I understand that it's already possible to change the context menu for firefox with about:config.
Having both buttons "open in new tab" and "view image" Is really handy if you like doing both here and there.

Does exactly what it says, useful after FF devs decided to remove this function

Great addon that I've been using very often ever since they removed this feature.

Funny how the little things can easily become the most annoying as Mozilla go on with their slow but steady mission to ruin their own browser by removing useful stuff such as the regular "view image" which Firefox had and worked fine for 20 years. Add-ons such as this one to the rescue (of Mozilla...)!

Does exactly what it's supposed to without issue.

This restores the extension that Firefox removed only that it should be open source for security reasons

Mandatory for all installs. Shame on you Mozilla for breaking this feature!

Why the heck would you add a screenshot.png in your addon xpi that is 650 kB in size, making this addon over 20x the size it actually should be.

An extension that runs on all tabs should be open source.
One thing I'm missing from old firefox, can you add config to allow us to change the menu entry to "View Image (filename)" for example: "View Image (background.png)"?

Excellent, I don't know what prompted the change, but I quite like the old behaviour, which this add-on restores.

Thank you. I searched a lot, found this working good.

Does a good job of replacing what is now missing.

I do have one suggestion. It would be beneficial to me at least if you were able to switch the shortcuts around. I mostly use this to open images I'm not ready to be the focus tab, and while i can do that, I would rather make it just a middle click, or just shift etc. instead of ctrl + shift.

This restores my work flow since Mozilla decided they wanted to be MacOS. A review above mine complains that the item is listed toward the bottom of the context menu and not up top with other view-related tasks. That bothered me for about an hour and now, it's just there and I'm used to it.

If opening images int he same tab is important to you, as it is to me, this solves a problem that Mozilla created.

It adds the context menu item back, but adds it at the bottom of the context menu, not up in the same group as the other image-related context menu items (such as copy image and save image as). I almost didn't even see the button as a result, and as a result I almost gave a 1-star review for it failing to even add the context menu item back. Then I looked at the screenshot here that shows that the menu item was added, but just on the bottom, and I verified that to be the case. But yeah, not having it up with the other image related context menu items is a HUGE mistake on the part of the designer of this extension. It absolutely SHOULD be up with the other image-related context menu items. This could easily be a 5-star extension, but I had to take away 2 stars for the massively terrible technique it uses by adding this context menu item at the bottom of the context menu, instead of inserting it in the group of other image-related context menu items. Until this problem is fixed, I'm giving this extension only 3 stars.
