en I really like the simplicity of this extension. Only reason I did not give 5 stars, is because I would really like the blur setting to be unique to each site. Some sites require more blurring than others. Also, it would be nice to be able to blur images only, or videos only, and again on a site-specific level. It also does not seem to work on YouTube thumbnails, but only the channel avatars and other icons.

en Hello. I salute the developers of Image Blur extension. I have one request for modification. In my opinion, it would be better if the background color of the icon changes to red or other colors when the extension is activated. It is inconvenient because it looks the same whether it is activated or deactivated, so I have to click the icon every time to check the status. Please help me.
