Photoleague downloads by subject matter
Posted: Fri Aug 10, 2007 4:28 am
Been a while since I tried Picaloader and this new version seems to be a huge improvement over whatever the previous version I tried out once.
Anyway, my favorite amateur photography site is actually a Korean site called photoleague:
http://www.photoleague.co.kr
Picaloader does allow me to download each and every picture from the site, but that is more than what I want. What I really want to do is just to download all of the high-res pictures (the ones that end in _2.jpg) of just a single subject matter.
Even though my native language is English, using a Korean dictionary I have learned how to navigate the site. (I also use the English buttons; previous, next, and list.)
If I see a thumbnail (ending in _1.jpg) of a mountain, I click on it. It then goes to a slightly resized picture of the original and has a description below it.

And here the picture would be a highquality, and sometimes watermarked picture:
http://www.photoleague.co.kr/imgsvr/gal ... 2435_2.jpg
In the case of the frame, though, in the description next to the words 소제별 (subject matter) appearing right below the English previous list and next buttons, there are two classifications of subject matter category: 산(mountains) and 여름 (summer).
If I click on the picture in the frame it activates a javascript that shows me the real size original (also ending in _2.jpg). If I click on the subject matter category 산 (mountains), it will take me to the thumbnails of all of the mountain pictures.
To make it more difficult, some pictures require a login at the following URL:
http://www.photoleague.co.kr/template/m ... _login.asp
and when the picaloader automatic login seems to fail (I am a member and I do have a username and password), it must take me to some other page and I start downloading pictures from all of the topics.
I would like to configure Picaloader to download just the realsize originals (the one you get from clicking once on the thumbnail, and then again on the resized picture), from a single topic.

The closest I've been able to get is the first page of the subject matter category.
