This extension allows you to stop annoying gifs in the current pageChrome extension which tries to pause the gifs that nag you. I found it useful when I am reading a document which contains some funny GIFs. By the way, authors: what about not using gifs inside a documents which is supposed to be read?
To pause the GIF(s) you can use one of these options:
- Use the contextual menu on a gif and select "Pause animation"
- Use the contextual menu anywhere in the page except on a gif a select "Pause all animations"
- Press the esc key and then click on the target GIF
- Press the esc key _twice_ to pause all GIFs in the document
Click on a paused gif to un-pause the animation.
The extension is open source and you can get it on Github (star it, if you like it!) https://github.com/claudioc/gifnope
