doesnt work at all. completely useless.
Hi. I think it comes to be a little bit bulky when youre dealing with a bunch of images...
so, my request would be if you could do another extnsion in where instead of opening another tab, the extension is a button where if you click it, it takes you from the low res image, to the 1280 url, but in the same tab.
thanks.
So useful!
