PBGrabber

PBGrabber is short for "Photobucket Grabber". It is a simple utility you can use to download an entire photo album from Photobucket in a greatly reduced amount of time. Obviously, this is most useful when you would like to download someone else's pictures, because if it was your own photo album on Photobucket, you would probably already have the pictures on your computer.

This program reduces time significantly because it downloads HTML source code (used for obtaining the URL's of the pictures to download) directly from Photobucket, so no advertisements will ever load.

All you need to do is Copy/Paste the URL of the Photobucket album you wish to download into the program window, and select a directory (or create one) to dump the photos to. Click the start button, and the program will download all of the pictures in the album to your computer.

Lots of times an album will span more than 1 page on Photobucket's website. To download the entire album at once (instead of each page individually), click the "View All" link before you Copy/Paste the URL. You can also add the string "?start=all" to the end of the URL if you cannot locate the aforementioned View All link.

PBGrabber runs on the .NET Framework 2.0. Sorry for the download. At least you only have to do it once :-)
