I'm setting up a gallery2 site for a family and they want me to move their photo albums from their mac website to the new gallery. I'm not sure how to do this. I don't have access to their mac, so I need to import the photos directly from their website. I've tried to use the web import tool, but it is only grabbing the thumbnails off of the website, and not digging deeper to find the links to the actual photos. Is there a way to do this? Perhaps a plugin that I'm not aware of?

Thanks

@add item from web:
heh, yes, it's not the most advanced spider / leeching tool. but i think that's good.

why don't you just ask your family members for access? i'm sure there's a better way.
else you might want to use wget or another tool to fetch all the images from that site.
