I'm in ur websitez, downloadin ur images

A python script which can download hundreds of lolcat images!

Wikipedia says :  
A lolcat is an image combining a photograph of a cat with text intended to contribute humour. The text is often idiosyncratic and grammatically incorrect, and -


Well, we all know the awesome, funny, occasionally witty lolcats. And we have a bunch of 'em at the fabulous icanhascheezburger.com

So here is a python script, to download all the lolcat images ever posted in the above website, starting from the very first image:




 In order to run the script, extract the files into a folder, and (in linux) run the command

python getLolcats.py

The script will download images to the same folder, grouped into separate sub-folders.
* You can optionally double-click the script and choose Run in terminal
* You can run the python script in Windows or Mac, if you have python installed
* The script do not download the PG-13 rated images from the website. To download them as well, use this modified script.

You can stop the script anytime by closing the terminal or pressing Ctrl+C. Running the script again will resume download from the last image. To avoid broken and lost images while doing so, refer to the README.txt file in the downloaded zip (title Resuming without losing any image)

Now grab all the lolcats right inside your 'puter!




Hope you liked the little python script :)
