Google removed the 'View Image' button from Google Images due to copyright concerns (Getty Images settlement). This extension restores that functionality so users can easily view full-resolution images without visiting the hosting website first.

1. User installs the extension. 2. User performs an image search on Google Images. 3. When clicking on a thumbnail, a 'View Image' button appears alongside the image preview. 4. Clicking 'View Image' opens the full-resolution image directly in the browser tab.

Target users: Google Images users who want direct access to full-size images / General web users seeking convenience when browsing image search results

The unused paypal.png asset suggests there may have been a donation link at some point that was removed from the HTML but not the file system.
Many features are marked as deprecated in the source code (context menu, globe icon, copyright warning toggle), indicating the codebase is maintained but some features have been disabled.

Monetization

No paid features detected

The extension provides all functionality for free. No payment gates, subscriptions, license checks, or upgrade prompts exist in the source code. The only external image file is paypal.png in the img folder, but it is not referenced by any HTML or JS file (unused asset). All options and features are available without any payment.

Reason: The extension operates entirely client-side as a content script on Google Images pages. It injects a 'View Image' button without any authentication, account creation, or server-side communication. No login UI, auth tokens, or API authentication are present in the codebase.
