Artstor: Download to Zip File

Downloading a group of images directly to a Zipped file is easy:

1. To download anything from Artstor you must first log in to your registered account. 

2. Begin by creating an image group: 

• Search for the images you need

• Open the detail page for an image. Click the [+] button on the right to save the image to a group. Enter a name for your image group (“AH101 Final Presentation”), create one or more tags (for example “Presentations” or “AH101”), select your sharing permissions (private or everyone at your institution--you likely want to select private) and click save.

• Search for additional images you’d like to include, and add them to the same image group.

• You can also add your own images to the group using the "Personal Collection" feature.

• Use the “reorder” button to drag and drop the images into the order needed for your presentation.

3. Download your group:

• Open your group by going to the home page and opening “groups” under the browse menu, then selecting your group. Depending on the privacy settings you selected it will be saved under either the “private” or “institutional” heading.

• Click “download” just above the image thumbnails on the left. You can download as a PowerPoint presentation or a .zip file.

Zip files created in Artstor include the high resolution image file and an associated metadata file, which is saved as an HTML document and can be opened in any browser.

You can share a link to the images in your presentation by opening the presentation, and going to Share > Generate image group link.
