Bulk image downloading program

Hello all,

Does anyone know if there is a free "bulk image downloader" software out there?

Meaning this software is able to download all the images inside a webpage with one stroke.

Or if not, any way to write this in php or a scripting language?

Thanks a lot!

flashget, wget, curl, offline explorer etc

above in the title listed software can all fit your need.

flashget is the easist maybe.

wget or curl is also useful if you use them in xNix env.

Offline explorer, many many such kind software can also be used to just download the image and filter out other html page.

Thanks albert,

Flashget seems nice for downloading the images in html files, but I'm specifically trying to download files that aren't used on the page and only their thumbnails are. So the code of these html pages is like:

<a href="picture.jpg"><img src="picture_thumbnail.jpg"></a>
.....

and I want to instantly download all the picture.jpg 's

Any ideas?
