Same as others have mentioned. I was excited to find this but It only said that the download was in progress then nothing else happened. This extension doesn't work.

I was so excited to find this extension because I was looking for something to do exactly this for me - let me download images in a compressed file size to save the time of opening in an image editor and resizing. Unfortunately, whenever I try to use it, it displays a message that image compression is in progress (was not in English but I put it in a translator in case I was missing an error message or instructions on something else I was supposed to do) but then never actually downloaded anything. So disappointed.
