The way I'm understanding this module, it takes the source item url from the feed and goes out to scrape an image from it. Is that correct?

My issue is I dont want it to scrape the url..I want it simply import an image from a url defined in the feed (because the scraped url will have a small imagecached version, and I want the original). I've got a json data feed and one of the fields in it is an image url (http://example.com/my_image.jpg) and I simply want to import this image to an imagefield.

Is this possible with this module? If not, any suggestions? Seems like a common and simple use case.

Oops forget it. Feeds core does this properly, but it was broken. Fixed with this patch. #1612246: Invalid enclosure on image import due to code error
