Downloading images?

[YarrOfDoom]

I'm trying to create a script to download a series of images for me, problem is that I have no idea on how to actually get them from the internet to my computer. I've been thinking this:

import urllib2
request = urllib2.Request(imageurl)
try: response = urllib2.urlopen(request)
except URLError, err:# code responsible for going on with the next seriesc_image = response.read()

Would this work and how could I get c_image as a file on my computer?

After scrambling together information about this from all over the internet (but mostly the python docs) I found out how to do it.

import urllib2
request = urllib2.Request(image url)
try: response = urllib2.urlopen(request)
except URLError, err:
    pass #here will come code that is irrelevant to my problem
c_image = response.read()
file = open(desired filename and location, "wb")
file.write(c_image)
file.close()

Still thanks to anyone who was trying to help, but wasn't fast enough.
For anyone trying to learn something from this: I'm using writing mode "wb" to write the file in binary mode, as images aren't ASCII files, and can't be written in the normal writing mode.
