Chrome Extension Tutorial

How to download every image from a web page (including lazy-loaded ones)

This tutorial explains how ZHX Image Grabber works — a Chrome extension still under active development and not yet publicly available. This content is prepared ahead of time so you know exactly what to expect at launch.

Why "right-click → save image" often isn't enough

If you've ever tried downloading a lot of images from one page — a product gallery, design references, or a photo collection — you've probably run into these three problems: images only appear after you scroll (lazy-loading), some images aren't actually <img> tags but CSS background-image (so right-click doesn't even show a save option), or the site has deliberately disabled right-click entirely.

ZHX Image Grabber is built to read a page more deeply than what's visible — including images drawn onto a <canvas> element via JavaScript, and different-resolution images served for different screens via srcset/<picture>.

How it works (4 steps)

01Open the web page whose images you want to collect
02Click the extension icon, adjust the size filter if needed
03Hit start — the extension auto-scrolls and scans on its own, results appear live
04Select the images you want, download them individually or all as a ZIP

A few things that make it more practical

A minimum size filter helps you skip small icons and decorative elements you don't care about, so your results aren't cluttered with noise. If you visit a site often, whatever filter you've set is remembered automatically for that domain — no need to re-enter it every time. After a scan finishes, results can still be filtered further by shape (landscape/portrait/square) or file format, and sorted by size.

For filenames, there's a customizable template — a combination of domain name, page title, index number, image dimensions, alt text, or date — so your downloads don't end up as a pile of meaningless image_001.jpg files.

Good to know before using it

chrome:// pages & PDF viewerCan't be scanned — a Chrome limitation
<canvas> imagesOnly a small preview is kept in history — download during the scan itself
Short-lived image linksMay already be expired if downloaded later
Paid licensed contentNot a tool for bypassing official anti-scraping protections
