The [MLP wiki](https://mlp.fandom.com/wiki/My_Little_Pony_Friendship_is_Magic_Wiki) is a very good source of (G4) screencaps. They're sorted by episode, as a whole (see all the "gallery" links [here](https://mlp.fandom.com/wiki/Friendship_is_Magic_animated_media)) or by character (check [character(s) name] image gallery under "other links" on their individual page, [this is the result](https://mlp.fandom.com/wiki/Princess_Luna/Gallery) for Luna for example). Note that they have different pages for Equestria Girls [episodes](https://mlp.fandom.com/wiki/Equestria_Girls_animated_media) and [characters](https://mlp.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Equestria_Girls_characters). The pony and EqG versions of each character (should) link to each other.

Also note that direct links to the pictures can't be hotlinked, at least as far as I've seen. You want to link to a specific screencap, you better find the equivalent on Derpibooru or elsewhere.

Not sure how rights and credit work about uploading a screencap from the Wiki here though. Or using them for memes. (Besides a probable 'most people already do it anyway...') But they should show you which episode and/or scene to check if you want to make your own screencaps.

If *that's* what you meant, well, you'd need to have the episodes on your computer, then play with pausing at the right time and 'print screen' to get what you want, then paste it in GIMP/Photoshop/something. Preferably with a high-quality video player, and it's best if it's one that allows frame-by-frame or slowing down the video (because rewinding and double-tapping the space bar for five minutes to get the right frame isn't fun).

Oh yeah, screenshot while in fullscreen too obviously. Tweak your screen's resolution for the right resolution if necessary. Not sure if it's necessary to decrease the resolution when your screen's bigger than the video you want to screenshot though.



**edit:** Oh, speaking of screencaps. Just today I noticed that an adequate way to make the nighttime scenes of Spring Breakdown (like [this one](/images/2617504)) look like day instead, for example to see Rainbow's gorgeous concert dress in all its glory, was a simple 'white balance' on the screencap with GIMP.
