Image Hider Injector

Image Hider Injector Chrome Extension

The Image Hider Injector is a Chrome extension designed to enhance browsing privacy by concealing all images on web pages efficiently. Once installed, this extension injects a content script into each visited web page, automatically hiding every image (<img> tag`) and even monitoring the DOM for any new images to hide them as they appear.

Key Features

• Automatic Image Hiding: The extension removes all images from web pages seamlessly, allowing for a clean and distraction-free browsing experience.
• Persistent Functionality: This extension is always active and operates continuously in the background, ensuring that images remain hidden without manual intervention.
• No User Interface: Unlike typical extensions, there is no popup or options page; once installed, the extension runs autonomously, reflecting a straightforward approach to image management.

Technical Overview

The core functionality is handled by a content script (content.js) that executes on every webpage. This script efficiently hides all existing images and continually observes the document structure for any new images that may load later, ensuring an uninterrupted experience.

Users who wish to personalize their experience can manually add custom icons by providing PNG files labeled as icon16.png, icon32.png, icon48.png, and icon128.png within the extension's directory.

This extension serves as a valuable tool for users seeking a minimalist browsing experience or anyone looking to reduce visual clutter while navigating the web.
