Facebook Photo Album Downloader

If you are a Facebook regular with a solid amount of friends and activities you might have thought about downloading some of the contents, especially pictures but other multimedia content would do as well, from Facebook to the local computer. Think of photo albums that have been uploaded by friends, family or colleagues. It is possible to manually download individual photos from Facebook but it would surely be a time saver to download them all at once.

Facebook Photo Album Downloader is a Firefox extension that can download an entire Facebook photo album in one go. The firefox extension is actually pretty easy to use. All the user has to do is to right-click the View Album link on Facebook and select Download Album With FacePAD. A Javascript popup will appear telling the user that the download will initialize. The photos that are in the Facebook album will be downloaded in the default Firefox download directory.

If the selected photo album contains more than one page of photos multiple JavaScript popups will appear telling the user that the photos will be downloaded. The default value is 20 photos per page.
