How to Download Imgur Albums, Images and Videos
Imgur itself saves one post at a time, as a ZIP archive from the post's menu. For a list of posts, a whole profile or its favorites, 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.
- 1Imgurimgur.com/user/Imgur
Copy an Imgur Address
In your browser, open the post on Imgur and copy its address from the address bar, or copy its link with the post's share button. For several posts, copy each one's address; for everything an account has shared, copy the address of its profile.

Name and folder
Imgur
Create projectGet the Images, Videos and GIFs
Pick a destination and click Create project. No sign-in is asked for: images come at the full size Imgur stores, videos and GIFs as the MP4 files Imgur plays, each post in its own folder. A file's name carries the post's author, date and title. Run it again later, and only posts added since the last run come down.
Imgur Image Downloader: Images at Full Size
A post on Imgur shows each image as a reduced WebP copy that fits the page. NeoDownloader saves the file Imgur keeps, at its full size and in its own format, such as JPEG or PNG.
Nothing is enlarged or re-compressed. Each file is named with the author, the date and the title of its post, and the images of one post keep its order: a number after the post's id.
An image's own address, i.imgur.com/ and its id, downloads just that file, with the Direct links plugin.
Imgur Video Downloader: Videos and GIFs as MP4
Imgur plays videos and animated GIFs alike as MP4 videos. NeoDownloader saves the MP4 file Imgur plays: a video with its sound, and a GIF as the video Imgur made of it - the same picture in a far smaller file.
Paste the post's address into “New project”, as for images: NeoDownloader selects its Gallery Downloader plugin, and the videos and GIFs come down beside the images of the post.
To keep a GIF as a .gif file, paste its own address - i.imgur.com/, its id and .gif - and NeoDownloader saves the GIF itself, with the Direct links plugin.
Imgur Gallery Downloader: Every Post of a Profile
Paste the address of a profile, and NeoDownloader goes through every post the account has shared, newest first. Each post goes into a folder of its own, named with its id and title, and the project is named after the account.
For the posts an account has added to its favorites, paste the address of its profile with /favorites at the end. Run the project again later, and NeoDownloader downloads only the posts added since.
A whole profile needs no sign-in. On the free version a large profile stops at its limit on files per project; Premium lifts it.
Download Imgur Albums, Profiles and Favorites by Their Addresses
- A post with its images and videos - imgur.com/a/… or imgur.com/gallery/…, from the address bar or the share button, or typed without https://
- One image or GIF - imgur.com/ and its id
- A whole profile - imgur.com/user/ and the account's name, and its favorites with /favorites at the end
- A tag or a search - imgur.com/t/… or imgur.com/search?q=…
- A file of its own - i.imgur.com/…, saved as it is
- A few posts together - one address per line, gathered in one project
Imgur Downloader Features
Albums, images, videos and GIFs, one post or a whole profile in one run
A Whole Profile in One Run
Paste a profile's address, and NeoDownloader takes every post the account has shared, each into a folder of its own, without a sign-in.
Names You Can Read
Instead of Imgur's codes, each file is named with the author, the date, the title of its post and the post's id: ImgurAds [2025-04-18] Earth Day 2025 - Our Power, Our Planet OrZB7nm 1.png.
Every File Knows Its Post
The properties of each file name the post it came from, under “Found on”; to reopen that post on Imgur, use “Open on the site”.
Only What Is New
Later, run the project once more: it fetches just the posts shared since the previous run.
Imgur Downloader FAQ
Is there a free Imgur downloader?
Yes. Getting NeoDownloader costs nothing, and it takes Imgur albums, images, videos and GIFs from one post, a handful of posts or a profile. The free version has no time limit; Premium lifts its limits on the number of files per project.
How do I download an Imgur album?
Copy the album's address from your browser's address bar, or its link from the post's share button. Click “New project” in NeoDownloader, paste it and click “Next”: NeoDownloader selects its Gallery Downloader plugin. Click “Create project”, and every image and video of the album comes down into a folder of its own, without a sign-in.
Can Imgur itself download a whole album?
One post at a time: the post's menu on Imgur saves it as a ZIP archive, and an image's menu saves that image. NeoDownloader takes a list of posts or a whole profile in one go, with the files unpacked and each named after its post.
How do I download a video from Imgur?
Paste the post's address into “New project”: NeoDownloader selects its Gallery Downloader plugin and saves each video as the MP4 file Imgur plays, with its sound. A video's own address, i.imgur.com/ with .mp4 at the end, downloads too.
How do I save a GIF from Imgur?
Paste the post's address into “New project”, as for a video: an animated GIF is saved as the MP4 video Imgur plays in its place. To keep the .gif file itself, paste its own address - i.imgur.com/, its id and .gif - and NeoDownloader saves the GIF as it is.
Can I save Imgur GIFs and videos as MP4?
Yes, and nothing needs converting: Imgur plays its videos and GIFs as MP4 files, and NeoDownloader saves those files as they are.
Can I download all images from an Imgur profile?
Yes. Paste the profile's address - imgur.com/user/ and the account's name - into “New project”. NeoDownloader takes every post the account has shared, each in a folder of its own, without a sign-in. Run the project again later to fetch only the new posts.
How do I back up my Imgur posts?
Paste the address of your profile: the posts it shows to anyone come down in one project, each in a folder of its own, with the images at their full size. Albums that are not on your profile download by their own addresses, pasted one per line. Run the project again later to add only the new posts.
Do I need an Imgur account?
No. Posts, lists of posts, whole profiles and their favorites download without a sign-in.
What quality are Imgur images and videos downloaded in?
Images at the full size Imgur keeps, larger than the copies a post shows; videos and GIFs as the MP4 files Imgur plays. Nothing is enlarged or re-compressed.
Is there an Imgur downloader online or as an extension?
You install NeoDownloader and it works on your own computer, not inside a web page or an add-on. From there it can go through a list of posts or a whole profile in one pass, each file going from Imgur directly into your folder.
