I need somebody to make a scraper for me because I can't do it myself.

The scraper needs to do the following:


  • Allow person to put in a search string
  • Hover over image, copy image location
  • Change one letter in the URL
  • Save file in a folder, folder that is saved in is determined by a piece of text on the main page
  • Move to next image
  • Keep doing this until there are no images left for that search string

I'm not sure if I explained this that well, feel free to contact me via PM if you can do this and how much it'll set me back.

So are we talking about a google image scraper but it only grabs the enlarged thumbnail from the mouse-over (then changes one letter somewhere in the url)->saves it to a dir, repeat until page is done?

I'm confused.

It's not for google, but yes it would be similar to that in the way it works. It also needs to save each image into a folder based on a piece of text which can be scraped from the site as well.

The letter than needs to be changed is always in the same position (e.g fakedomain.com/pq/morerandomshitgoeshere348273842732472938 => fakedomain.com/ps/morerandomshitgoeshere348273842732472938)
