Hello,

thanks for your quick replies. Unfortunately I am by no means a computer
expert, what's more English is my second language, and I am struggling to
understand what you are saying.

My urls only, as a file / table, are 117 kb large. Perhaps I should simply
break them up into four parts, instead of downloading a lump of 150 MB of
pictures at once.

Or, if I save them as a textfile, do you mean a csv file with comma separated
values? Only I can't use commas to separate the values, the urls contain dots,
commas, slashes, hyphens, pretty much every punction mark
.,/_=!~$(

e. g. <http://i.ebayimg.com/05/!B%29fvNE!Bmk~$%28KGrHqMOKisEwPBtPuqgB>....
or
<http://i20.ebayimg.com/08/i/001/29/a>....

So I really would't know what texttrenner to use in a csv file, perhaps a ยต
could work.

I just tried saving one of my picture url websites via Mozilla Firefox - File
- Save Website as 

And as a result I got a jpg picture saved in jpg format without any
background. I hope HTT will do the same.

Hm, and for us people ignorant of HTT that means?
The picture host (ebaying.com) contains my pictures and several million
pictures of other people, which I most certainly don't want to download, that
won't be a problem I hope?> use local structure=xx in web/xx and all images

OK, going back to the instruction pages of HTT and hope that will explain what
you are talking about :-)
