What's a good, free website ripper?

[1Cheap2Crazy]

I'm looking for a free website ripper. All I want it to do is open up the thumbnail pictures to their larger size and then save it. I get tired of clicking on each pic to enlarge it then right click-save, then close tab. I'm using Firefox. I used to use an extension for firefox but it caused to many problems with TBE.

Thanks,

Ok, I'm trying WinHTTrack, but I can't figure out how to download the large .jpegs. If I go here how do I setup WinHTTrack to so that it will "click" on the thumbnails to open the larger picture and download that pic. At least I got my proxy setup!

The size of the file you are ripping is of no concern to the program.
You may wnt to exclude some of those links found on pages you want to rip
Httrack will follow each to its conclusion and get all those files also
and that can lead to a real mess.
Setting the exclusion rules for each rip can be time consuming but it is worth it.

Using the page you refernced as an example you would end up with that whole site and any others they have links to because of those two links at the bottom of the page of any of the expanded jpegs,
one link is to the index and the other the thumbnails ,assuming you want neither of those
specify those links in the exclusion file.
If you want say the thumbnails check that page for embedded links.

Sounds like a pain but it is not.
Planning and Engineering is 90% of the job.

With that link you should get 22 images.
This is how I set up the exclusion file.
