Extension summary

🔥 Lightweight extension to customize the image preview page.

For now it's only the background color, but I'd be happy to add more features. Please leave a review with a comment about what you'd like me to add.

💜 Some notes

● User settings are currently set using storage.local, which means that if you have Chrome Sync on, the settings won't be synced across your devices.

● The alternate method is storage.sync, which in turn would sync the settings. I've chosen for local for certain limitation reasons. I'll change to storage.sync when I figure out a way.

● Currently the extension only works for URLs that explicitly have an extension at the end (most cases). So images with some special URL encoding with the extension won't work for now, I do want to implement this feature.

💜 Source code
