Automatic website .gif image downloader!

Post by not telling »

Often there are many .gif images on a web page. It takes hell of a lot time to download them with right clicking the image and saving as!
It would be nice if you could make a tool to automate the process!

The download manager 'GetRight' (http://www.getright.com) does this. It comes with a 'browser' that lets you view all media and links on a page, you select what you want, and it downloads it all.

Its not free, but it is quite cheap.

How is Getright better? Well, it displays all the images which you can simply click to select, and then it downloads into a directory. Therefore, if you want all the images, you tell it to download all (two clicks) and click go (one more click). Otherwise, you'd have to right click -> Save Image As -> Enter filename -> Ok (3 clicks) per image (x 50 (for example)) = 150 clicks.

Also, while Getright is downloading, you can be busy browsing another site - something you can't do while you're busy right clicking, left clicking and everything else.

The Firefox extension I use is DownThemAll, free of course.

You can right-click on a page and save all the images/linked images/media files etc.
