Is there a quick way to download/extract all of the images on a web page? Safari, Netscape, et al just let me save as HTML, as text source, or, gruelingly, download each image one at a time. IE will let you make a one-file web archive, but then I can’t get at the image files later.
Are the images on the webpage links or thumbnails? If so, then use Flashget. After it has been installed, by right-clicking there will be two new options. “Download with Flashget” and “Download all with Flashget”. Choose download all with Flashget and then you can choose the file types you want to download (eg. bmp, gif, jpeg) or you can choose individual files. It works only with IE so far.
Check versiontracker.com for SiteSucker. It’s a freeware Mac OS X app

Or go straight to the source.
IE also gives you the save as ‘complete web page’ option, which is different from the one-file web archive you speak of, the .mht format.
For ‘complete web page’, it saves the basic HTML, rewriting all the dependency links to point into a subfolder that it downloads the dependent files (images, style sheets etc) into. Can be quite handy
Also, there are ways to take apart the .mht format… I think that winzip will open it up if you ask. (although there isn’t any naming information for the different objects inside the archive.) Basically it’s just a variant of one of the multipart MIME types, used for a local disk file. 
I once saved a page as an mht file locally, then brought up the local file in my browser (IE). I then saved it as “web page, complete” to see what would happen. It saved it pretty much as the original page, except the images had generic names instead of the original names.
Recent versions of Mozilla allow you to save the entire page (save as “Web Page, complete”); all supporting images are saved to a folder.
If you want to save linked images (when only thumbnails are shown on the main page) and prefer command-line utilities, you can use wget (link goes to a manpage), available through a lot of Unixlike shells (like Cygwin). With wget you can spider through a whole tree of webpages if you want.
Interesting posts-here’s a question: I saved a page several years ago, and it is a .htm which I cannot paste into an email, a word doc, or import into Photoshop.
Will the utilities discussed above assist with my problem? Many thanks.
If it really is a web page, it should work. You can always rename it from a .htm file to a .html file with no ill effects.
