i was needing a bot and not a imacros script...it is not a bot.
Wrong. A visual basic script, no matter if it is based on iMacros browser or not, is a
bot: A bot (robot apheresis) is a computer program, mimicking the behavior of a human.
I have created in few months more than 100,000 Facebook accounts (including creating their email accounts and confirming on them the facebook confirmation email, and setting random settings), and I scrapped in 2-3 hours, from dating sites more than 500,000 unique pictures (few KBs each pic, with 6 mbps adsl 5 years ago) for their avatars, using my bots = visual basic scripts based on iMacros. Don't come here to waste my time with such derisory shades about bots and scripts.
Even i can make an iMacros script.
I think you cannot. You didn't know even how load needed lists to scrape the photos, and definitely you would never make a script as efficient like mine. Your script will stop at first difficult after few photos scrapped, and wont be able to retake the work at the same point were it stopped. Mine has error handling and will scrape thousand photos in a row without stopping, with as many threads as you want, and it can include stop/resuming feature. However the limit won't be the number of threads, but your Internet connection, downloading several MB pictures through a VPN... being the time browsing photo-urls in background just miliseconds, compared for several seconds every download. With my bot, the time you will need for the scrapping will be defined entirely by your internet connection. If you can make the same, why you don't do it?
Imacros doesnt support multi threading and all that.
Again, you are completely wrong. Though it is still valid, it is not a script for a plugin. I told you it is a Visual Basic Script, based on iMacros browser (repeat, iMacros browser, not the iMacros extension for Firefox). The video demo was just a demo to show working script. It will be base for my visual basic script. The VBS can launch in background as many threads as desired. But again, with 10 threads you wont download 10 times faster, and excessive threads will you even slow down.
and it will take months and months to download images one by one through imacros.
Again wrong. My demo with 1 only thread takes 2s per photo (HD photos with several MB each). That is 1800 per hour, 18000 in 10h. To scrape 1,400,000 HD pictures, that is, the WHOLE Creative Commons 1.0 category in flickr, you will take 32 days. This is with one only thread. With 10 threads in my script you luckily will take 10 days. But this is with my 200mbps fiber cable Internet connection. With your VPN connection, you will take months to scrape all images, no matter if you use visual basic script oir javascript or how many threads you launch. You are quite unrealistic with your perspectives. You will not even be able to scrape all them: to solve the hard disk problem, you say that you will review ALL scraped photos in batches of 20k, and delete those you do not need. So in few days you are going to check manually the whole flickr Creative Commons 1.0 directory... Indeed you have birds in your head.
Plus i have to search by every keyword and scrape 50 pictures and then again and again do that shit.I want something where i click and it will download 20-30k images either one by one or with 10 threads
Not right. I shown you how to set the desired number to scrape (50 or 20000) and press button to scrape all them. And as I said you lot of times, with VBS you can launch as many threads as you like.
At last i donot recieved or used your imacros script.
Of course I am not to send it to you, I trusted you once, working with not any advance, and I do not trust you anymore. Your word have not any value for me anymore. If you want software, pay for it.
Imacros is not considered as bot or software it just a plugin\extension
There is a iMacros plugin for firefox, chrome, etc, but iMacros is also a browser for itself, and my bot is not only the script for iMacros, it is the Visual basic script, with error handling, settings, and multithread. You must review your concept of
bot, and if you only want accept javascript, C, or whatever, you MUST specify before giving green light.
To finish, I will repeat what I told you by skype: if you want to scrape the url for the flickr html frame holding the picture, as well as the file url, you MUST browse the searches list (or the whole category pics list) mandatorily.
You are free to disregard my explanations and keep your ignorance, but do not take your lacking knowledge for granted, wasting my time, and even if you were right in your senseless requirements, do not break your word if it was your fault omitting such senseless requirement, because, again, you waste others time at the same time that it devalues your word.
My bot fulfill ENTIRELY your requirements, works perfectly, and you have no real reason for not to pay for what you requested and I created.
Use jdownloader. I was able to get quite a few. Make sure you have plenty of disk available....
This is not valid since he wants, for every picutre, to scrapte the URL for the html holder of the picture in flicker, also the URL of the file, and the picture only in the original size version (the higher quality) getting the list HTML url + file URL + picture original size with original name (matching the file URL).
About disk space, he want to check one by one all 1,427,319 pictures to decide what to delete and what to keep, that is, he want make his own selection from ALL 1,427,319 pictures. Of course he will do it this faster that my "no-bot" VB script. Will he launch several threads for the checkings?
