Download ALL photos at once

Hi Karl, Nick!
Wanted to ask how possible that is: to be able to download all photos at once. I have seen such script, which even packs files and then gives you option to download whole package. This is sometimes useful for many photos, if that is not possible or hard to implement, maybe to be able to get a list of links with all photos /original size/ to be able to copy and paste that into a download manager?
Thanks!
G

Hmm there is a list of all files if you open ?a=sitemap, https://www.photo.gallery/demo/x2/?a=sitemap
but it's not the same of course. We're thinking about creating sitemap.xml for google and could make a list of all files with direct links as well.

But I would like to know if it's really that useful? Of course it's cool that you can download all images from somebody's else's gallery. Just exactly what most owners don't want. But why you can't use ftp to download your own images?

say you send photos from your kid's Bday to your mom who knows none about ftp clients, and she wants to print them, etc...
and there are 300 photos and downloading one by one can be PITA, so "download all" button and everything is set. For all those years this is the first time I realised that this could be useful, though in rare cases (like you said most people don't want ANY photos to be downloaded)
Best, G

Well as we are looking into a 'normal' user experience and a 'vip' user experience (which is controlled from outside Imagevue) I would wonder if such an addition could be made :)

But it all depends on the content of the gallery like Nick described.

I'm all for this idea... this is good for sharing your photos to someone else without having to do it one by one. AND/OR maybe with a check marking photos that they would like to download then somewhere at the bottom of the page there is a download buttons like [Download ALL] [Download Selected].

Just a thought...
