Noble JoJo 2025-08-22: This one dont work any longer chrome dont support it anymore sadly
CrimsonCrowess 2020-01-10: it does what I need it to do...for the most part. really disappointed that it's not more like the Firefox version, though. that one will list all marketplace options right from the drop down on the header rather than making me go to the marketplace to find these things. it will also tell me which items I own and which items are on my wishlist right from marketplace search results.

Danielle Andrews 2019-03-14: This really made coding posts so much easier to do. Yes the announcement thing has gone wonky, but that's easily disabled if it gets irritating.

Dao Ma (Yuuki) 2016-11-20: It's very irritating that everything is squished, customization is minimal and the layout customization doesn't really stay.

Katheryn James (Katt) 2016-04-30: I love it! But I would like to make the suggestion of being able to add your own emote images, or perhaps to include the tektek emotes. One of the things I loved about the tektek toolbar was that ability.

Casey M. (janyooary) 2015-09-28: is there no way to just have the regular gaia layout?? i only installed this for the post formatting, as ugly as the gaia site can be i'm not really feeling the bettergaia layout either. if this happens to already be an option, someone please let me know where at! if not, please add this. really want the post formatting but might uninstall this because no way to turn off layout changes.

Dizzy Priestley 2015-06-25: This is by far the best extension for GaiaOnline. I love basically everything about it, however, there are a couple things I think need fixing/tweaking. - Code signature box. The image and YouTube button is misaligned, making it go down into where the code is, which prevents you from being able to type at the top of the box, instead you have to start in the middle, and delete it back by using shift and highlighting - Not so much a tweak, but I personally dislike the signatures in the forum having a blue background, I think a white one would flow better overall with images. Otherwise, perfect!
CloverCoin (CloverCoin) 2015-04-28: This is the best add on! I'm an older Gaia-addict from 2004 and came back, everything was so overwhelming. With the help of BetterGaia I feel like it's really helping and simplifying everything for me. It's making my introduction back into the new gaia 10 years later a much smoother ride! Keep up the great work, I'll be donating towards it soon!

Pharaoh Misa 2015-03-21: It was absolutely perfect until a few seconds ago. The draw was excellent, the layouts, the customization that I love. Everything was good. Now it's suddenly gone. The thing just uninstalled itself and now the extension is gone. T_T

Camisha Few 2015-03-17: I've had better gaia for about 6 months now and it has worked fine. Yesterday however, I was on it and all of a sudden it uninstalled out of nowhere and I can't redownload it back! I loved it for the personal post style but now I don't have it... And my shortcuts are gone DX Fix now!
