    Hello all
    I have recently become involved in a drop shipping business and although the supplier has been very helpfull as far as supplying a complete Excel document for me to import, they will not give me the product images.
    As some of you will know, If you try to import an Excel file with URLs instead of the actual path to images, no products are imported.
    There are over 3000 products.
    Does anyone know a way around this?

    Kindest Regards

      Just bung them all into an images.html file created from below that you save on your desktop
      Code:
      <html>
      <head>
      <title>Load those Images</title>
      </head>
      <body>
      <h2>Here they are</h2>
      <img src="http://www.imagesite.com/images/image1.jpg"><br>
      <img src="http://www.imagesite.com/images/image2.jpg"><br>
      <img src="http://www.imagesite.com/images/image3.jpg"><br>
      That's the lot
      </body>
      </html>
      Then double-click that file and IE will load the entire page. Now do File / Save As and you'll get a folder containing all the images.

        Presuming you have the permission to do so you could also copy the whole site structure with images to your computer using WinHTTrack.

            Hi Norman,

            I tried doing as you suggested to Steve, as I am also involved in dropshipping. I have created an images.html file with the file paths as demonstrated in your example

            It has created the html file fine with all the images - I have copied it to the relevant site as an image file, but Actinic still will not let me import any of the products at all - just says image does not exist for each product

            Any ideas how I can get round this one, please?

            - the site is not live yet - still working on it

            Any ideas very welcome!

            Thanks

              Hi June

              just says image does not exist for each product
              Please check the location of where it says the image does not exist. It sounds like it the images are somewhere else on the PC, and Actinic cannot find it.

              Please check

              Kind Regards
