Oogle

Improves Google's image search results by highlighting the found image in its page.

A Chrome extension to locate and highlight image search results in their original page. The highlight can be configured via the Options page (which can be accessed by clicking the eyes in the omnibar when you've searched for some images). It can also permanently revert Google's image search behaviour back to how it used to work with results displayed on multiple pages. Note: Finding the image in the page does not work 100% of the time. I hope to improve this in subsequent versions. Occasionally the shadow highlight can't be displayed or is only partially displayed. Unfortunately this is beyond my capability to fix!

Version 0.5: - new options page - click the icon in the omnibar (when you're in an image search page) - image can be highlighted in the page with a shadow - highlight and scroll with the new style search results as well as the old style Version 0.4: - Fixes a failure with unexpected url format (thanks Gary!). - Brings image into view on visit. Version 0.3: - Now also works when switching search 'types' from the left hand menu. Version 0.2: - Now closes the lightbox automatically without resorting to using google.fr.
