I enjoy “painting” with Midjourney—it get’s me around my technical shortcomings as an artist! The Discord app and MJ front-end does not have a bulk download facility. Here is my work around.

Goto your Midjourney archive.
- Login at Midjourney
- Navigate to Archive, top left
Create a page with the images you want to download. Zoom waaay out to get lots of images on the page.
In your browser, File -> Save As and select the Webpage complete option. This will create an HTML file and a subdirectory IN_DIR containing .webp files with your images.
Run Python code to convert to png files. I use great2 as the script g mj-process IN_DIR OUT_DIR.
The download has random file names, so these files are best clustered and renamed. This can be done using great2.ImageOrganizer. Select the number of clusters appropriately.
```
import great2 as g2
ic = g2.ImageOrganizer()
fl = Path(IN_DIR).glob('*.png')
ic.image_list = fl
ic.cluster(12, features='clip')
ic.make_links(OUT_DIR)
```
