Works when you navigate to www.google.com and search from there. Does not work at all when you use any other method to access google search, including searching from the address bar in chrome. Seems like a weird oversight, but it completely kills the usefulness of the extension
Excellent. This makes Google images much more usable.
I don't hate it, I love it, but it has stopped working (May 2021). Have reinstalled a few times. Any advice?
best extension iv ever downloaded saw this in google forums about why google put images in a side panel (just why google?) i tried it and works so perfectly love it
Absolutely essential!
WORKS LIKE A CHARM!!!
So so happy with this. Love how with the "new and improved" google photos when I click on a thumbnail, I get, tada! The same thumbnail. So infuriating. Thank you so much for fixing this ludicrous change to Google images.
Since a couple of days some things has changed. When I was looking for a visual in images, I could see the image size of all the images, but now I have to move the cursor over the image to see the image size. Not a big deal but it cost me time to move the cursor over each image to see its size. But the most important was the change of the option "Search google for image" which I use a lot. When I do this the results are displayed, but I can't no more to see the file size, so I have to open every image to find the file size that fits for me.
Works perfectly as of januray 18, 2021. Definitely not a bot..
Hi! Thanks so much for this. It's really so much better than what is being offered. However I noticed something changed recently. As I cycle through thumbnail images using arrows on keyboard and go progressively through the search images, now the extension window/expanded image does not track with where I am on the browser window. IE The extension window gets pushed further and further out of view down the page and out of view as the page seems not to recognize the position of which images i'm clicking through. I can scroll the page down to view the extension/ expanded image, but as soon as click the arrow key forward it returns me to the top of the thumbnail page with the extension once again out of view. I'm using this on latest version of google chrome browser on mac os.
