Peter Ledergerber (Ramanuta) (ID: 0000003c640f5f75) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/13/2023 I really like this Addon, it's really helpful when you want to just quickly look at a picture without opening it in a new Tab or in the current. It should be toggleable with a key-press or something, because sometimes it can get a bit annoying when you don't want it to enlarge a picture, but 99% of the time it's really useful. I can recommend this Addon to anyone that frequently uses Furaffinity.

Haily Engel (ID: 00000035b09ee010) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 08/04/2021 Good extension until the addition of the flavor text. The message that comes up "Faved...but would you want your mother to know you are faving ? :(" is unnecessary.

Caleb Boudreaux (ID: 000000ada530e284) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/05/2021 Exactly what i wanted! Not sure if it says this anywhere but it lets you fave posts by hovering over them and pressing 'f'. Now i can fave insane amounts of pictures far more quickly and easily :D Thank you so much!

Sil Houette (ID: 0000008d901752a7) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 08/26/2020 can you add a quick on/off toggle via key press. or it only being on when a key is being held? sometimes the big previews become annoying when mouse-wheeling a gallery.

Lappie (ID: 0000007eb0b326b7) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/22/2019 It was fantastic but seems to have stopped working since the last Chrome update?
