Don´t you love those little tricks and tweaks that make life so much easier ? I love to download videos from google video for instance and save them as avi. A little trick does that. I also love to visit sites that let me download content without having to login or purchase a premium account. The site webshots.com has a database of more than 300 million pictures that you can browse and view as a thumbnail.
If you want to view some images in real size or download them you will have to log in. If you don´t you won´t see a picture. This is were the webshots photo catcher comes into play. It´s a website that has a form field that process webshots urls. You copy a url like this one, paste it into the form and hit get it. A download prompt for the full image appears and you are free to download it.

Hmmm. This doesn’t work for me, but even if it did you’d have to like incomplete videos (these are shorties, a preview, simply an appetizer) and in very low quality.
It´s working for me, using this bookmarklet and firefox.
The “Webshots Photo Catcher” doesn’t work, said Image Not Found. I use the “URL”, and the “direct link to image” and Nothing happend :S
