Script Summary: Free tool to download any of available FB albums - both small and large photos



Handy Photo Downloader is an application for downloading photos from any album available to your Facebook account.

Make sure you have installed Java plugin in your browser. When application runs, you need to approve permissions for applet by pressing 'Run'. This is neccessary to allow applet to download files.

Toolbar is shown when you access page with album - actually if URL address contains album related substring, so if URL was not typed directly, you will probably have to reload the page first to show toolbar.

Buttons:

Choose directory - let you choose directory where you would like to store photos
Download(small) - let you download all small images from album to selected directory
Download(large) - let you download all large images from album to selected directory
SaveDir - let you set currently chosen directory as the default download directory
O - let you open the window with options
i - let you open this window with instructions

Options Window

In Options Window you can set default base name of both small and large images by typing it in input and pressing 'Change' button. If you set blank string default file names will be used.

Note: Make sure all images in the album are loaded. If album is large or you have slow connection you may press 'Pause/Resume loading' that appears shortly when toolbar is loading. Pressing this button is necessary in the case when you need to press 'Show more' to view all photos.

Note: Firefox version of this software might be unstable and work only on some versions of FF and Greasemonkey correctly. If you experience problems, use Chrome or Opera version.
