WebRipper might be the best tool to use if you need to take pictures or media files from the web and save them to your own PC. The program is totally free and offers several filter options to allow you to control where, when and how the files are downloaded.
The downside is that it will take a little ‘bit of tweaking before you get things just right - and that might frustrate some people. The good side is, this program was once thought to be forgotten about but was just updated recently.
It also supports more than just picture formats. Here is the full list of file types supported.
Supported file-types:
Images: JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP
Videos: MPEG, AVI, QuickTime, Real Video, WMV
Audio: MP3, WAV, Real Audio, MIDI
Documents: DOC, XLS, PPT, PDF, TXT
Other: Flash, EXE, TORRENT, ZIP
The hidden gem of this program is the search function that will allow you to scrap the Web for images tht meet your keyword and size requirements.
Now there are perfectly good reasons to use this tool. Lets say you wanted to save a long list of photos your sweetie sent you of your Christmas vacation together? Saving each one, one by one would be a pain - but using this to take them from the Web makes the job much easier.
