Pixel Flow user manual and best practices

Find scanning, filtering, image details, library, export, account, and industry workflow guidance by task.

Core Workflows

Pixel Flow’s core workflow is not just saving one image. It connects page image scanning, filtering, single-image review, favorites, tags, download history, exported records, and backup into one repeatable browser-side process. Use this page to choose the right guide for the task in front of you.

Pixel Flow capture feed showing scanned page images, format filters, size details, and batch action controls — The capture feed is the main entry point. Once the side panel opens, Pixel Flow turns detectable images on the current page into a filterable, selectable, batch-ready list.

Choose Your Task

What you want to do	Start here	Output
Find images from the current page	Capture Page Images in Bulk	A candidate list of images from the page
Check one image’s source, format, and metadata	Analyze One Image and Its Source	URL, dimensions, format, EXIF, AI/AIGC clues
Keep assets for longer-term projects	Favorite Images and Organize with Tags	A tagged local asset library
Save files while preserving context	Batch Download with Source Records	Image files, download history, and source records
Hand image candidates to a team or client	Export an Image Inventory	A reviewable Excel image inventory
Protect data before switching devices or uninstalling	Migrate Data and Avoid Data Loss	A backup package that can be imported later

A Complete Flow

Open the target page, then click the Pixel Flow toolbar icon or choose Manage Current Page Image from the page context menu.
After the side panel opens, the capture feed scans images that are already rendered on the current page. If the page lazy-loads content, keep scrolling so more images enter the viewport.
Use format, aspect ratio, source type, and resolution filters to remove icons, avatars, placeholders, and unrelated small images.
Select candidate images, then use the bottom action bar to preview, favorite, download, or export them.
For images that need review, open image details or the Preview page to check URL, dimensions, format, source page, EXIF, AI fingerprint, and AIGC parameter clues.
For long-term organization, save images to the library and tag them by project, client, purpose, permission status, or delivery stage.
For delivery, download files and keep the download history. For review or collaboration, export an Excel record. Before switching devices, uninstalling, or clearing browser data, create a backup.

Pixel Flow capture feed with selected images and bottom actions for rescan, download history, batch download, batch favorite, quick preview, Excel export, and cancel selection — After selecting images, the capture feed shows actions for rescan, download history, batch download, batch favorite, quick preview, Excel export, and clearing the selection.

How The Interfaces Work Together

Pixel Flow’s interfaces have different jobs. This overview connects them; the linked guides cover detailed button behavior.

Interface	Handles	Open it when
Capture feed	Page image scanning, filtering, selection, preview, favorites, downloads, and Excel export	You want to collect images from one page
Image details	One image’s basic info, source clues, EXIF, AI fingerprint, AIGC parameters, and download options	You need to judge image quality, source, or technical metadata
Preview page	Multi-image preview with left/right navigation and the same detail panels	You want to compare candidates before downloading or use deep inspect from the context menu
Library	Favorites, search, filters, tag editing, batch tags, and later downloads	Images have become part of a longer-term project library
Download history	Download tasks, timestamps, source entry points, and package files	You need to verify delivered files or trace a previous download
Settings	Sign-in, PRO status, scan thresholds, tags, file naming, conversion preferences, backup, and import	You need to change workflow rules or protect local data

Where To Go Next

If you are new to Pixel Flow, start with First Three-Minute Session to learn the basic motion. After that, choose by task:

For the full product map, read Feature Overview.
To collect images from a page, open Capture Page Images in Bulk.
To check one image’s source and metadata, open Analyze One Image and Its Source.
To organize images for ongoing work, open Favorite Images and Organize with Tags.
To keep downloads and source context together, open Batch Download with Source Records.
To share image records for team, client, or later review, open Export an Image Inventory.
Before uninstalling, reinstalling, switching devices, or clearing browser data, open Migrate Data and Avoid Data Loss.

Data, Permissions, And Rights Boundaries

Pixel Flow helps preserve source URLs, page context, download history, and exported records, but those records are review clues, not copyright permission. Before publishing, client delivery, commercial use, redistribution, or dataset preparation, separately confirm image rights, site terms, publicity rights, trademark limits, and your internal review rules.

Favorites, tags, download history, settings, and backups primarily depend on browser extension local data. Before uninstalling the extension, clearing browser data, reinstalling Chrome, or moving to a new device, export a backup package from Settings. After import, structured records such as favorites and tags can be restored; some temporary analysis data may need to be regenerated by reopening the image.
