How big is your database?
nostra:
I use the Kinopoisk.ru (they have a pretty good selection of posters there) script for posters. Screenshots are created automatically from the video file.
doust:
Ok, I have used them now Nostra, overcame the language problem, and found the pictures of the actors handy, so then I found out about the poster section using the last film which I saw which I fell in love with called "Welcome To Dongmakgol", the trouble is that the files are so small, (12kb) which renders them useless as when required they come out the size of a UK postage stamp?
I did manage to get some pretty decent ones from the main site, sadly this is no good for older films. The hunt is still on :)

Wow, 507MB for 4490 entries? How many images?

Lots. ;D
Posters (box art, actually) for most movies, screenshots for many, and at least one photo for every person. It adds up!

Data1001:
Seeing as I've been entering data over the course of about 5 or 6 months, you'd think I'd be further along -- but I have only entered a fraction of my movies into the database so far. (I've done most of the "easy" work -- those titles which exist as files, rather than DVDs or VHS. Yes, videotape. I'm old school. ;D )
Right now, PVD shows I have 1017 movies, but that's not entirely accurate, since a not-insignificant number of those entries are TV series. Every entry in my database (including each TV episode) has a poster and several screenshots (whew, that's the part that took the most time, over the past several months). It shows I have 48,142 people in the Db. Current size of my database is 883MB.
AimHere:
Up to 1759 movies, 3806 people, 700MB.
Still have a ton of movies to enter. Will it ever end??? :P
