Overview
Convert BBC 'Your Pictures' pages into a gallery viewer with lightbox, captions, and navigation.
BBC News Scotland publishes amateur photos every week on a simple web page (e.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy9q390gynvo). It's full of beautiful views of the country, but this is a better way to view them, taking account of their different dimensions. This extension organises the photos into a new window of thumbnails. When clicked, a photo is opened into a slide view (the original caption of the photo is included and the photographer is attributed). Next/Previous and arrow-key navigation can be used to browse. To use it, go to any BBC photos page and press the extension's button. It also works on the BBC In Pictures pages https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in_pictures If the word "gallery" triggers childhood memories of BBC art programmes like Take Hart, Hartbeat, and Vision On, you might like this sister extension: BBC Slideshow 3D (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/gnmogikdbcfbbhafnoabcpplejjhfgon?utm_source=item-share-cb) Gallery icons created by Freepik - Flaticon https://www.flaticon.com/free-icons/gallery
