   Help topic 1: Saving multiple pictures and entire sets
   
  To save multiple pictures navigate to a set (e.g. once in a picture click browse below the previous/next icons).

To download some of the pictrures shown, click on those pictures to select them and press "Save Selected"

To save all pages for the current set click the small "V" button and then "Save All Pages".

 


Known issue when saving an entire set.

Some sets do not "reveal" their total number of pages.

For example the set shown here has about 400 pages but only shows some of the nearest pages to the current page.



On the other hand this set directly shows that it consists of 33 pages.



Flickr Downloader needs this information to enqueue all pages. To work around this issue for now, if you come across such a case you will need to navigate to the last page of the set manually and then press "Save all pages"
