Some sites have alternative versions of the image they display, usually it is the same image in different sizes. Here you can choose which version to capture. By default it is the largest version that passes your other filters. Other options include capturing the smallest one, all of them or all that have unique dimensions.
(Save config) submenu
Here you can set the folders, file names, and auto-conversion of file formats.All folders are saved in your downloads folder. By default each time you download an image the extension generates an increasing number as a folder name, made from the date and time. To set the folder manually change the radio button to the custom field. Leave it empty to save directly to your downloads folder or set a custom name, you can also set a sub folder.
Depending on your settings file names will be generated automatically or with a custom prefix name followed by an auto generated number. If you set the prefix to cat, then upon downloading 3 file, the names of the files will be: cat1, cat2, cat3.
To set the auto format converter, press the convert icon 
. In the pop-up window that opens, choose the file format to convert to. You can convert to JPEG, PNG, or WebP. For JPEG and WebP, you can also set the quality between 1 and 10, with 10 being the highest quality and 1 being the smallest file size. PNG is a lossless format, so the quality is always set to 10.
(Display) submenu
You can set here the following:
Whether the extension opens in a popup or as a side panel (not available in Firefox). In side panel mode, the extension stays active even when switching tabs.
The maximum width of the image in the result area (make it smaller to fit more images in the visible area at any given time).
The theme.
The user interface language.
Troubleshooting
Extension failed to capture the images
Refresh the page, wait until the images are loaded on the page, then open the extension. If it still fails, it is possible your filter is set too strict or that the site employs techniques that prevent image detection. See if you can capture images on a different site.
Can't set the name prefix
This is probably due to a conflict with another later installed extension. try to disable and then enable the image downloader extension.
