Fantastic extension. As a teacher I use it all the time to create gifs from YouTube videos for my students

amazing. Has to render frames... but it makes sense why. Theres two buttons as said below tho...

Decent extension, does the job. But it appears to inject itself into the navbar twice, resulting in two "GIFit!" buttons at the very right.
