Hi @jamiefinney
Yes, it is pretty easy - once TweetSearcher returns the JSON in _tweet_search_result attribute, you can create a new attibute (for example, _image_url) with JSONExtractor with the following syntax:
json["entities"]["media"][*]["media_url_https"]
After this transformer, use ImageFetcher with _image_url, it will return the image.
If you also would like to get aTwitter profile image, use json["user"]["profile_image_url_https"].
I used this technique for our FMECoin contest - see the article here:
