FireChan, the 4-chan image trawler FireFox plugin.
How to use:
- Download the latest version (if it won’t install, Right Click->Save Link As and then drag the file onto FireFox)
- Once the plugin is installed and FireFox is restarted, right-click on any of the toolbars at the top of the browser and select Customise.
- In the Customise Toolbar dialog box, you will find an icon for FireChan; simply drag this onto any of your toolbars to begin using.
- Clicking on the FireChan button will load the trawler page - you can load as many pages as you want.
- Select the board you wish to trawl, and click the Search button.
- Go make some tea whilst your images download.
Don’t worry if a few of the text boxes look like Martian text, it is there for the more advanced use to change should they wish.
Please note that this does increase the load on the 4-chan servers and I would ask that you only perform these trawls no more than once per day at non-peak times. Leech, but leech responsibly.
