Great firefox extension for quickly saving images

    If you're anything like me, you probably go hunting for reference images for mapping/modelling/texturing etc, open scores of images and then find it's a total pain in the arse to manually save each image. However, help is at hand. I found this Bazzacuda firefox extension (click) which does the business for you All you do is open the images you want to save in tabs, then, once they're loaded, use the extension's functionality to save all images. It can even discern between pages with various image styles (like other images on the page or dynamic web pages like .asp with embedded images).

    Anyway it's so immensely useful when resource gathering that I thought I'd post it here.

    You realize that, as in Safari, you can simply click and drag any picture of the webpage you browse, and save it on your desktop instead?

    though i like mac and enjoy working with it, but the safari browser is crappy compared to firefox. maybe safari is simple enough for my taste, but the rendering and support of W3C standards isnt that good.

    i didnt know of this drag and drop feature. nice to know if i use the safari sometimes

    Yeah, and most badass : you can drag an image from a webpage directly in an editor to modify it or in a ftp client to rehost it somewhere else. Just drag it to the taskbar and keed dragin until the program pops up.

    That method is a lot slower than using this extension unless you're only saving a couple of images. If you're saving scores of images, this is the best way I've found to manage it.

    He means you can do it in Firefox just like you can in Safari, hessi. I'm not sure why Furyo felt obligated to mention Safari at all as I initially misread it in the same way, but oh well.
