As the owner of your images, you have the ability to download original files back to your computer at any time. You can images one at a time, or simply download all of the images in a Gallery in one action.
Please note that there’s not a way to download all of the images in every Gallery in your account in one action; rather, bulk downloads must be completed by the Gallery. |
There are a few different ways to download original images from your account; and while it is noted that these steps can be used for images, they can also be used to download videos from the account.
