Full summary

URL Hotlink Conversion

Behind the scenes conversion of html-embedded images to the image itself when browsing within Chrome.

You no long need to wait for imgur to stop giving you 503 (heavy load), and quickmeme's fatty html from clogging up your experience, this extension will immediately direct you to the image content right away!

example:
http://imgur.com/3TJkV -> http://i.imgur.com/3TJkV.jpg
http://www.quickmeme.com/meme/3q3uah/ -> http://i.qkme.me/3q3uah.jpg

Currently supports imgur and quickmeme.

Does your company block the extremely popular Imgur.com image hosting site?

Well this might be a solution for you. Most companies blocks the normal http:// version of the image, but they don't block the secured https:// version.

So the only thing that this extension does, is redirects to the secure https:// and adds .jpg as an extension.

So no more blocking and no more loading extra Imgur website extras, only load the image you require!
