I really loved this extension. But the new version with background color looks crazy and makes it almost impossible to debug CSS. Please remove the background color, please, please.

For the last 5 years this has been my #1 used extension for CSS troubleshooting. An easy 5/5. I love that it was updated to meet Chrome's extension guidelines but it came with a huge additional change - adding background colors to every element. The background colors make it really hard to see the actual elements of my page. I'm not sure what the intent was with this new change, but it should be an option you can toggle or removed altogether. I will be looking for an alternative that is closer to what Pesticide originally was.

I found this tool while taking Angela Yu's web development course a couple of years ago. It has been invaluable. Excited to see the update, but I am finding that I cannot turn pesticide off without reloading the page. Also, instead of just colorful lines outlining the structure of the code, there are now background colors which make it tough to see where the "normal" outlines once were. 5 stars for our history together, but please address these issues. Actually uninstalling and re-installing the extension resolved the "cannot turn it off" issue. Background colors remain... This makes it more difficult to see the outlines.
