I am an artist, unfortunately of the starving variety. I
frequently download and use stock images from deviantart.com to use
for reference, but it usually requires credits and a link back to
the page that the image was downloaded from or the user's profile
page. In order to make this somewhat easier on myself I generally
download the image and then save a link to the page as a file in
windows 8.1 and rename it to match the name of the image so that I
can easily find the page again later when I need to find the
information to credit the stock creator. I am wondering if there is
a way anyone can think of using any of the tools here, Firefox
plugins or anything that could further simplify this process including
other approaches which might work better.
Anyhow, nothing urgent obviously, just thought I would ask. I
know there are tools to download entire galleries which is great,
but doesn't really help with my particular problem of needing to
provide links back to the parent page (not the image itself).
Ideally if I could just download an image off of DeviantART some
program would parse the information and download the images, create
matching named link and place them in a sub-folder generated by the
artist's user name. Or even use a robot to rip an entire gallery at
a time in the same fashion. Which of course would be useful if I
liked more images than not in a given gallery.
Sorry for the stream of consciousness question. I hope it is clear
enough to understand and thank you very much for taking the time to read it.
