Question

Help answer this question below.

I am looking to download a large number of images from a website, each of which are stored on separate pages. I could do it by hand, but I would prefer not to. Is there some way to automate this?

    I don't think there's an all-round solution for this kind of thing. I've tried to find one myself a while back. Trying to archive photos from a site that was going to close. But I didn't really find a good solution, finally having made some half-automated, half-by-hand solution.

    It would help if you could tell us what website it is. Maybe then, a proper solution is available.

    • It's http://www.rice-boy.com

      It's one of my favourite webcomics.

      I tried Imacros and it couldn't do it, to my knowledge. Kept looking for the same file I downloaded to record the macro on the new page, which wasn't helpful.

      I looked around for a program that would do it, and I found links to a few, but they were all dead. So I looked for the programs on their own, and nothing came up.
      They were EZ-Pics and MediaQueue.

    • Hmm... All the images are named like: http://www.rice-boy.com/see/xxx.gif

      With the xxx replaced by the actual number of the picture.

      I'll see if I can find anything for you...

    • I seem to have found a program that works.
      PicaLoader 1.7.1.

      So far, it's finding what I want it to find.
