Picture Patrol Officer X 1.5.1

Picture Patrol Officer X 1.5.1 provides you with a powerful usenet image downloader which allows you to search and download the thousands of pictures. Picture Patrol builds huge collections of free pictures overnight. Pictures of celebrities, airplanes, fractals, military equipment, cars, comics, anime characters, and much more can be collected using this application.

Major Features:

1. It uses a simple interface to replace what once was a time-consuming task with essentially some settings and a few mouse clicks.
   
2. Unlike ordinary newsreaders that require your constant intervention, Picture Patrol independently downloads articles from your favorite newsgroups, decodes pictures attached to them and saves these images into the directories you set, neatly grouped by date and newsgroup.

Enhancements:

• News servers with way over 100,000 newsgroups can now be used without seriously slowing down the program
• The time needed for decoding pictures is no longer included in the throughput calculations, resulting in a more reliable throughput graph
• On Mac OS X Tiger, the Finder display of the image folders is no longer messed up by a mysterious $$TestFile$$
• On Mac OS 9, double-clicking the downloaded pictures will open them in QuickTimes PictureViewer. On Mac OS X, the default application for JPEG or GIF images will now be used
• On Mac OS X, the application now has the .app extension to make sure the operating system will treat it as a program and not as a Script Editor document
• Minor enhancements were made to some status messages.

Requirements:

• 50 megabytes of available internal memory
• Lots of available hard disk drive space (to store the thousands of images you are going to collect)
• An Internet connection and access to a news server (you can connect through broadband, or modems using PPP).
