Getting stills off DV tape

I have asked for help before but still can't figure this out. Maybe I am the only one doing this this way.

I recorded stills onto tape while on vacation thinking I could later print out these "photos." I have successfully captured them using "capture image" and have used them in movies. However, I cannot print them or email them to anyone because they are absolutely tiny thumbnail size when I am using them outside VF.

Am I doing something wrong or is this feature (recording stills on tape) not meant for photos? Would it be different if I used a still capture card?

Video factory (and its capture utility) captures a still the size of your preview window, which normally is pretty small. Either make your preview window the largest possible size (switching your monitor to a higher resolution if necessary) or right click and choose 'preview at actual size' and then capture your still frame.
