Yes. For paid accounts ipernity offers functionality to generate a so-called metalink file that contains download links to all photos of one of your albums. Then you can download all of these photos at once with third party download software that is able to process metalink files. One example for such third party software that is free is uGet.

Sounds complicated? Don't worry. The following step-by-step instructions will give precise instructions on what to do on a Windows computer in order to install uGet and then download all photos within an album with the help of a metalink file created by ipernity.

In order to install uGet you need the compression/decompression software 7-zip that is free, too. The first to steps of the following instructions describe how to install 7-zip and uGet. Once you have installed these two programs and configured uGet according to step 3 you can proceed with step 4 whenever you want to download a complete album.

Step 1: Download and install the compression/decompression software 7-zip


a) This is required because the zip extractor provided with Windows only works on .zip files not .7z type files. Go to www.7-zip.org. Depending on your windows version click the download link for the 32-bit or the 64-bit version. An executable file for the installation of 7-zip is now downloaded to your default download folder.

b) Start this executable file (either directly form your browser after download as indicated by the red oval in the lower left corner above or by a double click on the file in your download folder) and follow the the instruction for installation.

Then choose "7-Zip" from the menu and "Extract files..." from the sub menu. If this option is missing, you can choose "Open archive" and then find the Extract option in the toolbar.

Step 3: Configure uget to be able to process metalink files


a) Open the uGet folder on you hard drive that you noted in step 2e) that has the uget files. Open the sub-folder bin, scroll down and then double click on uget.exe in order to start uGet. (If you hide file extensions, see the application with green icon.)

Using this method as a general download tool

Depending on the size of your gallery, you might create a few albums. You can use the advanced search (by date), to manage the photos into separate albums without duplicates. When adding photos to an album, you can use click and shift+click to select many photos at once from the bottom film strip selector.
