I love a pretty face, and this one sets my heart singing. (Click to enlarge) Any ideas? With thanks, -- J@mes

A few from Boston Proper. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

More Together stuff, same catalog. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

Hmm. It might be time for me to get an avatar! (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

I found some more images from Together AW2010. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

Here's the black guy, so as to speed if possible his apotheosis. (Click to enlarge) I'm on ADSL at the moment, and will post the other stuff later when it is quicker to upload. Best wishes, -- J@mes

This page contains the vital image. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

Together AW2010, in case Sanja missed it at the time (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

This one is from Mona. (Click to enlarge) What about an Apart retrospective? Apex is tempting me to do it. -- J@mes

Wow that was tough! Luckily I was able to find the C program I used last time I ripped one of these catalogues. (Click to enlarge) Let me know if anything vital is missing. -- J@mes xoxo

It is a shell command to be entered at the linux command prompt.

1. Went to http://www.victoriassecret.com/clothing/pants?pageAt=all 2. Saved page to desktop 3. Typed $ ls ~/Desktop/pants_files \ | sed -n '/^V.*jpg/s@^@http://media.victoriassecret.com/product/prodzoom/@p' \ | wget `cat` 4. Downloaded 130 MQ pictures. I won't call them HQ, because they are < 1MPix each. There! Not so very difficult. I would post them, but they are all boring, like the rest of the stuff on VS. Here's a clue: if they have to tell you the clothes are sexy, they probably aren't. -- J@mes

Last part. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

More from the same place. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

Together catalog at kaleidoscope.co.uk: sorry for any duplicates! (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

I'll take that as some kind of request. No doubt better images will come later when the online catalogue is updated. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

You are so clever! I stopped looking when I found one, difficult way of doing it, but you have found the easy way. -- J@mes

Not my cup of tea, but happy to help. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

From J D Williams. Not so HQ, I'm afraid. (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

If you think there are people lurking here who have a paid account at Newscom, or another site that makes its money offering images for sale, then please go ahead. You are likely to have more success if you ask for zooms of isolated pictures (or maybe a whole catalogue) from an online clothing retailer, where access to the pictures is less likely to require an account, and where the copyright will be guarded less jealously. If the techniques discussed in the HQ images thread don't work, or are too hard to use, then some of us are willing to help out when we can. The main idea in creating this thread is to avoid cluttering up the other one with lots of random pictures, because it is so useful as a reference on techniques. I think it would be nice if requests posted here contained the names of the models that appear in the requested pictures. Some of us are good at model IDs, others are good at the technical stuff, and it's good to combine our strengths. Speaking for myself, even if I ought to know a name, I often find I can't get beyond a vague feeling that "I've seen her somewhere before". Either requester or provider should post the images in the appropriate model thread afterwards. -- J@mes

To answer your question, it's Scene7, but the maximum image size is small and the images are large, so you really need my tiling machine to get decent images. The URL scheme seems to change from one catalog to the next, so I won't trouble to describe the latest one here. -- J

Happy to help! (Click to enlarge) -- J@mes

I'm making this new thread for image requests so as to avoid cluttering up the thread about how to download HQ images.
