There's some there. I'm not The Rock nor have I ever been The Rock so I'm not exactly sure you'll find what you want there.

The best option is and always has been to go to youtube, find a promo to cap from (pretty much every promo ever is on youtube), go to fullscreen mode and hit print screen, go to paint, ctrl v to paste, save, then go to imgur or photobucket (personal preference), and upload.

While we're at it, I think if you really want to better yourself in promos, then format and grammar are key. Grammar makes it easier to read and format makes it look much more presentable.

You should center your entire promos by typing [center] at the beginning and [/center] at the end and typing everything else in between. I went back and checked some of your older promos and they're not 100% centered. Colors, boldness, etc all make a big difference. But it's no worries, you'll get it eventually. It seems you really want to improve and are willing to work at it Smile

It all depends on the superstar. For most, if not all of the people who are great, they get them from fan-sites for their specific superstar. The best place you can go is the place Danny linked as that's the fan-site for Rock.

Honestly, outside of fansites, the best way is just to make your own screen caps of videos you find on the Network, youtube, or anywhere else on the internet. It doesn't really take all that long to do, and you can pick and choose exactly which promo you want to take caps of. Smile

Another big thing is to practice. Practice makes perfect, as they say. IGN Rose None of us were just able to do the promos we've done right off the bat first try. Hell, I still think my promos are terrible and I've been at this for four years or so now. Sad

I believe you find the best make their own caps. Personally I'd suggest print screening youtube, resizing on Paint.Net and uploading to imgur. Unless you want to be like Jerry and have caps ranging from.all sizes from A THOUSAND DIFFERENT PROMOS.

Videos weren't working for the longest time (tried connecting my laptop to the TV display and it fucked sound and videos for me) so wasn't able to cap lolol

Indeed. Also, for capping promos, download gyazo. It'll be your best friend.
