download all yahoo photos in one go

just wrote a tiny greasemonkey script that changes the text-links on the yahoo photos album page to point to the hi-resolution version of the photo.

found a similar script here but it didn't seem to work on the album page, so just ended up writing one myself. also, you can now use the DownThemAll firefox plugin to download all photos (in Hi-Res) in one go

for people who have never used greasemonkey before - you will need to install the greasemonkey firefox plugin before being able to use this script. it basically allows you to change the behaviour of certain web-sites on your local machine by running custom javascripts called "user-scripts"
