Title: How do download all gamecube covers
Post by: Sha on February 08, 2018, 11:41:05 AM
Hey guys, I'd like to update the  libretro project (https://github.com/libretro/libretro-thumbnails/tree/master/Nintendo%20-%20GameCube) with more gamecube thumbnails; is there a way to download all the gamecube covers at once instead of manually ? Or would someone have a link to a collection of gamecube covers in good quality ?


Thanks for your help

It would cost the site too much bandwidth to do things that way.

You click one cover, and then the download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download
And then you go back and click another cover, and then download

Repeat that a couple more times and you got them all

I guess learning how to make a bot to do that would be faster but still a lot of work lol..

Any chance you could upload them somewhere for me admin ?... If you have access to the files and the time to do it  :D...

Theres only 661 total GameCube games.  Would be faster to start downloading now than having anyone really.... help....

Most anyone looking for a "download all" is looking to make a profit from our non-profit covers.

That, and since we don't take donations to keep this site up... yeah... bandwidth is an issue if we allow that type of downloads
