Easiest way to download images from picasa website [Other user accounts]

Hi,

 

Many times, our friends will upload the pics to picasa and send us the links.

 

But, how can we download all of them to our desktop?

Picasa doesn’t provide any such options. And we cannot waste all our time right click on each image and downloading.

 

We can use DownThemAll but with a slight twist.

If you directly use it to download all images, you will only download the thumbnail size images.

To download the actual full size images, open the RSS and use the tool from there.

 

1. Install the DownThemAll extension
2. Go to the picasa album url.
3. Click on the “RSS” on the right side bar and you’ll get album’s feed.
4. Right-click on the page, select DownThemAll/DownThemAll in the contextual menu, expand the Filters section and check "Images". Don't forget to enter the folder where you want to save the photos.

 

Cheers,
Santhosh
