How to download pictures from snapfish?

Easy way to download an entire album from sites like Kodakgallery.com or snapfish?

  • Is there an easy way to download an entire album from sites like Kodakgallery.com or snapfish? Right now, the only way I know to do it is to manually load each individual image, right click, save as..., etc. For two pictures, that's okay. For hundreds, that's no longer a sound option. Is there a way to automatically download all of them at once? The site I'm most interested in right now is kodakgallery, since some friends are sharing pictures of a trip on that site, but if there's a solution that applies to snapfish, flickr, etc., that's an added bonus.

  • Answer:

    For flickr there's http://greggman.com/pages/flickrdown.htm. You could also easily call wget/curl/perl into service here, but that takes a little more know-how.

There's a Mozilla plugin that'll download all the files of a given type on a page. I'm not at work so I can't check on the name, but it's something like DownloadThemAll - yeah, here we go: http://www.downthemall.net/

So there really isn't a good answer out there. That's what I thought, but was hoping I was wrong. Thanks. If I ever need this for flickr, though, I know where to go. (Leon, I looked at downthemall already, but the pages are organized so you can only see a page of all the thumbnail images, or else pages showing one large image at a time. So downthemall only gives me a bunch of thumbnails.)

I did this once using http://www.snapfiles.com/get/mwsnap.html...you still have to do them all individually, but there's a "Repeat last capture" feature and an auto-name feature that makes it more like: -click to next picture -Ctrl-Shift-L -repeat you end up with a folder of sequentially named pictures

Thanks jacobsee! Not my ideal option, but good enough that I might actually consider trying to download the photos. I'll check it out.

It still seems like there's no ideal solution out there. Unfortunately visiting each photo at Snapfish and downloading will only give you a screen resolution copy of each image - not something you'd ever want to edit/print from in the future. Snapfish doesn't have an API for downloading photos that I've been able to find, but is there any other way to do this?
