I am trying to scrape some images from DeviantArt and Pintrest for a project of mine using wget and I can't seem to get any images at all. Here is my wget code:

wget --recursive --page-requisites --no-directories --level=4 --input-file=/path/to/list --accept=jpeg,jpg,bmp,gif,png --directory-prefix=/path/to/output

I was wondering if I could not get this to work because DeviantArt and Pintrest are not static pages but are dynamic using some programming language. Does this affect weget's ability to do its job?

  • Maybe these sites are protected from mass download, because your command works with a specific URL: wget --recursive --page-requisites --no-directories --level=4 --accept=jpeg,jpg,bmp,gif,png --directory-prefix=/mnt/Storage/test/ http://img07.deviantart.net/005d/i/2017/003/3/0/artoria_pendragon_by_deadxcross-dau2etr.jpg. But it doesn't work when file name is not mentioned: wget --recursive --page-requisites --no-directories --level=4 --accept=jpeg,jpg,bmp,gif,png --directory-prefix=/mnt/Storage/test/ http://img07.deviantart.net/005d/i/2017/003/3/0/. – pa4080 Jan 03 '17 at 21:14
