Signal boost: FK promo photos online

Signal boost to [personal profile] switchbladeeyes's post:

Kristin H. has shared good quality copies of almost all the color Forever Knight press package promo photos, including two I hadn't seen before. See her archive on Facebook. I was able to download copies even though I don't have a Facebook account. (They raised memories of the very few Starlog issues with articles about FK, which I read at the public library.)

FK images, whether promo stills or episode screenshots, are much rarer online than they used to be. I imagine that this is mostly due to age, but partly also to the passing of DVD drives attached to computers. If there's a way to screenshot streaming, I don't know it.

I remember when you could buy some of these photos at cons. Maybe also from fan clubs back in the day (?). Neat to see some of those same pictures again plus, for me, so many more. It's great a fan has worked so hard to preserve these pictures and make them available for others to view.

Out of curiosity, I pulled up Apple TV (where I bought FK) on my iPad to see what would happen if I tried to take a screenshot. Turns out blank! I bet your theory on screenshots is correct.

Yes, most streaming platforms have this built-in anti-screenshot software (or whatever). It's the same with Netflix.

Kristin has really lucked out on the promo shoots slides. :) So glad she posted the HQ-versions, although FB really does a "good" job in diminishing their quality.
Her fan videos are also very good. I think she did the ones that are on the DVDs as extras as well.
