The straight answer is no. But you CAN register yourself and upload it to YouTube then post the link here plus post a sample screenshot from your video, (If you can play it on your computer,simply pause at a suitable place and press your print screen key). This will then copy a screenshot of the complete monitor view to your clipboard and if you have for example Microsoft Word or any graphics/draw program you can then paste the screenshot into a new document or drawing, with Word you then save it as a web page which creates a web page file *.htm and a folder containing the graphics files one of which should be a jpg picture file which you can then upload to imageshack.
But first please read my crash course at:-

Tip
If you are playing your video in Windows Media Player and your screenshot comes out as a black rectangle go to tools>options>performance and
temporarily set the "video acceleration" to "None"
Note that this gives a screenshot of everthing you can see on your monitor
Alternatively I strongly recommend getting and learning the freeware version of Screenhunter
As with that lovely little utility you can capture any area you wish on the screen as a jpg format file
example here is a still picture from a quicktime (Mov) video file shot with my Nikon digital camera last Saturday morning showing some of the power of Niagara. a place quaintly shown on an AAA map as having a nearby airport called allegedly Buffalo- Niagra Airport
