Screengrab of farewell blog post

API

Picplz has an API that returns data if you give it (incremental!) numerical ids.

https://sites.google.com/site/picplzapi/

http://api.picplz.com/api/v2/pic.json?ids=11183559
http://api.picplz.com/api/v2/user.json?id=1515537

Image formats: the API has several image formats available. We may or may not want all of them. The web interface uses the following formats: 56s,64s,100s,400r,640r,1024r (1024r being the largest version the API provides), so we might want to get those.

Download scripts

A first version of a download script is available in the GitHub repository. When given a numerical user ID the script uses the API to download all data and images of that user.
