Extension summary

This extension centers an image on the page when viewing a url of an image. If the page ends in a .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, or .png, the image will be centered on the page and the background will be changed to black instead of white. Unlike other similar extensions, this extension also works when viewing files stored on your local hard drive.

User reviews

Very simple code and does the trick mostly. It could use flexbox in the body tag to center the img instead though, since position:absolute doesn't work well on very big images when you zoom in.

Depuis mon passage de Firefox, je cherchais comment modifier la couleur de fond lors de la vue d'une image et c'est parfait ! Merci
