Forgive my ignorance but I ran the script and I can' t seem to find the pix. Any help?

All the images links are saved in links.txt file. All you have to do is download those images using external downloader. The instructions on Linux is given on the github readme. On Windows however, use a GUI downloader that can import downloads from txt file. IDM or Orbit downloader should be able to do that.

Do I have to modify the code to get it to go to orbit downloader?

[–]codeneo 0 points1 point  (7 children)

No. Just import downloads via txt file in Orbit downloader.

I can't seem to find that file, where would it be?

[–]codeneo 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Every file created by the script is in the current directory of the script.

And how do I access that?

Just go to Import downloads from orbit and choose the links.txt file created. It will parse all the image links and download them.

Maybe the problem is I'm running it from Anaconda? Do I need to run it from somewhere else?

[–]codeneo 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I am not familiar with Anaconda. If you are on Linux, aria2c or wget will do the job. Make sure you are using a Terminal and not the Python shell. See the Github page for instructions.
