As you can read in the subject i`m trying out how the extension system
works and what is yet possible and what ain`t. I made my first two
projects and would be glad if someone wants to test them out.

Both extensions are ports from Firefox extensions i sometimes use.

The first one is "Show the image" which can be found here:
http://code.google.com/p/show-the-image/
It scans every page on load, extracts the largest image of the page
and if you click the button replaces the current tab with that image

The second on is "Browse images" which can be found here:
http://code.google.com/p/browse-images/
This one scans the page on load for linked images. On click it opens
every found image link in a new tab.
The original extension can do much more than the port so far, but its
a beginning. ;-)

Maybe i better use page actions for this in the future, but i haven`t
tried that til now.
I don`t know if this is the right place for this question, but does
anyone know when extensions will be able to use drop downs? In the
newest version the extension name specified in the manifest is shown
in something like that. This would be a great improvement i think.

And last but not least, there should be a separate discussion group
for extension developers.
