Imageye Alternative

Imageye built a loyal audience with a clean thumbnail grid, quick size and URL filters, format conversion, and reverse image search on the current page. When you need an Imageye alternative, the job usually grew: many pages, scroll-loaded images, or repeat workflows that need saved tasks and consistent output. Bulk Image Downloader From URL List keeps the visual selection comfort in the side panel and adds URL-list scraping plus options-page task processing. This is a fair comparison; Imageye is still the better fit for fast single-page grabs with reverse search.

Where Imageye shines

• intuitive grid for picking images on one page
• fast filters by dimensions and URL text
• bulk selection and download from the current tab
• reverse image search for provenance checks
• WebP-to-PNG/JPG style conversion for quick handoff

If your workflow is open page, pick files, save, Imageye may be all you need.

Where page-level tools hit a ceiling

• Many source pages mean repeating the same steps per tab
• Lazy loading and infinite scroll hide images until you scroll them into view
• Post-download work (rename, resize, dedupe across URLs) stays manual
• Repeat jobs lack structured tasks you can export and restore

What Bulk Image Downloader From URL List adds

• Deep Scan auto-scrolls and waits for lazy-loaded or AJAX images
• Bulk URL scrape walks a pasted list (configurable max URLs up to 500 and delay between pages)
• Stack Mode merges results across pages into one collection
• grid and table views with dimension, type, aspect-ratio, and domain include/exclude filters
• Saved Rules with custom CSS selectors for sites you revisit
• scraper sessions you can export and compare between runs
• on-download resize, convert (JPEG/WebP/PNG), optional EXIF strip, and PNG watermark (Licensed PRO processing)
• perceptual duplicate finder, 404 checker, and redirect checker on the options page

There is no built-in reverse image search in this extension. Keep Imageye installed if you use that feature regularly.

The three layouts do not change what you get

Classic, Browser, and Pipeline save the same downloads, and only the screens change. That is worth stating against a page-level tool comparison, because the layout names can read like different product tiers when they are not. Switch from the top bar or from the layout buttons on the right edge of Classic, and your edits are saved before the screen changes.

The one interruption is deliberate: if a download is running, the extension asks before it switches. So a comparison here is about workflow shape, not output. Picking Pipeline over Classic changes how many steps you see, not which files arrive or how they are named.
