Busting whites since 2017
WhiteBuster Extension
- Converts all background-color of rgb/a(255,255,255), rgb/a(254,254,254) to selected color preserving opacity
- does it's best to deal with transparent items, iframes and runtime created elements
Caveats:
- White background images cannot be transformed
- Badly coded pages that run code depending on background-color being white may break. (I haven't found any so far ...)
