Lately, I haven&#8217;t been using the site so much. I think Yahoo! has been missing the boat by not making any big improvements to their services and forgetting mobile altogether (their current Flickr app is a sorry excuse for social software). The biggest letdown however, is the lack of good tools for downloading en managing your images.<\/p>\n<p>When my Pro account ends, I have no access to my fullsize images, and I want a complete download of al my content, so I can host them elsewhere. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.antagonist.nl\">Antagonist <\/a>now has unlimited storage and bandwidth for approximately 7\u20ac a month, which is a bargain.<\/p>\n<p>It took me some time to figure out a decent way to get all the images. One of my biggest requirements was, that the downloaded files had a filename equal to the title on the site (e.g. &#8220;London Eye&#8221;), and not the Flickr filename, which is not really human readable . the app promoted by Flickr itself is Downloadr, which only works in Windows, or Bulkr, which is quite good but the full version costs a hefty $30 a year.<\/p>\n<h2>How to download all images from your Flickr account<\/h2>\n<p>Here are the step for my free and successful download of all images and videos in full resolution:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>go to Flickr.com, login and in the Menu, go to&#8221;You&#8221;&#8211;&gt;&#8221;Organize&#8221;.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psinke.nl\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/flickr-menu.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-211\" title=\"Flickr menu - Organize\" alt=\"flickr-menu\" src=\"http:\/\/www.psinke.nl\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/flickr-menu-150x150.png\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Create a new set, and add all of your images (or all the images you prefer to download)<\/li>\n<li>go to <a title=\"Flick and Share\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickandshare.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Flickandshare.com<\/a>, and authorize the website to access your content. You can revoke that later if you want.<\/li>\n<li>Go through the wizard (all straightforward) and select the set you want to download.<\/li>\n<li>A link with all the URL&#8217;s to your images is provided. Including the original image title in the link. Copy this link or note it down.<\/li>\n<li>For the next step you&#8217;ll need Firefox. <a title=\"Download Firefox for Desktop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/fx\/#desktop\" target=\"_blank\">Download it here<\/a> if you don&#8217;t already have it.<\/li>\n<li>After installation, go to Addons in the menu (Crtl+Shift+A in Windows), and search for the plugin &#8220;<a title=\"Downthemall bulk downloader\" href=\"http:\/\/downthemall.net\" target=\"_blank\">DownthemAll<\/a>&#8220;<\/li>\n<li>Install it and restart Firefox.<\/li>\n<li>Go to the link provided in step 5.<\/li>\n<li>Start the plugin from the menu:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.psinke.nl\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/downthemall-menu.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-212\" alt=\"downthemall-menu\" src=\"http:\/\/www.psinke.nl\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/downthemall-menu-150x150.png\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>A dialog appears.
