Summary

Shift Click is everything you need:

  • an image extractor
  • an image sharing tool
  • an image downloader
  • an Instagram image downloader
  • a gif downloader
  • and much more!

This extension generates automatically a short URL that allows you to share any images in a record time. No useless UI in your browser, this simple shortcut helps you to keep it clean!

Shift Click uses a hit test to bypass blank divs from getting at the image. That means no more right-click + inspect. You can leave the dev tools behind.

Be prepared to save a Shiftload of time.

This is the first time i'm writing a review on the web store, thats SO GOODD

Bad: Print compatibility is very poor - images are split across pages in both portrait and landscape layout. After shift+clicking on an image, the image loads in a new window and if you move off the tab to perform other browsing you are interrupted once the image has finished loading, as it brings your focus back to the sift-click image tab. Good: On the plus side, I like the addition of the colour pallet.

Really handy tool. I use it all the time to quickly grab the full res image off a web page, without having to dive into the source code. My one criticism [and the reason I've knocked off a star] is that the Shift Click tab grabs focus, after the delay while it loads. So, if I'm 'shift+clicking' a few images on a page, I often have to click back onto the original tab every few seconds, as the Shift Click tabs keep grabbing focus. Makes it a very choppy process. Maybe add an option to open the new Shift Click tabs in the background?
