Hi Boss,
12k is not a large number. I've build my own PHP library that has scraped Australian, US, Indian, Asian hotel, UK business sites recently.
Would you like your images to be downloaded or only in URLs? If downloaded, how would you like to name and organize them (folder, zipped)? Would you like your data to be in CSV, Excel, or simple tab-separated text format?
You can message me the URL and I can send you a set of sample results before you decide to hire me. I have 10 years of experience in Web programming and data mining even though I appear to be new here.
Regards,
Jason, Penang, Malaysia
