The site QuickMeme uses an annoying transparency block to make it difficult to download the raw image. This python script will take the link to a quickmeme image page and download the raw image to the specified directory. If no directory has been specified they will download to the current folder.
Usage via command line--
Run using Python 2.7.2, is not compatible with Python3 due to library changes.
Simply download image(For now):
./memegrab.py
Set download directory(Creates setup.txt to store directory info for later use):
./memegrab.py -todir
Download a quickmeme image(Simple setup for inclusion of other sites):
./memegrab.py -qm
