Pictures
-
Hello!
I experienced a hard drive crash and i’d like to take pictures from my WordPress account and save them back on my computer. Is there any way to do this?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no automated way to download all the images from your media library. You will have to download them individually.

Do you have anywhere that you could set up a self-hosted WordPress site? If so, the much faster way would be to set up a self-hosted site, export your WordPress.com site (including images), import it into the self-hosted site, then install this plugin and download:

You wouldn’t even have to have a webhost. If you know how (or were interested in searching/posting on http://wordpress.org/support/ ti find out) you could set up a locally hosted WordPress site and do it that way.

It sounds like a pain, but it will be MUCH faster than downloading the images one by one from your .com media library.

-
- Log into your WordPress.com Dashboard.
- Go do your Media Library
- Click on the “list” icon to show the images as a list rather than a grid of thumbnails (screenshot: http://snag.gy/drous.jpg)
- Roll your mouse over an image and then click the “view” link when it appears.
- Click on the image on the next page.
- When you see a page with JUST the image on it, right click and choose “save image as”
- Go back to the Media Library and do it all again for the next image.
