I'm quite new around. I was looking for a way to download the full resolution images in Wikimedia, from Google art project. Link: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Gigapixel_images_from_the_Google_Art_Project

My first thought was downloading the dumps, but how can I know which dump contains the image I am searching? I have little experience handling dumps/coding. I'm really interested in learning how to automatize the process. Can someone help me out?

Thanks!

The dumps include text only and the media tarballs are not sorted by categories.

Just use catdown, it even ships wget for you if you're unlucky and you're using that user-unfriendly system called Windows. You could try its replacement (not currently working for me).

You can now use Imker, a Java cross-platform tool.
