Pulls random images from https://prnt.sc

Project description

prntscraper

  • prntscraper will allow you to scrape images from the prnt.sc website as they have predictable subheadings we can freely attempt to get random images or images in a sequential order from a specified amount to a max limit and download them into a folder. This process is also known as Fuskering This is a security issue from their end as It's highly common people store sensitive information that could easily be stolen if these images are found by the wrong people.

This module is no longer being worked on.
