PrintRoom Albums

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

I today had the unfortunate experience of having to deal with PrintRoom, which is pathetic. Not only do all pictures (in my case, anyway) get stamped with a low-rent watermark, but they’re shown through a flash-based interface, and scaled to 1.2x original size by a low-quality algorithm!

Needless to say, I took personal exception. So I wrote a script to download all the photos out of a PrintRoom album. It required a perl interpreter, the LWP::Simple module, and wget installed on your system. If you don’t know what this means, the script is not for you. If you have a compatible system and are stuck with printroom, then download the script.
