Image Blocker EX+ 9000

Ridiculously powerful and customizable image blocker
What is Image Blocker EX+ 9000?
Image Blocker EX+ 9000 is a user-friendly Chrome extension enabling users to fully control images displayed on their browser. Its features include the capacity to permanently or temporarily disable image downloads. The extension allows users to whitelist or blacklist specific domains to suit their browsing preferences. Although some pages without images can appear mangled due to the lack of downloaded images, the browser can compensate and correctly lay out the page when the sizes of images are declared. Image control has never been this powerful and customizable.

Extension summary

Prevent almost all images from downloading. Prevent the rest from being shown.

The toolbar button can disable permanently or temporarily. By default it is temporary.

Supports domain whitelisting and blacklisting. Pages on whitelisted domains will show images even if Image Blocker EX+ 9000 is enabled. Pages on blacklisted domains won't show images even if Image Blocker EX+ 9000 is disabled.

Pages without images may appear mangled; this is an unavoidable side-effect of not downloading the image. Some pages will declare the size of images, and then the browser can lay out the page properly even if the image is missing, but this isn't very common.

This extension is very useful, but unfortunately it may no longer be supported soon. I recommend a similar plug-in "Hide Images|Videos" for everyone to try. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/lnemmogegmgllangfmlpclaomcknfnbp
