Facebook Album Downloader is good…I’ve used this app before – fbdownloader which works fine too…
Checkout this Facebook application https://apps.facebook.com/login/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fapps.facebook.com%2Fsaveimages%2F
this app lets you download photos your tagged in with comments and tags!
Sweet!
But FacePad has been taken down by facebook now.
FacePad was the easiest.
FacePAD is no longer available…
If you have a Mac you can use FaceTop – Facebook photo downloader.
It’s pretty sweet.
Hey men when i search for the Facepad no result found ~
Like Jane said this is so simple. Thank you and from me!
this firefox addon is better:
I too noticed that when I joined Facebook recently. The other thing that I noticed is getting updates of people whom you send friend request and they don’t add you.
I am not sure if its due to lack of action on the friendship request or otherwise. When I visit the profile page, it still shows “Awaiting Confirmation”. I am not sure what should one make out of it.
This is a really useful list. I never even knew you get whole albums this way. A friend of mine uploaded a bunch of pictures she took of a litter of puppies I was getting ready to sell and I painfully dragged each one off and it took forever.
Thanks to this post I can say: NEVER AGAIN! :)
LoL!!! Those were amazing tools/addons…I always use to download every individual photo from FB…I’m sure this would help me to save all the photo in single go..will keep you posted on how it worked..Thanks.. :)
