Images ON/OFF - Control Image Display On Chrome

Images ON/OFF is a handy Chrome extension designed to give you control over the display of images on websites you visit. With a simple click, you can disable or enable images on the current site. This functionality operates on a per-host basis, meaning it affects only the session in the chosen tab, not all tabs. While there are options available for customization, the core functionality of this extension effectively serves to control image display.

Extension summary

Use this extension to disable/enable images on the current site.

It's a simple switch: click to disable, click to enable.

It works on "per host" basis and will disable images for the given host (the currently selected tab), not for all hosts.

There are some options available, but basically, the extension does just that and nothing more.
