Download Random Images with SeqDownload

Many websites post random images every time their page is reloaded, webcams come to my mind as well that load a new image once every few minutes. Saving a sequence of images is really painful if you do it manually. You have to click reload, save the image, reload, save the image. SeqDownload is a nice little freeware application that automates this task for you, download the program from the link above and unpack it into a directory of your choice - there is no installation involved, run it right fom the location you unpacked the files to.

The first start shows a empty table, click on new to add a new automated task. You will have to provide a url of either the image that is constantly reloaded or of a webpage that displays a random image. Select the interval that the image will be downloaded and compared to the existing ones, choose a format for the saved images, select an extension and finally click on create new item.

SeqDownloader automatically downloads the image in the interval that you have specified during creation. If a new image appears it will be saved according to your rules. If no new image exists nothing will be saved.
