I have created a "WWW Spider" which creates a "PHOTO ALBUM" of pictures.

That is, say you know of a URL where there are many icons and images
stored in one directory.  You can use this utility to create a photo
album of the icons/pictures that are there.

The captions of these icons will be clickable, so that one can copy the
icons to your local machine.

Obviously, there are severe copyright issues that could arise from
this!

It is also good for putting a load on a server :-(.

I would like to hear the opinions of others as to the ethics and
legalities of such software.
