Unfortunately it appears to do this by sending all the content back to a server which does the work. Privacy? Not even a privacy statement.

Thanks for the feedback dsr_!

All data is anonymous. What's posted back is some URLs. Individual books can be requested with an email.

I do agree this be more secure though. I'll look for ways of encrypting things and add a privacy statement. Any other suggestions for what would make you more comfortable are welcome.

Thanks again!

I like it. But today I got the message that the chrome has disabled it and that I should contact you and ask for extension to be published in the chrome web store.

Hope that helps!

Oh wow! That's the second person who's said that.

I didn't realize Chrome would do that...I've been using the files without issue.

I'll publish it before the end of the week to avoid this problem continuing! Thanks for the feedback!

How is it going with photos? I see smaller ones are inserted, bigger not. Perhaps implement photo resizing?

Photos should be working. Once the content is extracted the DOM is scanned for images to be downloaded. Images are then size to be 100% width of the screen.

It's looked fine for all the sites, I've used but results can really vary depending where the content comes from.

If you find any sites that aren't displaying correctly, send the urls to [email protected] and I'll happily dig a little deeper.

Thanks for the feedback!
