How do I upload many images from URLs at once?

Paste the links into the box on this page, one per line, and press Import. MyIMGs downloads every image into your account for you, then shows a table with each old link next to its new MyIMGs link. You can import up to 50 links at a time with a free account and up to 200 with Pro.

How to import images from a list of links

  1. Sign in to your free account, or create one in a minute.
  2. Paste your image links, one per line. Choose private, auto-delete or a gallery if you want them.
  3. Press Import images, then copy the list of old and new links when it finishes.

Which image links can I import?

Each link must be a public http or https address that points straight to a JPG, PNG, GIF or WebP file. Links to web pages, to files that need a login, or to private network addresses are skipped and listed with the reason. A file can be up to 32 MB with a free account and 96 MB with Pro.

What is it good for?

  • Moving the images of an old forum or website to a host you control.
  • Replacing broken or temporary image links in your posts with permanent ones.
  • Saving the pictures from a list of links into one account, ready to put in galleries and albums.

How is this different from the Image to URL tool?

The Image to URL tool takes one image at a time and works without an account. This page takes a whole list at once and gives you the old and new link side by side, which is what you need to move many images. It runs in your account.

The usual reasons are a link that is not a direct image file, a file that needs a login, an image that was removed (404), a file over the size limit, or an account that is full. Each failed link is listed with its reason, so you can fix those and import them again.
