Image Direct

Image Direct is meant to come as a response towards Google's recent decision to remove the "Direct View" button from the Google Images interface.

The button formerly functioned as a direct link to the image in question, allowing users to bypass the hosting web site itself. Now, due to the disappearance of the button, users will have to click and visit the hosting site to view the image, which may or may not have a downloadable edition (or a large enough size).

Since the add-on's purpose is a simple one, it has next-to-no effect on Mozilla Firefox's overall performance, so you don't have to worry about lagging when browsing.

Unfortunately, it seems sometimes to make some of the other buttons disappear, such as the "Share" or "View Saved" button. One solution to this problem would be to occasionally refresh the current tab.

One thing worth mentioning is that the button added by the extension isn't currently translated in any other language than English, so regardless of the region the browser classifies you as, the button will still display "Direct Image Link".
