Download all favorites as zip - doesn't contain nearly all of them

Hey there,

the possibility to download a zip containing all favorites was one of the major reasons for me to become a sponsor. But the zip I get contains 73 pics in contrast to the nearly 300 I have in my favorites. I tried it a couple of times, it's the same zip every time. Does it exclude special pics? Hope you can help me and I hope this is the right forum for it.

Thanks,

Barabbas

seriously, I noticed that too, but if you are using firefox you can "drag" them out of your browser. it works as fast as the download and it is funner. you get to see them all again.

click on the image, then drag it to a blank spot on your desktop, then hit next image, repeat. when you are done group them into a folder, it takes as long as the downloading of the zip.

I've had lots of problems with "download all attachments" from the forum. Some pics are corrupted, some works fine.

I thought the problem with the forum zips was fixed.

no problem swiss,


Drag mean click on the image and hold your finger on the mouse button then move it to where you want it. it is easier than "rightmouseclick save as" and it is faster.

Really, that info has slipped from my eyes totally. Good to know

doing that with more than 300 pictures (click for fullscreen not included) is a lotta work. the last time i tried the zip-function worked perfectly. that may be a workaround but it doesn't solve the problem, does it?

I have had some problems with this when I am using the Opera browser. Whenever I click on "download all attachments" in the forum it tries to download an .avi file. I have then done the same thing in the same topic using Mozilla and it works fine. Just thought I'd let you guys know. Thanks

I think it's (again) due to serverloads as it was last time before it was fixed

That particular feature causes some stress on the servers, and Diz implemented a fail-safe which breaks the operation if it takes too long or hangs. This is just to ensure that the site keeps on going even under a lot of stress.

A good workaround usually is to try and download the zip on a less busy hour.
