- Rated 1 out of 5by spiercy16, a year agoTested this and the first two images I saved only saved about the top-left 50% of the images. Otherwise, it's an excellent idea for an extension.

posted a year agoHmm, the canvas used for the format conversion should scale to the natural dimensions of the image, but it sounds like there is some enlargement factor that I missed with those. So I can test the problem site, could you email me at jscher2000@outlook.com or submit a new issue on https://github.com/jscher2000/Save-webP-as-extension/issues ? Thanks.
As a workaround until then, you can try the "IE11" button, which re-requests the image as an older browser to discourage sending modern formats. Depending on the site, that may work for you. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18029131, a year ago

(Update: version 1.5.1 pops up a little panel with some more options when the script is denied permission to read the page. Previously that just caused silent failure.) Developer response
posted a year agoHi morpheen, does the add-on entry show on the right-click context menu? If so, do the buttons display when you click the item? If so, do any of the buttons work or are they all nonresponsive?

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12752117, 2 years agoIt works real nice, provided the webp images are not in a frame (according to the explanation from the developer). But there's a workaround, opening the page in a new tab. After that, saving works. Fixing this minor issue would be excellent. Nice work and thanks!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Nikita, 2 years agoActually works, so I'm happy.
Shift + PNG.
Also, would be better to let the images save directly in last saved folder by default, instead of switching to it in options (and option isn't clear about what it does). - Rated 5 out of 5by Alex Pedruzzi, 2 years agoMuito bom! Converte imagens que muitos editores não reconhecem e oferece opções de qualidade na hora de salvar. TOP! Obrigado! XD
- Rated 5 out of 5by hope, 2 years agoworks exactly as it says it will, and i have it on for all image file types + it makes saving things instant! i couldnt live without it :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16639115, 2 years agoBrilliant, showstopping bit of internet sorcery. We love your mind!!!
Also used in conjunction with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dont-accept-webp/ - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17892269, 2 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Lucie, 2 years agoThis add-on is great! Really efficient, easy to use, discreet and customizable. Thank you!
- Rated 5 out of 5by megakarlach, 2 years agoIt simply just works, really great. It simply convert WebP to PNG/JPEG.
WebP is good but have some limitations, most systems and software generally does not have WebP, especially Windows (with it's photo viewer) and all old version of Photoshop until CC 2023, and some users hated WebP for many reasons, incl. had to convert files. - Rated 5 out of 5by Alex, 2 years agosince recently, the bar does not pop up on some images

Thanks a lot for the answer, now the bar appears.
Your supplement is the best, it is simply impossible to do without it.Developer response
posted 2 years agoSorry, yes, I changed a default setting in the last update. The bar used to always pop up in the "stand-alone" viewer (when you Open Image in New Tab). Now it only pops up automatically for WebP and AVIF images. But you can change it back in the Settings/Options.
Under "Button Bar Options" in the "Auto-close and Auto-open" section, there is a checkbox for "image/webp and image/avif only" -- uncheck that box to make sure the bar opens for all images if you might want to save a JPEG or PNG in a different format. - Rated 5 out of 5by Sauro P., 2 years agoI could not live without this extension. I do things that require me to save a lot of images all at once daily, so I've now grown completely dependent on this. Literally can't express how helpful this extension is to me, its my best friend in this cold dark world
- Rated 3 out of 5by Kis Albert, 2 years agoPlease add option to show bar for webp images only, I don't need this app for other images.
Developer response
posted 2 years agoHi, if you click the "gear" button on the info bar, you can find that option in the "Auto-close and Auto-open" section -- check the box in the parentheses:
[x] Open bar automatically on stand-alone web images ([x] image/webp and image/avif only)
I thought that was the default. [update 3/27/2023: version 1.3.3 sets that as the default, but this is not retroactive to existing installations if you have customized any settings already] - Rated 3 out of 5by Eschatological, 2 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Jacques, 2 years agoIt works but it is very invasive and annoying, I want to convert and choose a setting, I want it conerted silently, I don't want an annoying popup displayed on each picture, even on those that don't need to be converted.
As it is I prefer to save as webp and change the format afterwards in Photoshop ( with the adequate plugin and a script it is faster, give more control and it is more reliable)Developer response

* No automatic info / button bar *
On the Add-on's Options page, under "Button Bar Options", look for "Open bar automatically" and make sure it is *not* checked.
* Silent Save *
On the Add-on's Options page, under "Menu Item Options", you can set the "Plain click" action to save in your preferred format instead of showing buttons. Under "Save Dialog / AutoSave Options" you can control whether to show a Save As dialog or not.
I think that should resolve your concerns, but let me know if you don't find those options. - Rated 5 out of 5by Yoshimasa, 2 years agohighly customizable and im finally able to download web straight as png. I swear this is the only add on that does such a simple task
- Rated 5 out of 5by pjmarengo, 2 years agoThis has become one of my favorite and most frequently used Firefox extensions. I often download pictures from the web and it's so annoying when they are in the .webP format hat makes them hard to work with. This extension makes it so easy to download them as jpegs; I just right click and "open image in new tab" and that picture now has the options for the download format. Easy peasy.
As for downloading gifs... while this extension does not do that, it's very easy for anyone to do without an add-on: Click on the gif you want. From the Firefox toolbar at the top select tools --> page info --> media. Scroll down the list and click on the one you want; then click "save as" on the right-hand side.Developer response
posted 2 years agoThank you!
As a possible shortcut for the GIFs, you can restore the "View Image Info" command to the right-click context menu by toggling "browser.menu.showViewImageInfo" from false to true in about:config (see https://support.mozilla.org/kb/about-config-editor-firefox for more on about:config).
