How to find Chrome cache on Mac

export YOU=your_username
export PROFILE=Default

mkdir ~/chrome_images
cp /Users/$YOU/Library/Caches/Google/Chrome/$PROFILE/Cache/* ~/chrome_images/
for k in `/bin/ls`; do mv $k $k.jpg; done # rename all files to jpg

open ~/chrome_images

# Now browse the image folder and find the images you want

# More sophisticated renaming example:

if [[ `file $filename | grep JPEG` ]]; then mv $filename{,.jpg} ; fi
