Images on X
Photos are already files — with one trick worth knowing.
By using this site you confirm you have the right to download the file you request.
The full-size trick
X serves a scaled copy of a photo in the timeline and keeps the original behind a parameter. Open the image on its own, then add ?name=orig to the end of its address, and you get the full-resolution file rather than the timeline’s version.
That is a browser gesture, not a conversion, which is why there is nothing here for a server to do.
What this tool is for
Video and audio. A post mixing photos and a video resolves to the video; the stills are images you save directly.
Frequently asked questions
Will you add image downloading?
There is nothing to add. The browser already saves it, and ?name=orig already gets the original.
