This extension adds a 'View background image' option to context menus.
Adds a "View background image" option to your context menus, and cross-hair action to your extension bar.
If a single image is found at the location, it will open in a new tab.
If multiple images are found, either on different elements at the same point or on a single element - a UI will be shown allowing you to select your intended image.
Picks up background images and any elements with a "src" attribute (i.e. img) - for when media is placed below other opaque elements.
If you encounter any issues (e.g. false "Image not found" messages), please leave a response in the "Support" tab, with the page URL and info regarding where/what you've selected.

I've used this a lot over the last couple years. Works well every time -- thank you for creating this!

Works great for what I needed it for. Thanks for making this!
It works as it says. Note: remember to refresh the page if you just installed the extension
It is what I was looking for. Great job.
Excellent! Works as it should to get the job done.
Fantastic extension! Great time saver.
Doesn't do anything. Correction: right-click context menu button does absolutely nothing. Extension bar button works as advertised so far, including the multiple image selection UI.
I've not found an occasion for the image choosing menu to activate yet, but so far, this extension has made it much simpler to access background images. Before I installed this extension, my method was to inspect the element with the background image and look for the image URL in the CSS information. Not difficult, but an annoyance.
after trying for a number of weeks, works better that the rest

Nothing happens.
Works well! So few people use it, to...

It's a great extension, really saves a lot of time, compared with having to manually find the background in the source.
Excellent, works better than the Firefox version!!!
