Been having the same problem for more than a year. Imgur & motherless also stopped working. Looks like ripme is abandonedware at this point.

I found out why ImageFap is nolonger worker. The Admin posted this:

"Bandwidth (data signal being sent to you from us) is our 2nd most expensive part of running the site. And 2 years ago or so, when the pandemic came, people were mass downloading pictures like mad crazy. Full galleries all the time by many users. Since this is a free site we had to do something to keep costs down.

Bulk Image Downloader, Download The All and other programs like that were fairly easy to detect on our end. Anyway, we did make changes on the site to stop the mass downloading and keep bandwidth costs down.

What we did isn't perfect. But the changes worked out pretty well. So that's it. Some people had to "mess around" and ruin it for everyone else."

Thanks buddy. This was helpful. I will abandon my hope of downloading imagefap albums altogether. Too bad they are the last place on internet where some image sets are available fully.
