Transparent Standalone Images Extension

In Chrome all standalone image pages (for example, when you right-click and choose \"View Image\"), show their image on a white background. This is good for images that were created with the expectation that they would be viewed on a white background.

However, most people who take care with the images that they create don't make this silly mistake. With this add-on installed, you won't have to see that ugly white background behind your transparent images. Now your images will be rendered against the black background, making it easier to see where the transparency starts and begins.

Makaii (ID: 00000021ec870ec8) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 06/18/2021 Found it on Reddit, and works fine. My only complaint is that it doesn't work on local images being drag-'n-dropped onto chrome to view it in a standalone tab. Something I've often done to get around Windows' horrible image viewer.

dyinghere (ID: 00000035a73d8b01) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/20/2021 Thanks, I couldn't tell what had happened, thought it was an issue with my own computer because googling it was giving me unrelated answers. Found this linked from a reddit post after searching for several minutes.
