Andrew McKee (ID: 000000b719b807d3) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/09/2023 Perfect. Does exactly what it says on the tin.

icon

Dave S. (ID: 00000064d1f6e656) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 03/15/2023 Pretty good but really needs an update to remember what folder you're in when you're saving images. Plugin will take you to your downloads folders each time you save an image. Very tedious having to navigate to my pictures subfolders over & over again.

icon

Jamie Lee (ID: 0000001fc64ec318) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 06/10/2022 Does what it says effortlessly, but conflicts with the browser remembering the last folder you downloaded to, always sending you back to whatever folder you have set for downloads by default. This severely hampers workflow when saving multiple images at once.

Justin Golmon (ID: 00000056e87fb4f9) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/05/2022 You are doing God's work by making this. Is there a way to do the same with .webp?
