How to extract and download all images from a website using beautifulSoup?

Question

I am trying to extract and download all images from a url. I wrote a script

import urllib2
import re
from os.path import basename
from urlparse import urlsp

If you want only pictures then you can just download them without even scrapping the webpage. The all have the same URL:

http://filmygyan.in/wp-content/gallery/katrina-kaifs-top-10-cutest-pics-gallery/cute1.jpg
http://filmygyan.in/wp-content/gallery/katrina-kaifs-top-10-cutest-pics-gallery/cute2.jpg
...
http://filmygyan.in/wp-content/gallery/katrina-kaifs-top-10-cutest-pics-gallery/cute10.jpg

So simple code as that will give you all images:

import os
import urllib
import urllib2


baseUrl = "http://filmygyan.in/wp-content/gallery/katrina-kaifs-top-10-"\
      "cutest-pics-gallery/cute%s.jpg"

for i in range(1,11):
    url = baseUrl % i
    urllib.urlretrieve(url, os.path.basename(url))

With Beautifulsoup you will have to click or go to the next page to scrap the images. If you want ot scrap each page individually try to scrathem using there class which is shutterset_katrina-kaifs-top-10-cutest-pics-gallery
