Image Puller / Simple, A Little Interesting - Shoot - Dec 6, 2014

[Image: f5de33cbfb21cd19f56df2e00d680470.png]

Short Description
I have created this open source as an example, the code could be altered better but works pretty fast, allows you to pull images off of a website and save them to a txt file. Good for ripping websites. dont flame and/or hate because it is simple but havent really seen them made in VB.NET.

like i have stated, this is a simple image grabber, im working on that right now though :) just cant seem to get it to work right

Step 1: Stop using a WebBrowser. (Yes, i looked at the source.)
Step 2: Use WebClient, HttpClient, or Web Requests (Order of Easiness)
Step 3: Use Regex to find the <img> Tags.
Step 4: Separate it all from the UI Thread to prevent Form Freezing.

I made a similar project not long ago (Click to View)

And yeah, follow the steps Nikey has suggested. Especially step 4. If you also add the ability to download images use multithreading. It goes so much faster than linear one by one downloading.

That's fine and all, but why stop at simple? Why not make it into something you would use? The improvements suggested direct the application into that direction.
