Amazon Images
Categories: [ IT ]
In Abusing Amazon images you learn how to abuse Amazon images, creating images of an Amazon product with whatever tag overlaid on it (such as a “99% off” bullet).
But the interesting part is that you can get images in any format with the
following syntax: http://ecw.images-amazon.com/images/P/ASIN.01.size_info.jpg .
Useful values for size info are:
- THUMBZZZ for thumbnail
- TZZZZZZZ for medium-size
- nothing for default size
- L, LZ or LZZ for large
- AAxx, xx is the size of the largest dimension
- SXxx, xx is the width
- XYxx, xx is the height
- SSxx, xx is the size of width and height (image is padded with white)
Plenty of other features are available, I now use SSxx for the blog so that I can add size/height attributes to the IMG elements in the HTML and WAP 2.0 versions.
