iSlide Extension

***** New 2020 Version *****

Ever got to a web page with a thumbnailed photo gallery and wanted to view all of the photos? Like me, you probably had to click each thumbnail, then click on Back, then click on the next thumbnail and so on... No more! With iSlide you get to watch all the large photos with one click! Just click the iSlide icon in the Chrome Extensions toolbar and a photo slideshow based on the currently selected tab will open in a new tab!

Supports:
* Google Images, Instagram, Tumblr, Wikipedia and more!
* Any page with image links.
* Pages with links to image container pages (like Wikipedia for example).
* Ability to recognize images that are not linked as images.

Features
* Saving all the photos to disk.
* Hotkeys (checkout the options page for the full details)
* 2 viewing modes
* Customization via an options page
* Incognito support(*).

(*) In order to use iSlide in incognito mode you need to allow it to do so on the Extensions management page.

Upcoming Features:

* I am working on Facebook support, but can't promise anything yet as Facebook changes their page structure often.

I am always striving to improve iSlide especially in terms of compatibility. My goal is for the generic algorithm to manage as many sites as possible. If you have a feature request or you've found any pages that don’t work properly or any other bug, please comment below or email them to:

[email protected]

Enjoy!

p.s.
* I find that toggling full screen with F11 combines great with iSlide. Try it!

We Are (ID: 00000085d4baa648) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/08/2022 Stupid extension. Used it and then I can't fullscreen youtube videos, the taskbar doesn't disappear. :|

Anthony LHT (ID: 000000240133968f) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/29/2021 I like this extension and find it the best of it's kind. No other similar extension so no competition. It is very easy to use. With a single click, voilà the pics become a slideshow instantly. I've been using this for many years and it worked on most web sites, even Instagram. However, something is broken in Instagram recently and it no longer works. I hope the developer has a solution to the IG problem.

poko gunx100 (ID: 0000005b49900b2b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/23/2021 Works okay, I had to preview each and every image return to run as a slideshow

T Cox (ID: 0000004843a41748) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 08/23/2020 As of March 19, 2016 - no longer works correctly FPGA forced or not. UPDATE - August 2020... still does not work on Google image search (or any site with images really, just sits there on a black screen). Used to be my favorite extension, had hopes in January when the author responded and it did work for like a day. Looks to be abandoned again. Wish the author would open source.
