Jason Zoeller (ID: 0000000b9f1da1b5) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/03/2018 This used to be really useful but it hasn't been updated in 4 years. Very infrequent that it works as it should. In it's current state, I wouldn't recommend it.

Mark Zeta (ID: 0000001c5ca0cb06) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 03/27/2018 It's good when you want to share via email, but nowadays I use facebook share extension to do it more often. So this extension has become less useful. I disabled this extension recently because it would clash with Amazon website. When viewing an item, I would select a size from the dropdown and the page would freeze.

Derrick Jones (ID: 000000429df02140) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/27/2018 *UPDATE 2018: Images will not load* - Just what I was looking for. I have been looking for something like this for over an hour, after my search failed, I stumbled over this one. What luck.

Benjamin Richardson (ID: 000000d43a78bb62) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/04/2018 Absolutely loved it whilst it worked. Unfortunately for the last few months no image is pulled into the clip whilst using Chrome. Reinstalling Clip Better, Chrome and Windows itself has not resolved the issue. Try it though, if it works for you it is a fantastic way to send very engaging link previews.
