The Image Collector Description
With the help of The Image Collector you can seamlessly view and download images from popular file sharing websites, such as 4chan, deviantART and Photobucket. It comes packed with a few standard settings that can be quickly figured out.
Simple setup and interface
The installation procedure doesn’t take long, and the only notable aspect about it is that The Image Collector requires .NET Framework.
Once it’s over, you are welcomed by a user-friendly interface, which consists of a large window with a clear-cut structure, where you can manage installed web services and organize them into different groups. The app creates an icon in the system tray area for quick access.
View and download photographs
It can be asked to find and show the latest images on the websites, and you can check out their thumbnails in the list, along with their file format. All you have to do is pick an output directory and save any photos you want to the disk, whether we’re talking about all images or just a selected few.
Back up data and manage plugins
It’s possible to copy file names to the Clipboard, back up and restore data, open images with their full size in a built-in viewer, as well as create new categories by specifying the name, icon, group and location on the HDD.
New plugins can be obtained from the developer’s website, while the existing ones can be disabled. You can also deactivate automatic checkups for software updates, hide the system tray icon and the total number of items contained within each category, play sound on download completion, or change the number of download threads.
Evaluation and conclusion
The application had minimal impact on computer performance in our tests, running on low CPU and RAM. However, we couldn’t get it to launch in several cases, as it kept prompting an error message. Nevertheless, you can test The Image Collector for yourself, since it’s free.
