this version is depreciated. the latest version (0.8.4) (april 2024) is available here:

March 2024: restores the image showing in middle instead of right hand side (what I really wanted) but does not always allow you to click on or navigate through every image. Not sure what the exception is to some of these images. Also no title/description/website visible when image menu is clicked. Images can be saved still.

The VISIT button doesn't work anymore.

It's supposed to take you to the WEBPAGE where the photo appears, but instead it just shows you the PHOTO.

In other words, the VISIT button just does the exact same thing as the VIEW button.

This makes it impossible to use Google Image Search for shopping. If you search for STAR WARS T-SHIRT and find one you like, you CAN'T click through to the vendor.

So if you want to use GIS for shopping, you have to disable the extension just to be able to visit the website.
