ImagePref

A Firefox extension

ImagePref is a free Firefox addon. It adds a small checkbox in the right corner of the statusbar of Firefox at the bottom of the screen. Using this checkbox, you can switch between images on and images off. This addon helps you to control easily whether or not images are loaded. In addition, it contains extra features to make browsing with images switched off more easy.

ImagePref features:

  • Show or hide images using a status bar button.
  • Right-click on an image and select "Load Image" to load a particular image.
  • Compatible with Firefox 3.
ImagePref is freeware.
