Hover Free GOLD!

Enlarge thumbnails on mouse over. Works on many sites and is totally free from shady updates, ads or 3rd party tracking.Fork of Hover Free, which was a fork of hoverzoom.net -- this Chrome extension will show an image if you hover its thumbnail or a link.

Unfortunately, Ralph Tice decided to stop further development of Hover Free. I really wanted purple links visited via Hover Free to sync across computers, and got the crazy idea that I could implement it myself:

Philosophy:
HoverFree GOLD! will be free to use and help people preview a linked image.

HoverFree GOLD! will never inject advertising, referral links, adware, spyware, etc.

HoverFree GOLD! will never track or record browsing activity without you specifically telling it to (i.e. Reddit Gold visited links work by submitting a POST request to the Reddit API, telling it you visited a link. To get this functionality, you have to explicitly enable it in the options. Default setting is off.)

HoverFree GOLD! source and change history will always be visible on github, for maximum transparency into any updates or modifications.
