Actually useful. Not uncommon that I'm trying to pull a logo or branding for some project or another and it's always a pain.

This is fantastic. So straightforward, gets the job done.

Cool! I would add web fonts to that list.

The web page says nothing about what it does. The <title> says "ful.co - a svelte and sveltekit related blog and agency". Very confusing.

Add the HN title to the web page?

I think you got blocked by an anti-scraper. I put in reddit.com and only got one image back.

I don't think I specifically got blocked. I haven't done anything to get around scraping restrictions like setting a fake User-Agent. If a website doesn't want to be scraped I'll just use inspect element.

Some other current limitations:

- Might miss items in a SPA that loads additional assets outside the initial html - Misses images/SVG's that are loaded with external css with background:url(...);

Can you make one that converts webp to png?

Did some brief testing and (at least for me) it works on a paywalled WSJ page and MediaWiki but not on 2channel. Reddit no, but Reddit rehosters yes.

You can do the same thing by saving a HTML file from firefox (Ctrl+S), the images will be placed in a directory next to that HTML file.

In Firefox: Cmd/Ctrl-I, click the Media tab, find the image you want and click Save As. This works even on sites that try to prevent media from being saved (by blocking referrer-less loads, etc.).

Next challenge, make it work for dynamic images (that aren't present on initial load).

Thanks! Saves me the chore of opening the Network tab on the inspector to manually do this stuff.

For those, like me, that prefer local CLI tools, I found gallery-dl yesterday (although possibly slightly different use case than ful.co).

And of course ImageMagick to easily convert images to different formats.

This just goes to OPs portfolio site, so not working
