Arghhh lost an old webshots series

[Aloo]

I thought I had an old webshots series saved down on an old hard drive - I checked the HD and it turns out it's not there. Gone gone gone.

This was one of the best ever so I would really appreciate it if anyone else has it. I am sure someone else must remember it. There was a group of girls on the way to an event on a coach / bus - I think it was a sports event (I am sure it was American). The whole sequence was captured beautifully, the girl is showing some signs of desperation but nothing is mentioned in the captions, then girl laughs, wet patch appears on jeans. The girls stop their coach and actually get off the bus to go and buy the girl some more jeans, and there were photos of her inside the shop and everything. I think she had her sweater tied round her pissy jeans when they went shopping.

If anyone recalls what I might be talking about or has the sequence I would be ever so grateful if they could share it with me!

Thanks
Aloo

Haha... haven't seen that one in a while.

It amazes me how many women have drawn out full-blown accidents in their pants and don't do anything about it. Seems to me that in the time it took to take these pics this particular chick could have at the very least pulled her pants down as she was (presumably) wetting while standing in the middle of the bus aisle. The panties were a total loss by image 2... but she could have saved the jeans from a total soaking.

I remember this classic set. I get the feeling it wasn't the first time she had wet herself in public. Can't seem to save photos on webshots anymore. Does anyone know how to do it?

This is a great set. I've got it on a back-up hard disk. Thanks to gastonnc for posting the link to the full, good-times site.

That's the one! You absolute legend. Thanks a million!

Scotsboy you just need to hit PrtSc on your keyboard, open MS Paint, paste and crop accordingly, save it as a jpeg and Bob's your pissy uncle.

Scotsboy and Aloo, there is an easier way to save the pics on webshots. Get the Web Developer plug-in for Firefox or Chrome at http://chrispederick.com/work/web-developer/ and after it is installed, right click on the pic and select "Inspect Element."

This will open up a window at the bottom of your screen showing the HTML code around the pic. In this case, it highlights the overlay that prevents you from saving the pic. However, right above it is the URL for the pic itself. Just highlight it and copy the URL. Open a new tab in your browser and past in the URL. Then save the pic the way you normally would.

It sounds more complicated than it actually is. You can grab any pic this way quickly and easily. Try it on the webshots and you will see what I mean.

Saving the photo

Good info on the plug-in, Patches...

I find that you can accomplish essentially the same thing without the plug-in, in Firefox, by using [View Page Source].

The page source code contains a URL that can be cut and pasted into a new browser window, which will present the photo in question as a clean .jpeg

Then you can simply right click and save the image like you normally would, as you explained.

Yes, you have to be able to recognize the URL within the source code. And the source code isn't formatted very well. But CTRL+F within the source code works great for finding the bit of code that contains the string .jpg

With that being said, I think the first hit I got on CTRL+F was a URL that only gave me a thumbnail of the photo. It was the second hit that gave me the URL for the full size image.

Don't understand why people are making this more complex than it needs to be - simplest solution, use Opera as your browser, right click and Inspect Element, then right click the photo link and Open in Background Tab. It's that easy!

Why people are making things more complex?

For some people, it is not more complex. I have a lot of web developer tools readily available in my browser, so if I want to get something like this done, I just take a look at how the protection works (in my case using Firebug) and using the same tool, I circumvent it.

Furthermore, installing another browser just to download a picture may be a bit over the top :P

Oh and please don't take screenshots and put them in paint. If you save them as BMP they get huge, if you save them as PNG, they're still big and if you save them as JPG, they look like crap (and this is the wrong forum for crap ). Just downloading the originals gives no loss in quality (obviously) and is much faster to do.

Once you are in View Page Source search for "_ph" (without the quotes). That will give you the link for the regular size jpg.

If you choose view full size from the webshots page and then View Page Source search for "_fs" (without the quotes) and that will give you the larger size jpg if there is one, otherwise "_fs" will not be found.

Hope this helps.

I just use Quick Screen Capture... Took about a minute to save 3 pics. I don't know why anyone needs more add-ons to slow things down.

No add in needed in Opera, it's just part of the normal browser. And screen captures are what they are called - captures of the screen. If you're going to the trouble of saving the pic, why not save the pic rather than a less good, unnecessary bits that come with a still of the whole screen!?

Those are awesome pix, I'd like to hear more about the story behind that.
