Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension blocks animated images (*.GIF and *.WebP formats by default) to save bandwidth usage and improve page loading performance. The extension can get enabled or disabled from the action button. Once the extension is enabled, no animated resource is fetched from the internet. Instead, the remote image is replaced by a local alternative.

When blocking mode is enabled, the user can still selectively load blocked images from the right-click context menu over the image context.

How does it work:

This extension redirects all the animated image requests to the local SVG image. This way, there is no server request at all (not even the HEAD request).

Features:

You can unblock an image from right-click context menu. The unblocking stays for this browser session. Or until the extension is disabled by pressing the toolbar button.

It works! Improvement suggestion: block the stupid ".gifv" too!

I'm bombarded with these flipping gif images on Facebook. This doesn't stop them. I hoped it would work...but it doesn't. :(

Doesn't work, I still see animated gifs all over but it does slow down every page load and interfere with other non-gif images.
