User reviews
The best app you never knew you needed. I use it constantly and make all sorts of images larger because isn't always an available option. The one thing is I'm pretty sure that this extension has messed up a captcha or twenty but it's still that useful, unique, and effortless to use that I wanned to leave a review to support!
