Share a board with a link.
Group references into a collection, then copy its link. Whoever opens it sees the pictures with their creators and can add the whole board to their own library in one click.
The link holds only references to the original posts. The pictures load from Bluesky, so nothing is uploaded or hosted, and every picture links back to the artist.

Good to know
Do I need the extension?
No. You can paste post links, import your likes and bookmarks, or share from your phone. The extension is the fastest way to save while you browse, and it also downloads images and video on its own.
Is it free?
Saving, searching, collections (3), a moodboard (1), sharing boards and complete profile archives are free. Premium, a one-time purchase, adds unlimited collections and moodboards, smart moodboards and bulk tools. Keeping your pictures in a folder on your computer, and backing up your boards, tags and collections, is free. A paid plan for sync across devices may come later, and it will be optional.
Where is everything stored?
In this browser, on this device. Browsers can clear a site's data when a computer runs short of space, so Musepile reminds you to back up: to a file, or to a folder it keeps up to date for you.
What if the original post disappears?
Your saved copy stays in your library. The link back may stop working, so the creator’s name stays with the file. Please respect artists’ rights when you use or share saved work.
Are my pictures uploaded for analysis?
No. Optional tagging and similar-image search run on your device.
