## Description

A "new tab" page that displays daily changing images from various sources as well as top sites.

Selectable sources: a folder on your hard drive, NASA APOD, Bing daily image, Wikimedia Commons Image of the day, The Met, Flickr Explore

Additionally, the tab can optionally display customizable top sites.

I made this extension because I explicitly wanted a changing background image for my new tabs WITHOUT any tracking involved. This thing is completely open source and NO DATA AT ALL is transmitted to me.

Contact me if you want other image sources added!
