.geocities.com/kimmymarie24/gallery_main.html
This site got me started on my capping craze! A big site with plenty of images, it is a WONDERFUL complement to Fever of Fate (Sasha's caps). Rarely do the two sites have the same cap overlapping--thus, you get more variety! Original version.
Enchanted Forest: www.enchantedxforest.net/EnchantedForest/ScreenSnaps.html
157 screencaps, not too many, and I can't tell which version they come from, but...it's a batch. It looks like it is possibly a dark platinum version, but I can't tell. It also appears to be missing some, or under construction, so it is possible that more may come.
jsilverywitch's: community.livejournal.com/disneycaps/8803.html#cutid1
2097 screencaps, a LOT of them, with attention paid to more important sequences (as in, 11 caps of Ariel surfacing), but still plenty of other scenes! BIG caps, and also, composed in three ZIP files. Still, though, a lovely bunch! Original version.
thelittlemermaid.8m: thelittlemermaid.8m.com/char.html
A nice selection of images from the original version, organized by character. Pics from both movies, and clipart as well, in some cases...the sequel does not have the largest selection, though.
MyLittleMermaid.com: www.mylittlemermaid.com/tlmpics.html
This site has a nice, small collection of pics from the original film. 100 in total. Most of them can be found on the other sites, but there are some unique ones, or simply different brightness or dimension. Either way, it's a nice stop. It also includes a gallery of the sequel, if you do some navigation.
Veronica's: blissful.nu/content/screencaps/thelittlemermaid/index.php
THIS is the QUEEN of the screencaps. Platinum quality, neatly proportioned, well-organized....over FOUR THOUSAND, that's right, 4000, MMMM, four-zero-zero-zero, 172-pages'-worth of Little Mermaid goodness!
faeriegeek's: faeriegeek.tripod.com/the_little_mermaid_screencaps/
A new one, apparently, under construction...22 pages' worth, over 300 caps so far (the grotto was just destroyed in cap sequences, and more will probably be included in it). The downside is that they are small caps, and not perfect quality, but who knows? It might have what you're looking for. I can't tell which version it is, either--possibly Platinum, but I'm leaning toward original.
Animated Lust's caps: www.fantasykat.com/shows/littlemermaid.html
Click on the links to the characters to see more, somewhat smaller--but still excellent!--caps from both the platinum and original version! This one features dozens of platinum caps, enjoy!
Disney Gallery caps: www.disney-gallery.tk/
LOTS of caps, 500+, but only up through part of "Part of That World," apparently....platinum quality, but I don't think the gallery is going to be finished, it was last updated in October of 2006. But still, more caps! Just navigate through into "Disney Classics" and you're home free! Oh, and you can find a bunch more, up through "Under the Sea," if you right-click on the pics and highlight the jpg URL; it only goes up to 999, though. If anyone can find the continuation, if there is any, please tell me! I've searched, but I can't find anymore....
Mike's caps: www.ultimatedisney.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16451&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
Less than a hundred, I think, but they're nice ones! I liked 'em...have a look! You have to scroll down, but they are there! Platinum, too!
Wilfred's caps: wdd.dtdns.net/php/images_niv3.php?LANGUE=en&CATEGORIE=1&FILM=33
Over a hundred caps here, from the original version.
beyondrecovery's caps: community.livejournal.com/llamazon/2293.html
1013 caps, all platinum! You have to download them in .zip format and join the livejournal community, so it's a bit of a hassle, but it is WELL worth it! It almost complements Veronica's caps, all of them looking good and of nice shots! Vanessa, Triton, Eric, Flounder, Ursula, and plenty of Ariel!
djcapslock caps: www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=dj_capslock&keyword=Animation-Little+Mermaid&filter=all
Four different sets of caps here, but don't get too excited! The second link on the page is just silverywitch's set again, so don't bother downloading it, too. ALL of the sets are downloads, .zip files. They are all from the original version, NOT platinum, though I have placed a request for platinum caps. Don't think that it's all bad, though. The fourth set is the one you will really want--4606 caps. It's like Veronica's, only non-Platinum. In all honesty, I didn't really find it to be the best--it gave some caps, but you really begin to like the Platinum caps too much and it's hard to go back. You might like them better, though. NOTE: You have to join dj_capslock to get these! Procedure is the same as the above.
MORE Animation Archive caps: www.animationarchive.net/Feature%20Films/The%20Little%20Mermaid/Screen%20Caps%203/index.php
2665 caps. HUGE size, platinum-quality, and an excellent variety. Not too specific or special, but hey, it's an add-on.
EDIT: Animation Archive has been destroyed, but most of the caps can still be found at dj_capslock.
Some deviantART caps: www.deviantart.com/deviation/54629950/
A bunch of gigantic caps, all featuring Ariel! Some really good ones...you have to grab 'em yourself by downloading and PrntScrn, but they are worth it! A great selection.
Now, please mind, there are other sites out there with caps, but these are the ones that I have used, found, and enjoyed. Quite a few sites will simply have copies of other pages' images, tiny numbers of common caps, or pics of such low quality that you can't do anything with them but hunt online for a better version. But all of these pages will provide you with a different image in some way or another!
Also, the sites referenced often have galleries of other films, so feel free to look around when you get there!
If you have a specific cap in mind, some sites will take requests--if you're not picky, though, you can go to YouTube and trawl through music videos and then hit "PrntScrn" on a point. I've done that in the past, it works decently, though the image is small and of a lower quality.
NOTE: This is NOT a request for people to stop capping, or even an excuse for cappers to desist in their activities! There are still many caps that can be used, many tastes and requests to oblige! If anyone knows where a gallery is that was not covered here, or has one of their own to share, please post a link in a reply to this! I'm ALWAYS eager to find a new cap, and I'm sure that others would love it, too!
Enjoy the pages!
