Worked fine until it started changing my pictures to negative colors?? I have two dark mode extensions but even with both of them off it was still not the right color until i removed this extension.

Only works while actively editing a document. Wish it also worked on the home page of Google Docs!

Makes a great, simple Google Docs dark mode. It does not work for other Google Suite apps, but it never said it would! It's a nice little hedgehoggy extension that does its one thing well.
