500NewTabs

New tab with images from 500px.com

This open source extension shows awesome images in every new tab you will open from 500px. Features: - One out of 10 cached image is shown as new tab background image - A new image will be downloaded from 500px if the image cache is older than x minutes (configurable update interval) - Images are provided by my gallery or discovery mode - Your name can be defined in options page - Greetings can be hidden to have an even more clean UI - Force cache update in options page - Images in cache are only updated if new images are available - Link to 500px.com to support the photographer Here is a comparison with other extensions. Moment: - closed source - many features and backend requests I don't need - many more pictures - payed mode Google default page: - many nice pictures - overloaded (including search field I don't use) Many other 500px extensions: - none of them is working (for me) - original extension is very slow (when loading the pictures with big watermark) Disclaimer: This extension is not affiliated nor sponsored by 500px.com. Thus it might break at any time.
