A collection of improvements and new features for COLOURlovers.
COLOURlovers Plus! Extension
Why? Because you're awesome, that's why.
The extension approaches its mission in two ways: modifying the existing design to better suit the way you're COLOURlovin', and adding new, extra functionality to extend the COLOURlovers experience way beyond the tab.
***
FEATURES
♥ Changes in the COLOURlovers interface, such as a navigation bar that scrolls with your window, more comfortable love notes, or direct replies on lovers' profiles.
♥ Classic ways of keeping you updated: a Google Mail Checker™-style notification and love note indicator (“label”), and the small desktop popups from instant messengers we so love (“toasts”).
♥ An options page completely integrated into Chrome's look and feel providing you with fine-grained control over the functionality you want – and the functionality you don't.
♥ Automatic synchronization of your settings via Chrome sync.
