how to download an image

[Scott Rossi]

Remove the first "binfile" usage, so your code reads like this:

put URL tNewImageLink into URL ("binfile:" & tNewFolder & "/" &
tNewImageName)


I used the following to test download to the desktop and it works as
expected:

put 
"http://s3.amazonaws.com/appforest_uf/f1496548544475x140387106221169240/gri
lled_cheese_on_plate.jpg" into theURL
put url theURL into url ("binfile:" & specialFolderPath("desktop") &
"/DLimage.jpg")
