Proper image paste on 403

Fixes image pasting from browsers that fail with a 403 error, downloading the image locally instead of pasting a plain external image link that requires internet access.

Description

reddit

When copying and pasting images from the browser into Anki the error "Unexpected response code: 403" may occasionally occur, this add-on avoids this error and pastes the image. (jpg, png, gif, webp, etc.)

🚨Note-2026-07-09: If it doesn't work please send me the image URL, otherwise I can't reproduce the problem and I can't fix it. (So far this add-on seems to be working fine on my device.)

How to use

  1. Copy the image or its URL in your browser.
  2. Right click in the editor and select "Image Paster" to paste.

I have only tested this on the websites I use, if it doesn't work please contact me.

Notes

  • A window opens to download the image and auto closes immediately.
  • The local URL of the downloaded image is copied to the clipboard.
  • If the image URL cannot be found, paste normally without using the add-on.
  • If the downloaded file is not an image, it does nothing.
  • The image is temporarily saved in the add-on folder and will be auto deleted the next time you download.
  • Only one image can be downloaded at a time, multiple downloads are not supported.
  • Does not support anything other than images.
  • Only the editor is supported.
  • There are no options yet.
