Gifnope Extension

Chrome extension which tries to pause the gifs that nag you. I found it useful when I am reading a document which contains some funny GIFs. By the way, authors: what about not using gifs inside a documents which is supposed to be read?

To pause the GIF(s) you can use one of these options:

- Use the contextual menu on a gif and select \"Pause animation\"
- Use the contextual menu anywhere in the page except on a gif a select \"Pause all animations\"
- Press the esc key and then click on the target GIF
- Press the esc key _twice_ to pause all GIFs in the document

Click on a paused gif to un-pause the animation.

The extension is open source and you can get it on Github (star it, if you like it!) https://github.com/claudioc/gifnope
