About Remove Images
Hide images on any website with one click. Per-site settings that persist across sessions. Layout stays intact. Lightweight, open-source, CSS-only.
HOW IT WORKS
• Click the extension icon to hide all images on the current site
• Click again to bring them back
• A green "ON" badge shows when images are hidden
FEATURES
• Per-domain settings — each site remembers its own toggle state
• Persists across sessions — your preferences survive browser restarts
• Layout-safe — images are hidden without collapsing or shifting the page layout
• Diagonal stripe placeholders show where images were
• Works on dynamic content — lazy-loaded and SPA-injected images are handled automatically
• Handles inline CSS background images
EXTREMELY LIGHTWEIGHT
The entire extension is under 3KB of code (<150 lines) — just two small scripts and a CSS injection. No frameworks, no bundlers, no dependencies. It
uses a pure CSS approach to hide images (no heavy DOM manipulation or mutation observers walking the tree). The result is zero measurable
performance impact on any page.
USE CASES
• Reduce distractions while reading articles
• Save bandwidth on slow connections
• Improve accessibility for users sensitive to visual content
• Speed up page rendering on image-heavy sites
• Focus on text content without visual clutter
PRIVACY
• No data collection — all settings stored locally on your device
• No network requests — the extension never phones home
• Minimal permissions — only activeTab and storage
