Features & Capabilities

The Transparent Standalone Images extension improves your image viewing in Firefox by removing the default white background shown on standalone images, such as those accessed via "View Image." Instead of the plain white, it renders images on a textured dark grey background, allowing you to clearly see where transparency begins and ends in images with transparent areas. This is especially beneficial for photographers, designers, and anyone who values image transparency and clarity.

The extension requires permission to access data on all websites to detect when a standalone image is loaded and to inject CSS that removes the background. No data is stored or read beyond this purpose. The source code is open and freely available, ensuring transparency and security. Enhance your browsing and image viewing experience with this lightweight, easy-to-use add-on.

Is Transparent standalone images Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Transparent standalone images requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
