914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Slightly OT I want a tool that scans a thread for all pics

Posted by: jasons Sep 2 2008, 08:57 AM

I'd like to be able to scan a thread (like the member cars thread) and grab all the JPGs in it. Anyone know of a way to do that? I want to see all the pics, but I don't want to wade through the comments.

This one will pull url's for each page only:

Unfortunately, I think to really make what I want work they way I imagine, an admin would have to implement it as a feature of VBulletin.

Wouldn't it be cool just to view images in a thread? Am I guilty of liking picture books too much when I was a kid?

Try this as well. You can download the entire website for offline viewing...as an added perk you can download only images on said website!

I don't think it is the (member cars thread) that he wants to download the pictures from, more likely that thread in the sandbox...

LOL I never thought of the possibilities... But see how good my idea is?

Relatively easy to write something from scratch to do this for any given board, but difficult if you want it to work across different bulletin board software packages.
