Hello. I was wondering if anybody could provide me with just screen caps of some of the title cards seen in episodes from Seasons 4 and 5? Y'know, those things seen before the opening where you hear a guy say "Mystery Science Theater 3000, Show XXX, Reel 1"? I've been able to obtain most of them through various ways (eg: three episodes re-issued by Shout have them intact, which I posted about here), and although I'd prefer to have full length episodes with everything intact, all I'm asking for is just a screenshot of each individual title card. So, here are the ones I'm looking for: 406 - Attack of the Giant Leeches 408 - Hercules Unchained 409 - The Indestructible Man 415 - The Beatniks 420 - The Human Duplicators 423 - Bride of the Monster 504 - Secret Agent Super Dragon 513 - The Brain that Wouldn't Die 515 - The Wild World of Batwoman 517 - Beginning of the End I'm also a little unsure of two of these episodes. I have copies of 420 and 423 that both have a "Turn Down Your Lights" card instead of a title card. Have these episodes always been like this, or do I have some odd, alternate versions of them?

I'm pretty sure 420 & 423 had them (423 had Bela's face for a picture, IIRC). I don't recall 406 having one, though. I've been holding on to most of my old EP mode copies of the episodes just so I could preserve many of these (I always made sure to tape them) as well as the Mike era episode specific bumpers missing from the Rhino releases.
Do you have the one from "City Limits"? I only ever saw that one on a repeat airing during a marathon in September 93, never did catch it (I remember the picture was of the skullface biker). I'll get you some screencaps of these, or if you want, I can upload some AVI or MP4 video files of just these slates. (it was an important part of the show to me, I learned for the first time how TV shows numbered themselves, and helped me keep track of episodes, not to mention it helped when taping reruns)
EDIT: Just checked my tapes. 406 never had it, same goes for 517. 519 was the final one. 504 is on-screen for all of a split second for some reason, but is visible in pausing.

Here's a small video file of all of the title slates from 404-519. As I said, no 406, or 517 were ever shown to my knowledge. 504 is blink and you miss it, 410 goes black after a moment, and 519 lacks audio. These are how they always aired, IIRC. These are all taped by me from nearly 20 years ago, except for 502 & 503, which I just had to swipe from Youtube since I'm missing my copies. Enjoy! rapidshare.com/files/2525184694/MST3Kslates.avi

He just took a photo of his television screen so it's far from the best quality, but it's the only image I can find of it.

Glad to be of help! Wow! I didn't imagine that after all! Thanks for sharing the link, I missed it first time around.

Sorry to bump this, but is there any chance somebody else might have downloaded the video jlh made? I accidentally deleted it awhile ago and the link is dead now. I even sent him a PM not too long ago concerning this, but I see he hasn't been active on the board in a long time.

They call that the "slate" in the Biz; as far as I can tell, Comedy Central used to broadcast the slate (for some weird reason) before every episode in Season 4, and Season 5 up through Teenage Strangler, I think.
Of course, I could be wrong.

Depends on what you mean by no-hassle. While I've never uploaded anything to any of the following sites myself, these are both good services that I've downloaded from in the past. You can get a free account at www.mediafire.com or mega.co.nz without too much hassle from the looks of it.

Dropbox and Google Drive are also good for online storage, they're what I use nowadays.
