a way to extract images from XML file?

[The Grinch]

I am trying to import a skin to my ipb forums, but the servers here do not allow enough memory to be used and i keep getting the "memory exhausted" error.

Since IPB extracts and imports all the skin and images file XML format, its hard to extract the images manually to upload via ftp. But im sure that there has to be a way to do this.

Does anyone know or have any ideas on how to extract anything from the XML files?

thanks.

XML data is fairly easy to read for human-beings. If you can find out where in the XML structure the images are, it should be fairly easy to write a script that extracts this image data and dumps it into the corresponding files.

I am not sure whether such a tool already exists for IPB.

Why not just download the IPB skin and upload it manually instead of using the wizard? Seems like a much simpler (and faster) approach, unless you plan on doing this often, in which case the time making the script would be well spent.
