Hi there. Thank you writing for this script. I have problem with -n argument. Script does not download specified number of images by -n argument.
For example following script download only 45 images rather than 999 images.

$ googliser -n 999 --phrase "dog"
googliser.sh v:200212 PID:9608

Google: 10 web pages OK
links: 76

Try your search again with additional options:
- disable SafeSearch: '--safesearch-off'

download: 45/76 images OK and 31 failed links list exhausted!

Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

Sorry, due to major changes recently made by Google, this scraper isn't working correctly. It can only retrieve a single "page" of results at present.

Google switched to using an "endless" results page and I don't have the free-time at the moment to work out how to trigger it. 😞

At some point, I'll return to work on this, but for now, googliser has only limited functionality.

Problem still not solved? Is the project abandoned?
