Replace the Image in an <img> with local file

Replace Image Locally: Preview Website with Local Images

"Replace Image Locally" is a unique Google Chrome extension, designed for designers and website owners. It allows you to substitute existing website images with those stored locally or image URLs to visualize changes. The interface is user-friendly and has an instantaneous effect but does not save changes post-refresh. Notably, being purely browser-based, it ensures your data isn't stored on remote servers offering high data security.

User reviews

The extension doesn’t work on modern websites which use the srcset attribute. Would be an easy fix to also delete this attribute on the img tag, then it would be a great extension! Edit: Thank you for making it open source. I just submitted a pull request to fix this issue.
