Hi There !!

Greetings from Costa Rica !!

I want to know, where the snapshots taken are stored.

They are only stored in memory. If you want to keep a frame you'll have to use the Composition>Save a frame as Menu or look for a script to speed up the process. I just saved an output module template and set it as the default for Frame:

You can then just press Alt./Option + Ctrl/Cmnd + S to add the frame to the render cue and then press enter to render it.

If you want a script this is one that I used to use.

Another great script is the FXConsole from Video Copilot:

It let you take a screenshot very easily and also give access to effects with just a keystroke. I use this all the time.

I use FX Console all the time but have not really used the screenshot feature that much. It is a very good alternative. Watch the entire FFX Console tutorial by Andrew Kramer to see all that it can do.
