Default Grabbing a wallpaper off Youtube...

OK so since the latest Black Eyed Peas video has come out (Don't Stop The Party) I've become a little obsessed with it.

Don't rate the song too much but the footage is absolutely outstanding.

YouTube - The Black Eyed Peas - Don't Stop The Party

At 4:51(ish, watch 4:45 to 4:55 if you're not watching the whole thing) a big blue sign pops up behind a DJ reading "Put your ******* hands up"

I'd really, really like this as my wallpaper on my Blackberry 8900. Unfortunately my old computer isn't capable of anything beyond 360p, and even when I do get a screen grab the resolution is wrong.

I've attached what I've got so far (apologies for the profanity) - but if someone could get a good few high resolution, blackberry screen size friendly shots of it, that'd be much appreciated.

I'm sure a few other people wouldn't mind it either... it really is a cool shot.

even in high-res, the image will get distorted trying to make it fit in portrait mode... have you tried using the thumbs that you attached...?

I don't need portrait, just 480x360 or something similar. I've got it close now, I can have it with a little distortion, with the sides missing or in letterbox format. It's fine it was a long shot anyway with all the text so close to the edges of the image.

Looks pretty good as a computer wallpaper actually, I wasn't expecting that.

Thanks for your help though.
