Download your friends’ Facebook photos

Facebook is one of the most popular places to share photos. You're already connected to your friends and family. You can easily view their photos. But what if you want a copy for yourself?

Too bad. You can't download photos your friends post. You have to ask for copies. And they have to be sent to you some other way.

Well, two tools fix this problem. The first is PhotoGrabber. Simply log into your account. Choose a friend off your friends list. Then download your friend's photos. They must be tagged with your name or friends' names. You can't choose specific photos. It's an all-or-nothing affair.

FacePAD offers a little more control. It's a Firefox add-on that lets you download specific photo albums. You can grab just the photos you want.

(Photo downloading may be restricted by your friends' privacy settings. Also, Facebook photos are heavily compressed. Don't expect high-quality photos.)
