Iam trying to download many (1000's) of images from tumblr with a particular tag (.e.g #art). I am trying to figure out the fastest and easiest way to do this. I have considered both scrapy and puppeteer as options, and I read a little bit about the tumblr API, but I'm not sure how to use the API to locally download the images I want.Currently, puppeteer seems like the best way, but I'm not sure how to deal with the fact that tumblr uses lazy loading (e.g. what is the code for getting all the images, scrolling down, waiting for for images to load, and getting these)Would appreciate any tips!
I'm pretty rusty with the Tumblr API, not gonna lie. But the documentation is kept well up to date. Once you have the HTML of the post, the link to the images will be in there. There's plenty of libraries out there like Beautiful Soup that can extract the images from the HTML by their CSS selectors. Hope this helped!
My solution is below. Since I couldn't use offset, I used the timestamps of each post as an offset instead. Since I was trying to specifically get the links of images in the posts, I did a little processing of the output as well. I then used a simple python script to download every image from my list of links. I have included a website and an additional stack overflow post which I found helpful.
I'm trying to download images form tumblr using java selenium. I extracted the url of the image from src and tried to download images from url. But the images saved not what I expected. Those are in unsupported formats and smaller in size. How can I correct this? Please help.
Tumblr is a microblogging and social networking site that allows users to post various multimedia content such as images, gifs, videos, audio/music, etc. Sometime in 2018, Tumblr underwent a great purge of accounts resulting in some media content being lost forever because no one backed up those Tumblr accounts. If you really like a Tumblr blog, you better back it up because you may find out it's gone the next time you visit. Downloading images and videos from Tumblr is easy for single posts via right-clicking however when you want to download hundreds of posts or an entire Tumblr blog, the process becomes cumbersome. For that, you need a Tumblr downloader. One Tumblr downloader that gets the job done is WFDownloader App. It's a free bulk downloader that can quickly download images and videos from many websites including Tumblr. The tool supports downloading images, gifs, and videos from entire Tumblr blogs, archives, tags, searches, and even single posts. The downloader can also download from private Tumblr blogs or posts via cookie import. It's free and cross-platform (i.e., it runs on any PC whether the OS is Windows, Mac, or Linux).
The process is simple. You simply copy the link to the Tumblr page, paste it into the application then perform a search. If the Tumblr page is private, you will have to first import cookies from your browser as explained at the beginning of this article. For example, to download images from a Tumblr post, just copy the link to that page and paste it into the app as shown below. Notice that only images were found.
If you don't want to install an external/third-party tool, there are online tools to download from Tumblr. The limitation is that they work on only public Tumblr accounts and only download from single posts. If you're on a mobile phone and only want to download an image or a video, this might be what you are looking for. One popular Tumblr video downloader that works is
thedownvideo.com. Just copy and paste the link to the Tumblr video into the text field and then click on the download button.
This article has illustrated how to download images and videos from Tumblr whether in bulk on from single posts. Note that WFDownloader App is not an official Tumblr downloader and so it can stop working at any time. When Tumblr changes something, the app will have to be updated. Report any issues you encounter to get them fixed. The app can also download from other blogging platforms such as Blogger and WordPress. The same process applies, just copy and paste the link!

no, alt text and image descriptions serve the same purpose, but they are different in how they are presented. Alt text, short for alternative text, is included in the html of an image and can be read by a screen reader. However, there are many reasons why many prefer image descriptions over alt text.
Everyone who is able to should create image descriptions. A content creator is best able to communicate the message of their work through text, as they are the one who created it and thus understand its message the best. While of course it takes practice when starting out, over time image descriptions become second nature when posting visual content. Always check the notes of a tumblr post for an ID rather than reblogging without one.
There is no simple answer to this question, there are a variety of resources and guides on how to create one, and you should not accept my advice as the ultimate authority, as I am by no means a professional, and only create descriptions in my spare time as part of the effort to make Tumblr more accessible. However, here is my information for those starting out.
Are there any tools that let me download an entire Tumblr blog? I'm not just looking for pictures and videos (I've seen tools for that) but also actual blog-posts (text)? Preferably there would be one tool to download everything (text, pictures, videos).
I don't know to what degree Tumblr uses other "external" (non-tumblr) services to host pictures and videos, but the program should be able to collect all content for a page/post, even if it spans to other hosts.
If you want the whole thing, posts & images, use this Tumblr Backup to give you a tarball including everything. A .TAR file is similar to a .ZIP file, and can be opened with 7-Zip if you're using Windows. It's python-based, and the developer even made the code available online if you want to tweak it yourself!
Tumblr has an "Export" function, available at , that will export all of your posts, including any pictures or videos. When you download the backup (after Tumblr creates it, which can take days), you get a separate HTML file for each post, with associated media in a separate folder, along with an XML file listing all your posts.
