Save Image as Type - Save any web image as PNG, JPEG or WEBP via Safari Extension

Hi everyone! The story behind this app is quite simple. After getting my first MacBook last year and using Safari as my default browser, I noticed a lack of essential extensions for developers and designers. I needed a tool to quickly download images in different formats, so I decided to create one myself. The result is "Save Image as Type" a streamlined extension that allows you save any web image as PNG, JPEG, or WEBP, simplifying your workflow and keeping your images in the format you need. It seamlessly integrates with Safari, ensuring a smooth and privacy-focused browsing experience, as it doesn’t collect any data. I hope it can be helpful for many people out there. I've also coded other Safari extensions, such as a font identifier, a color picker, a SVG Picker, a CSS inspector, and more.

Amazing work on "Save Image as Type"! This is a much-needed tool for anyone working with web images. The seamless integration with Safari and the ability to choose different formats will definitely streamline workflows. Do you have any plans to expand this extension to other browsers like Chrome or Firefox in the future?

If you often save images from the web, Save Image as Type is the Safari extension you need. It's a huge time-saver and very easy to use. Love to try it out! :-)

Sounds super handy for devs and designers who need to grab images quickly in the right format. Congrats on launching this—definitely going to make my workflow easier!😊

This extension looks super handy, especially for folks like me who are constantly downloading images for projects. The fact that it integrates right into Safari and lets you choose the format is such a time-saver.

Great idea, I always have to convert images after I download them to use them.

Congratulations! We need more products like these.

Great job, @ag_uxdesign! "Save Image as Type" sounds like a game changer for developers and designers. The integration with Safari is crucial, especially with a focus on privacy. Can't wait to try it out and see how it simplifies my image workflows. It's awesome to see someone turn a need into a solution! Keep up the amazing work, and I'm excited to explore your other extensions too. 🚀

Congrats on the launch of Save Image as Type! A great tool for simplifying image saving—well done!

I do this so much. super useful plugin!

I recommend paying attention to Save Image as Type, an extension for Safari that will greatly simplify working with images on web pages.

The new Safari extension seems to be a rehash of existing tools like Download All Images or Save as Type, can't see how it's different or better, especially with the same old options like PNG, JPEG, and WEBP, it would be more interesting if it supported newer or less common formats, also would love a bulk download feature to save multiple images at once, any plans for that? Having more unique features could make it more appealing, just my 2 cents

Seems like a decent idea but honestly who needs another extension clogging up Safari, nice try though maybe focus on something more innovative next time

This extension feels a bit unnecessary, I mean, couldn't you just use existing tools to save images in different formats already, what's the point of adding another thing to clutter Safari, maybe instead of just saving images in various formats, it could offer some basic editing, cropping or resizing, and could it be made to work on other browsers too, kinda feels limited right now, thoughts on that?

So what's the big deal here, a Safari extension to save images as PNG, JPEG or WEBP? There are already tools like "Save Image As" extension that does this or even "Image Downloader" which works better on other browsers, wouldn't it be more useful if it could batch process images or support more exotic formats?

Okay, cool but another Safari extension to save images, feels like a copy of Save as WebP and Convertio, i wonder what makes this different, hope its not clunky like the others, ugh, anyone else think these extensions are getting out of hand, maybe just me

Interesting concept though I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle, images are easily saved in different formats by default already right, is the added step through the extension really a time-saver or just an extra click, also curious if there are plans to support other web browsers instead of just Safari

So another Safari extension to clutter our browsers, I mean sure, saving images in different formats can be useful sometimes, but do we really need this, don’t we already have enough tools for this, feels like just another gimmick, maybe I’m missing something but it seems like more of a nice-to-have than a game-changer

Saw this from an ad, honestly not impressed, there are already tons of extensions like this, ever tried SaveImg or FormatConverter, they do the same thing and have been around longer, also your tool could use some polishing, the interface feels clunky, good luck tho
