Mass Download Flickr Photos

leave a comment »

I was searching for a way to download original photos from flickr in a batch mode. I tried several programs like Flickr Backup and Flickr Downloadr, but neither of both suit me.

Instead, I discover a way that works perfectly for me. First, you need this:

- firefox

- greasemonkey extension installed

- DownThemAll! extensión installed

- Flickr – Link Original Image script for greasemonkey

- and of course, a flickr account

I spent months looking for the perfect backup utility for Flickr. None of the backup utilities worked well (either crashed on long title names or downloaded the sets partially) for a huge collection like mine.

Using Juan Pablo’s method, I was able to backup all 5,623 images (6.69gb) without a single error. All images were of original resolution.

So if you have a lot of photos to backup on your Flickr Pro account, forget about all the backup software. Just read the above mentioned article. You’ll be damn glad you did!
