Craigslist Image Previewer from Craigs Toolbox

2008-05-27-climagepreview.jpgRemember Listpic? It was great, so nice to see the photos from the Craigslist ads without having to click through - but alas, it didn't last long. The good news for today is that we just downloaded a free image previewer and it's fantastic...

 
 

...taking a total of about 20 seconds to install and working like a charm.

It is the Image Preview Extension for Firefox from CraigsToolbox.com for Firefox. It allows you to view a thumbnail of the listings images without clicking on each ad. This will definitely make doing the daily Scavenger even more enjoyable...

All info is here.

There's a site, www.ghettofilter.com, that does this same thing or at least will be soon. As of now it is Los Angeles, Phoenix and Portland only, as well as being Firefox only.

Try out the free version, but don't give this company any money. For two reasons:

1) they won't send you the code, then will ignore four emails until you threaten to dispute the charge, then they will promise you a quick refund, and then ignore you some more. In other words, this appears to be a SCAM.

2) there is a free Firefox extension that does exactly the same thing, but faster. and FREE. Oh yeah, and it's free. It runs on Greasemonkey.
