Artstation Discover
Description from store

ArtStation Discover enables art lovers to discover amazing new artwork while browsing. Simply open a new tab and it will load a random pick from ArtStation.com. Set which medium & subject matter to pull from. Like artworks and follow artists.

v1.2.6 released
===========
Added support for new mediums and subject matter.

NEW IN 1.2 - HISTORY AND LIKE/FOLLOW
===============================
You now have a history of all the works that have shown! Just click the history button and navigate back to what you've seen. Super useful for those situations when you see a fantastic artwork but the website you're browsing to loads. :)

You can also now Like artworks from within the extension, and Follow artists too. Just sign in to ArtStation at https://www.artstation.com, and when you load the extension, you'll see the Like and Follow buttons.

We've also improved the UI for when you're offline.

SETTINGS
========
Click the gear icon on the bottom left of the screen.
* Set which medium and subject matter to pull from.
* Set Autoplay - which automatically fetches a new image every 5 seconds (configurable).

Notes
====
If you are using the default Chrome home page which shows the bookmarks bar at the top of the page, you may find that using ArtStation Discover takes over the chrome home page and therefore your bookmarks bar doesn't show anymore. To always show your bookmark bar, you need to set chrome to always show it:

On Windows, go to your bookmarks settings and turn on "Show Bookmarks Bar". Ctrl + Shift + B
On Mac click "View > Always Show Bookmark Bar". Command + Shift + B

This is an excellent option for a new page on chrome. However people may want to switch back to the default chrome page temporarily, so I have a feature request... Add a "toggle on/off" option in the right click menu of the extension icon. When the option is clicked on it will revert to the default chrome window without removing the Artstation icon from the chrome extension toolbar. In addition there could be additional options for this button in preferences when you manage extension to change how it functions: Toggle off on the current tab only; Toggle off for 5/10/30 minutes; Toggle off for 1/6/12/24 hours; Toggle off until toggled on again.

For what it does it works well, but I tend to go to a new tab for the quick sites so had to remove it again, a shame, if it worked more s a background or even lead image with sites\news to the right I'd have loved it.

Divith 2023-07-26

Really Like it and works like a charm.

David E 2023-07-24

Every new tab now is Artstation artworks. Thats cool and all but, ur app restrictes users from accessing their saved tabs. You audience are artists, we have tons of saved tabs. Kinda bad desing actually....

Askar Mukhanov 2023-04-15

Filters doesnt work. Fix it please.

Wout Courtin 2022-04-27

works really wel

Алёна Алышева 2022-04-19

Great app! But I had to remove it because I miss the shortcuts on the home screen and the login button to the mailbox. Maybe you can combine these features with your application? Or add a choice to turn them off or not

Jeffrey Seebachan 2022-04-11

Still a favorite extension after a few years. Has some nice features including like/follow buttons directly in the tab, history, media/subject filtering. Would like to see some things added but particularly features found on the official explore page: - Choose between random / trending / following posts -Time filtering so to only show posts from last week/month/year (instead of always seeing 3+ year old posts) - Including the simple media split between all / 2D / 3D.

希望还能够展示常用网站链接在作品之上

Nathan Lama 2021-11-09

It's an incredible extension, definitely one of my favourites. I'd just appreciate if there was a way to "censor" some of the content. I often have cliché arts of women with sexualized bodies appearing when I open a new tab, which can be very inconvenient at work.

Zhimeng Zhao 2021-10-07

你们这个拓展好啊,填补了我“打开新标签页”到“转入目标页面”之间的视觉空白;当然这一空白也可以由edge浏览器的新建标签页壁纸填补,但相比之下,后者的图片清晰度略差。

Luiz Carlos 2021-07-11

The best extension art for sure. Need suporte for opera gx

Keir Williams 2021-06-02

Just needs 3 things to be perfect: -artwork pre-loading -the option to select multiple categories -keyboard shortcuts

Mateus Costa 2021-05-03

Awesome, I love it. And I have a Suggest, I would love to be able to save by the new tab.

Otávio Gabriel 2021-04-14

this is awesome, but i can't use in opera :(

Badjano 2021-04-04

only 2 things missing: - open source the code for the extension - support keyboard arrows to navigate

Chun Yen Lee 2021-01-14

Maybe can do like Muzli 2, have few artworks in a page

Robinson Donizete de Carvalho 2020-12-28

It needs better filters, and also some shortcuts, like the arrow key to switch images. Is this code open source? I could do some chances and would be nice

Christopher Roelofse 2020-12-09

I like it a lot, But what would be cool is if you made a setting where you can choose to have your chrome overlay over the artwork. So in other words the search bar in the middle of the screen with all your quick access links below that as per usual. Maybe the setting exists and I just don't know how to activate it ?

Valentine K 2020-11-19

Using this extension more that a year, can't imagine chrome without it :D

Mark Lloyd Bastasa 2020-11-14

I like it... but there should be a fix. The 'like' and 'share' button always disappears.

Kai F 2020-10-16

Wish: - Let me see only the artwork I liked. I know this defeats the "discover" purpose but I discover by browsing ArtStation and I just collect stuff I never look at again. I'd like to get inspired by the stuff I liked on every new tab. When I get bored, I'd be encouraged to browse ArtStation again to fill my like-collection with new stuff. Feedback: - Images don't load instantly, please preload them in the background. - You cannot filter out NSFW stuff, please add a checkbox for that, would be useful - at work.

Efren Rodriguez 2020-09-23

This is great! It would be nice to be able to have some bookmarks on this homepage however. Is there anyway to set something similar up as my desktop wallpaper, or even phone/tablet wallpaper? Is there any way to download these curated images to set that up?

Evan Webb 2020-09-11

Wish it could cycle my notifications, or multiple categories. In general nice on 3rd monitor to keep the work mood creative.

Chimi 2020-04-11

I love it <3

Edir 2019-11-26

Awesome extension! I'd like to make a suggestion. if Chrome lets you save the image to cache them, you could pre-load the images to fast show them on the next new tab instead of wait to load after you open a new tab. If you can save images on the browser, you can show last saved images and load more to show them on the next opened tab and so on.

GuiLherme Henrique901938373 2019-11-04

I would like to see my shortcuts and search toolbar as well...

DosU 2019-10-15

it was working nice , but after it stucks on the load. What can i do. Help me

Amber Jobbitt 2019-10-10

Was working fine but now I cant like or follow using this way. Keeps coming up with a error message when I go to like or follow. Tried uninstalling and login out and back in and still nothing.

Arkaus 2019-09-24

Its definitely what I was looking for but it desperately needs a way to turn it off when not using it.

Jose Luis Arteche 2019-08-22

I like it a lot, allows you to have random inspiration without thinking too much :)

Life Glazing 2019-08-19

Good

Lucas Rezende 2019-08-09

It is great to be able to see amazing artwork on my new tab window but I wish there was an option to show my search bar and shortcuts too so it doesn´t take away the utility from the new tab window.

Nomore TALK 2019-08-02

beautiful, very nice & inspirational; personal suggestion : - I' d prefer to keep my original "new tab" in my browser, and access the slideshow in an other way than 'new tab' (could be annoying to not have a 'normal' "new tab") so for instance, let use the Artstation button to open a new page with the slideshow. the goal is to choose when we want to start the slide show and not every time we open a new tab; hope it makes sens. thank you

avtandil kalandadze 2019-07-14

Love It

Carl Creates 2019-06-12

Great way to find inspiration!

Tyrone Minnie 2019-05-20

This would be an amazing extention, if it worked like a GOOGLE THEME, where your search bar is in the middle with frequented sites below as usual. Please do this, create an app that more than just artists will appreciate.

Alex Zloy 2019-04-12

great inspiration tool

pauzak 2019-04-04

Needs arrow keys assigned to go forward / backward and the UI navigation arrows dissapear annoyingly (u need to move mouse to continue clicking f/b every time). not convenient for browsing. Other than that it's amazing. Love it.

Jacky Xu 2019-04-04

Missing a bookmark bar option, otherwise it's great!

Admiral Awesome 2019-03-14

Rewelacyjna sprawa! Kiedy się trafia na content, który nas ucieszy. :)

Tom 2019-03-07

removes access to most used tabs

Evgeny Grigoryev 2019-02-08

Great extension. But when I like, sometimes there is an error "Sorry we couldn't complete this action because of an error"

Laura Borgen 2019-01-13

Great extension. Adding the like or follow button might be nice, but could also clutter the wonderfulness of opening a tab to see artwork (maybe keep it optional). It's nice that you can specify the categories you want to see too.

Kalenarku 2019-01-06

100% perfect!

jean-batiste 2018-12-31

I would use it if i could see my bookmarks bar

Hưng Hà Duy 2018-12-19

I love it! But it take too long time to load an artwork everytime !

Chris Yearn 2018-12-19

This is a neat idea, but I miss the functionality of the regular New Tab page in Chrome, so will be uninstalling. If this extension simply changed the background image but retained the functionality of the regular New Tab page (bookmarks bar visible, frequently visited sites icons, active omnibar/google search bar) I would use it in a heartbeat.

Anonymous 2018-12-13

This is awesome, glad you guys made this extension, it's a great way to animate your chrome interface and discover new talented and awesome artists !

Wesley Andrade de Borba 2018-11-12

Wonderful app, very inspiring. :) Should add "ADD TO COLLECTION" with the other options "Like"/"Follow".
