Hey everyone!
I'm quite new here, but I already really enjoy this community! 
I'm not sure where to post this (or whether should I post it at all), but https://pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27009 - Pixelween 2020 entries topic gave me a little itch that I had to scratch. I love that you can click images to zoom them in and out so you can view all the details of the artworks. But when viewing Pixelween entries I got so tired of clicking each image that I've decided to create a tiny Google Chrome extension which does that for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8i9K5rAU9Hg - Here's a little preview of how it looks and works. I also felt that forum design could use a little bit of visual lifting, so I decided to update some styles (mostly tone down colours and enlarge typography for better readability). I thought that others might also enjoy those extra features, so I pushed the code to https://github.com/bypatryk/chrome-extension-pixel-joint-forum - GitHub so you can load it as an https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/getstarted#unpacked - unpacked extension . |

Thanks for making this, that's pretty cool! I've edited out the new-paint styles, I prefer what I'm already used to, but the global zoom buttons are super handy especially on the pixelween page! Thanks a lot for sharing this :D
