Install ​

DL Image Tools has been submitted to the Chrome Web Store and to Firefox Add-ons (addons.mozilla.org). The store listings were still in review when this page was written. If you find DL Image Tools by DhivaLabs in your browser's store, install it from there. Otherwise, install it from the files on the latest GitHub release, as described below.

What you need ​

  • Chrome 110 or later, or another Chromium browser such as Edge or Brave.
  • Or Firefox 140 or later.

Chrome, Edge and Brave ​

  1. Download dl-image-tools-v1.0.1.zip from the latest release and unzip it into a folder you will keep.

    The browser loads the extension from this folder every time it starts, so do not delete or move it.

  2. Open chrome://extensions in the address bar.

  3. Turn on Developer mode (the switch at the top right).

  4. Select Load unpacked and choose the unzipped folder.

  5. Select the puzzle-piece icon in the toolbar and pin DL Image Tools, so its icon is always visible.

Good to know

In Edge the extensions page is edge://extensions, and in Brave it is brave://extensions.

Firefox ​

Until the Firefox Add-ons listing is live, you can try the extension as a temporary add-on:

  1. Download dl-image-tools-firefox-v1.0.1.zip from the latest release. Do not unzip it.

  2. Open about:debugging in the address bar.

  3. Select This Firefox.

  4. Select Load Temporary Add-on and choose the zip file.

Firefox removes temporary add-ons when it closes, so you repeat these steps after each restart.

Check the download ​

The release notes list a SHA-256 checksum for each zip. To check yours on Linux or macOS:

bash
sha256sum dl-image-tools-v1.0.1.zip

Compare the result with the value in the release notes.

Permissions ​

The extension asks for three permissions:

PermissionWhy

It asks for no access to the websites you visit.
