Serious Reminder: less than 24 hours remain to back up Abload.de images [EDIT; now shut down].

The site's shutting down June 30th and taking many years of hosted images with it. Check your forums, your Discords, your browser histories, etc. for any pics you want to back up!

EDIT; now shut down

oof, joining the ranks of Tinypic, Photobucket (i still get E-Mails from them begging to upgrade to a paid subscription.) and technically Discord.
though in the last case it's more of a mild annoyance, as posting the URL on a server refreshes the link, allowing you to archive it elsewhere.

Any quick way to do this? I have 41 pages worth of stuff on there and just now seeing this.

EDIT: nvm managed to download all my images one by one.

I've been using BitComet as a batch downloader. It still requires assembling the links into a tidy list, though.

Also been batch downloading images off of forum pages with the Firefox addon DownThemAll. Setting up the filters is a little tricky though, and sometimes manual downloading is needed due to http vs https.

I backed up all (I think) the Abload images in the Video Game Screenshots thread, a total of 156:

I downloaded from the folders I made on Abload. I downloaded all 1200+ images of mine by hand over the course of the day. Glad I managed to get all my stuff before the end. You will be missed Abload. You were a good no nonsense image uploading site that didn't compress images.
