A screen shot is always going to be low quality, because your browser screen display is at 72 pixels per inch. No matter what you do, capturing a webpage will always render a 72 ppi image. You can try to get larger original images to work from, or you can try to increase resolution in PS and resample, but you will not be able to increase the available information, so that's not really going to help you much.
One thing you can try as a workaround, would be to find the biggest baddest monitor around and have the owner make a screen shot and email it to you, but FAIAP you're going to be out of luck.
