1. Get HTTrack. google it. its free
2. Enter your website's url and set the options depending on how much you want to download. please enter only 2 as the limit if the website is really huge. and start it
3. Browse mirrored site to see what you have downloaded. make sure you turn your browser offline.press CTRL + F5 to hard refresh the site just to make sure all you are seeing is not cached by the browser.
4. you will notice the background images are missing.
5. open the folder where the site is downloaded to. look for the css files. look at their links to background images. like so
background:url(http://mysite.com/images/bg-links.gif)
most of them will look like that. thats why they are not loading in your offline browser.

6. Next. install Internet download manager.(IDM)
7. in the options of IDM, check automatically download urls placed in clipboard.
8. in the css file, select all, and copy, IDM appears with a list of all the images urls that it detected in the content you copied.
9. select all, configure it to download in the images folder of the website. and start downloading.
10. back to the css, where ever you find
background:url(http://mysite.com/images/bg-links.gif)
remove the
http://mysite.com
so you have
background:url(images/bg-links.gif)

that way your urls are relative to the site.

11. and now the hardest part. refresh and pray it all worked. thats how i copied some great looking website i saw and sold it to some1 at 700USD. kekekekkee
