How to Extract All Images From a Website (4 Ways)

Extracting images from a website means saving the pictures on a page — one at a time or all of them — as files, or into a tool where they stay connected to their source. The best method depends on how many images you need and whether "loose files in a folder" is actually what you want; researchers usually need the second thing, which is where most guides stop too early.

The four ways at a glance

Method 1: Save a single image

Right-click the image → Save image as… (or drag it to your desktop). For one image this remains unbeatable, and no tool improves on it. The catch appears at scale: twenty images later you have twenty anonymous files and no idea which page they came from.

Method 2: Bulk image downloaders

Browser extensions and online tools can grab every image on a page — filtered by size, type or folder — into your downloads. They solve volume but not meaning: files land without context, and online variants involve uploading the page URL to a third-party service. Fine for assets you'll sort immediately; frustrating for research.

Method 3: Capture images into your knowledge base

The method this site is biased toward, because it solves the actual research problem — images that stay connected to their page, notes and project:

1. Install Uniclip (free, Chrome/Edge).
2. On the page, use the element picker to capture an image, a card containing it, or a grid of images.
3. They save into Notion, Obsidian or Feishu — with the page title and source URL attached, alongside the text clips from the same page.

For design references, product photos and competitor screenshots, the image plus its source plus your note is the unit of value — not the file. Visuals can also ride along in the same capture as a full-page screenshot for the whole layout.

Method 4: Screenshot the whole page

When what matters is the page's composition — a hero section, a gallery layout, a pricing page design — a full-page screenshot preserves it better than extracted files. Combine: screenshots for layout, element captures for the specific images you'll reuse.

Bonus: showing images inside a spreadsheet

Extracted images usually end up referenced from a sheet. Google Sheets can display them in a cell with the IMAGE formula:

=IMAGE("https://example.com/photo.jpg")

Paste that in any cell and the image renders inline — optional second and third arguments control sizing (=IMAGE(url, 2) fits the cell, =IMAGE(url, 3, 120, 90) sets pixel height and width). Pair it with a CSV of image URLs and you have a visual catalog: one column of links (captured with table capture), one column of =IMAGE() cells rendering them.

A note on rights

Images on a page belong to someone. Saving pages for personal research, reference and internal use is normal practice; republishing or commercially reusing extracted images requires the owner's permission or a license. Check the page's license or terms before anything public.

FAQ

How do I download all images from a website at once? A bulk-downloader extension saves every image on the current page as files. If the images are for research, capturing them into Notion or Obsidian with their source attached (method 3) ages far better than a folder of files.

Can I extract images into Excel or Google Sheets? Sheets can display images via =IMAGE(url); Excel needs the URL inserted as a picture or an add-in. Store the URLs as data — they render wherever you need them.

Does Uniclip download image files in bulk? No — Uniclip captures images as part of your research library (into Notion, Obsidian or Feishu, with source links), not as a mass file downloader. For raw file exports, use a dedicated downloader.
