ImagePond Downloader: An Album Across All Its Pages
ImagePond shows an album 24 thumbnails at a time over numbered pages, and has no button to save it. NeoDownloader takes every item of the album from all of its pages at once, at full size, or a single picture from its own page.
How to Download an ImagePond Album
An ImagePond album can be sorted by newest, most viewed or largest, but not downloaded. Three steps:
One-time setup: download NeoDownloader and install it. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. The steps below are what you repeat each time.
- 1ImagePondimagepond.net/a/some-album
Copy the Album's Link
An album's address is imagepond.net/a/ and its code, as the address bar shows it. A single picture's page, imagepond.net/image/ or imagepond.net/i/ and a code, works too.

Settle the folder and press Create project. Page after page of the album is read, and each item arrives at full size rather than as its 300-pixel thumbnail.
ImagePond Limits Fast Visitors
ImagePond answers too many requests in a short time with “Too Many Requests”. One album at a time goes through - an album of 86 came down whole in a single run - but several ImagePond projects started together can run into the limit.
If some items fail, wait a little and run the project again: what is already on your disk stays, and the rest comes down.
ImagePond Links NeoDownloader Accepts
- An album - imagepond.net/a/ and its code
- One picture - imagepond.net/image/ or imagepond.net/i/ followed by its code
ImagePond Downloads Beyond One Link at a Time
Services that save a single link stop at that link. NeoDownloader starts from an address, goes through all it leads to, files everything beside the page it came from, and on a later run skips what it already has.
ImagePond Downloader FAQ
Can I save an ImagePond album with all its pages?
Paste the album's link, imagepond.net/a/ and its code, into “New project”. Every page of the album is gone through and each item saved at full size.
Why does ImagePond say “Too Many Requests”?
It slows down whoever asks for a lot in a short time. Give it a few minutes and run the project again; files already downloaded are kept.
Can I download everything a member uploaded?
A member's page on ImagePond asks for a sign-in before it shows anything. NeoDownloader starts from what visitors can open: albums and single pictures.
Are the pictures full size?
Yes: the file behind each item, not the 300-pixel thumbnail of the album's grid.
Is NeoDownloader free to use with ImagePond?
Yes, with no trial period to run out. The free version has no time limit; Premium lifts its limits on the number of files per project.
