FlickrDown – Bulk Image Downloading Utility for Flickr

We upload our photos to Flickr without worrying much about bandwidth or reliability. Imaging you want move all your photos to some other image hosting site or just what a backup of your photos, you can’t download them one by one, its quite time consuming. There are bulk uploading utilities such as Uploadr, but download bulk image downloading is a problem. Maybe the don’t want to waste their bandwidth for downloading images to your machine, so they don’t provide any such utility.

Flickrdown a free application which lets you fetch all your photos (including private photos) with a single shot. You can either select individual photos or select the whole photo set for downloading. An authorization is required before the first download, so that you can download your private photos.

You can also use this utility search photos by tags, groups, email address or usernames and download, so you can download anybody’s public photos quite easily. This utility doesn’t have a fancy user interface, but does the job nicely. All credits must go to Greggman who created this cool little Flickr toy.

    Great Utility. gregmann should be made a Saint for sharing this with those of us who are not patient enough to sit down and write the code to download photos in bulk. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

    As this program runs off your computer, you'd have to download each one. You'd need to run this off the FTP computer itself to be able to do this. If you're using a FTP service, you probably wont have enough access to be able to do that.
  • Any chance to support download from Flickr to a FTP server (better: SSH/SFTP) instead of my hard drive?

    Would make things easier and reduce bandwidth a lot!
    Currently I can only use Dial-up and it would cost me an arm and a leg to download my pictures from Flickr and upload them to my FTP server. ;-)

    Thanks,

    Life is what you make it! ;-)
