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.
