IMX.to - support

[version365]

Stop posting downloading discussion in this thread. IMX support actually reads this thread. Do you think they will like people discussing ripping their website? 😑

[Progishness]

Let's try and keep this thread for discussion about IMX please - any issues regarding downloading should be directed to the relevant support thread.

Hey everyone,

Just a quick reminder: IMX is an image host, not a file host. If you want to download without issues, please use the filehosts, or go directly to the gallery source .

We’re currently facing serious challenges keeping our servers stable. Many people prefer downloading rather than simply viewing, and our 10 Gbit connection just can’t keep up — it’s running at nearly 99% load all the time. That’s why there are occasional access problems with IMX.

The good news is that we’ll soon be releasing a Download API that will work without Cloudflare or DDoS-Guard issues. Please note, however, that all download apps will need a mandatory update to use it. Browser-based scraping will still not be ideal, but the Download API is designed for proper download tools and will also work without requiring an account.

Finally, just a gentle reminder: IMX is free. Sometimes, when I reading your posts, it feels like people treat IMX as if it were already a paid premium image host — with high expectations and complaints whenever something doesn’t work perfectly.. Right now, advertising doesn’t cover our costs, so you could even say IMX is running close to non-profit. That’s why we kindly ask for a bit more patience and understanding from you all.

Thanks for sticking with us!

Thank You for creating and maintaining IMX.TO

But, one of the ViperGirls Download App has stopped being supported years ago, and the only other one's last version is also from very long ago.

Could You please make Your new Download API work with JDownloader 2 ⚊ which is being updated as often as it needs to be ⚊ and Chrono Download Manager for Google Chrome, please, so we have more that one working option, please?

Thank You so very much!

Keep in mind that isn't IMX job (and neither any of the available image hoster) at the end of the day. JDownloader /other downloaders should implement/tweak their system like they did when login by cookies became a thing, but now with an api key.

Going to go a different direction here and say the uploading API is fantastic! The only thing I'm really missing is automatically assigning a name to galleries, but the script I built creates the bbcode and saves it to a text file, so once it's uploaded it's a simple copy/paste anyway. Thanks for everything!

Is it just me or something wrong with imx.to? I'm experiencing extreme slow when opening thread with imx links and downloading imx.to with VRipper 6.5.6

It looks like the site is down again - for a quick check you can always try:

https://imx.to/

It's not down from my perspective. It's just very slow. For the same metart thread, the pixhost post get open in an instant but the imx.to takes forever to be loaded.

[Progishness]

Ah OK... it seems to be back up again.

[nikkifan01]

Unlike the last time which temporarily zapped anything from July 31st 2025 right back to December 31st 2015, it seems it's mainly galleries from 2016 to Spring 2018 using IMX (almost every one one that I have bookmarked reads offline just now) and are behaving like three weeks ago ie. no thumbnails even with a VPN or not, most if not all from 2019 - 2025 seem fine.

[Progishness]

Yep it is still missing a heck of a lot of galleries.

[nikkifan01]

Thing is the bloody site is working, all the 2016 -2018 galleries are reachable in a round about manner, yet zero galleries/thumbnails are showing anywhere at VG.

The same thing happens to me, the uploads are so slow that after a few minutes the entire upload is corrupted.

Something i learned after this DDoS thing implementation, after 4-5 big sets (10-15 for not that big sets) logout, then log-in again, i had the same issues uploading big size photosets and that seems to do the trick, but it would be cool to have a formal solution.
