Great simple layout, but the bookmarks bar is missing.
This is a really nice NTP extension. It not only gets rid of the incessant GOOGLE-IN-YOUR-FACE, but is customizeable to a high degree. Custom CSS lets you change icon background to transparent, and size of the icons can be set via the export/import function (adjust value of appIconSize in export pane, select all, copy and paste to import pane, and import). Kudos to the Dev .. this one is a keeper.
this extension is great. dont really know how this is not higher in some of the basic search terms for this type of extension. this extension really gives google chrome alot less branding, and is simple to use. i cant rate this higher than 5 stars, but if i could it would be 10 stars out of 5. great for somebody looking for a fresh coat of paint to their browser.
One of my stable extension, new tab looks much better, esp. with custom favicons. I like that you can use custom css code, favicons looks better with transparent background like this: .app { background-color: transparent; }
love it recamond get it
HOW TO ADD YOUR OWN BOOKMARKS 1. Open a NEW tab. 2. Click SETTINGS cog wheel in the bottom left. 3. Click EDIT SHORTCUTS in the middle. It will tell you to open a new tab page first............ BUT KEEP THIS PAGE OPEN. 4. Open a SECOND NEW tab page. 5. Again, Click SETTINGS cog wheel in the bottom left. 6. Again, Click EDIT SHORTCUTS in the middle. It should then let you edit the shortcuts in the middle of the new tab page. Hover over the bottom edge of the icons to delete or grab and rearrange. You can edit or add new URLs and also find an icon or just google a logo/icon and copy its image address and paste it there. Then, click the X to close the URL edit box and then CLICK SAVE button.
the aplications are the buttons on the screen
It's great and all except when I press the magnifying glass and search "example," instead of my google search, I see: redirect notice The previous page is sending you to https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/example. If you do not want to visit that page, you can return to the previous page. WHY? Please, instead of directly going to the first result of a website, just do it like a google search or something like that.
Won't let me add or remove links, so unless I'm looking to use facebook, youtube, or 9gag (!?? really?!) this thing is completely useless. Half the options radio buttons are invisible, the mouse cursor will change when you mouseover where they should be but you can't interact with them otherwise. Tried again with all my other extensions turned off, still had the same problem.
É uma extensão simples, porém, é o ideal para quem busca uma extensão que transforma a nova guia do Chrome, mas ao mesmo tempo não seja tão complexa e cheia de recursos desnecessários.
Minimalistic. Good. Awsome.
All I want to do is add a new shortcut!! I searched Github for author NOTHING! I searched this site ... NOTHING I'm removing this extension NOW!!!
Aun falta desarrollarla bien
PLEASE ADD icon size custamization and option to move them from center to side PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pleasant viewing for the eyes, nice and elegant design. IDK, why mine can't load the rss feeds
I love this extension as it is very simple and customizable. The only problem I have with this is that you cannot move the shortcuts around the whole screen. Thanks!!!
Ha. Freaking love this extension. I have 30 icons and I arranged them in a colorful way. If I docked my laptop to a monitor, the layout would auto-arrange, messing up my color scheme. I emailed Zack and within 4 hours he had a version I could install to test. It worked perfectly and then two days later this update was live. Too cool.
The good • Attactive MIT license. This means this extension is owned and supported by a friendly not-for-profit community. Instead of a for-profit corporation. And more secure because its full code is publicly available for review at https://github.com/z-------------/New-New-Tab-Page • Easy to use • Lots of options • Set background to either solid color or image • Customize new tab title text • Import or export your options • Beautiful visual design • On some computer I use this extension to set new tab to a solid black background and nothing else. Useful to extend battery life and healthier for the eyes. • Fast The bad • None so far Using • Add-on version 4.5.14 • Chromium 57.0.2987.98 Built on 8.7 • Debian 8.9 (64-bit) • GNOME
Great add-on! Best of the many "new tab" add-ons I've tried since my switch to Chrome. Simple in design and implementation but very useful and stylish. A++
It's a great tool, customization lets me have the page just how I like it!
Very nice, works pretty well and it has a very cool Design.
Best new tab extension I've used; looks great, easy to customise, goes well with Chrome and material design. The animation when clicking an icon is brilliant. Perhaps a search bar and access to Google apps could be useful but not a necessity, at least in my case.
good It would be great to keep the icon transparency instead of fill with white
where is app icon size?
Красивый, удобный, без всякого стороннего хлама
Zack Guard is my friend; in fact, he is right beside me forcing me to use his ting.
Got 12 sites configured, but that seems to be all the devs think you need. And no way to access your Chrome apps page.
12 shortcut only news feed from bbc. Could have been the replacement I was looking for
Useful and beautiful
Won't let you remove the apps it wants on the screen, and I see no way to add sites to link to. Rubbish app.
Very nice! Thanks!
Fetching the icon automatically from the extension would be a nice bonus, but this is an excellent, quick, great looking, and functional new tab extension. Very pleased with it.
nice!fast and stable!
Klasse! Beste "New Tab"-Erweiterung, die ich bisher gesehen habe.
