User reviews
I love this app. There is just one minor issue I've run across. On certain photo gallery thumbnail preview pages, if you select only photo links, the fight click context menu item for this extension isn't listed. However, if I select anything else in addition to photo links - even something as mundane as one random letter - it works perfectly
