If you're one of the 200 million Facebook users — oh, and don't forget to sign up for a username and "vanity URL" after midnight on Saturday — you probably enjoy clicking through your friend's photos. Here's a trick to download entire albums to your PC in one fell swoop.
If you want to save your friend's and family's Facebook photos — perhaps to view them offline, email to someone or print them out — there is a way to do this easily, instead of right-clicking on each picture and saving them individually to your hard drive. This can be a real time-consuming pain.
If you aren't using it already, you first need it to use the Firefox web browser and a free Firefox add-on called Facebook Photo Album Downloader, or FacePAD for short.
Regardless of how many photos are in a friend's online photo album, simply right-mouse click on any photo and you’ll see a new option called "Download Album with FacePAD." Select this and all the photos will begin downloading to the default location you've set for downloads in Firefox.
You're welcome!
