Today I added another button to the web tab. This button lets users plug in a web url, and then photobomb will try to display all the images on that page. So for example, I've screen scaped cute overload to grab a couple of the pictures.
I was able to do this efficiently despite my complete ineptitude with regular expressions because of strycore. strycore is a fellow Ubuntu community member who took over a silly little program that I started called lolz. I had written a bunch of crappy screen scraping code using split(whatever) to get images from funny sites. strycore wrote some solid regex based code that I was able to snipe and modify for more general screen scraping.
As you can see, I am completely out of ideas for easy ways to make the buttons. I suppose I should create something that looks like a search, something that looks like an image on a page, and something that looks like a web page. Oh well, in the meantime, at least I have tooltips :)
Speaking of tooltips, I haven't been *totally* slacking on photobomb. The other night I added tooltips so you can see the file names (or URLs) of images in the get images tab area.
I assume you mean 'weak' instead of 'week' in that screen shot.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that this code is useful :)
ReplyDeleteInstead of using icons, you can use buttons with text.
