Extension summary
Allows you to easily download any original Twitter media (like images, videos and GIFs) embedded in a tweet with 1 click, without manual selection, copying and pasting URLs and opening other sites.
Mouse over images displays a button in the bottom right corner. Clicking it downloads an original sized image.
All videos and gifs have a mouse over 'Download' button in the top left corner. Clicking it shows different video resolutions if available.
Since Twitter converts all incoming GIFs to MP4 you can either download it as an MP4 or upload it to 3rd party sites to convert - this is handled by EzGif.com, Giphy, ImgFlip and Gifs.com (more sites coming).
