Why another downloader?

The existing album downloader had a few problems:

  • It didn't grab the highest resolution of images.
  • It didn't save titles or descriptions of images
  • It didn't try to find other albums in the description of images

Note

This app uses the Imgur.com developers API, so you'll need an imgur.com account to create a new application and generate a new clientid for your app. After that, you'll have to write the clientid in the configuration file, which is automatically generated for you when you first run the app, at ~/.config/imgurdownloader/settings.conf
