Extension summary
HN-Tweaks does exactly that, it tweaks the Hacker News website with a few additional navigation links. The goal is simple. Provide additional features using the existing style and design of Hacker News. The new links and menu fit in with the current style and color scheme of HN.
It adds a drop down menu that provides quick and easy access to different lists on Hacker News, lists that are frequently forgotten or missed by members. It also provides easy access to your saved stories, as well as your comments (via your karma).
I'm also willing to add in additional features that fit with the theme and style of the Hacker News website.
-- Version 1.3.3 - Updates so Twitter feature works with new HTML changes. Version 1.3.2 - Fixes display bug that added extra padding to table rows. Version 1.3.1 - Fixes a bug that made selecting text impossible in some situations.
Version 1.3 - Allows you to now follow users. Highlights user names on posts and comment so you can easily find the users. Easy access to user's comments and submissions.
Version 1.2 - Adds a link to hnnotify to the menu dropdown
