Image Hider Extension

Hides images on a website, shows images temporarily on hover.
Shows images again by clicking the extension icon.

Hide/Show preference works on a per-domain basis, meaning you can have one website hide images and another show them.

Preference is saved automatically using HTML5 LocalStorage.

Updated 12/07/2015 -- Now you can hide background images by toggling a setting (right click on the extension icon to find the setting). Note that this applies to all websites when toggled and may cause unwanted effects (ex: may hide button icons).

Updated again to fix default hide status.


This is an open source project under the MIT license.

Note: it does not currently work on videos, or other media.

Analog Weapon (ID: 000000db9c7e5b15) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/14/2023 Would be 5 stars if there was an option to set the default mode to "show". As it is, it defaults to "hide" on every page. Since it keeps track of the mode by domain (Which is good), you have to turn it off for each new domain you visit (Which is bad).
