Here’s a list of 5 Imgur extensions for Google Chrome. For those who aren’t familiar with Imgur, it’s a very popular image hosting site, with a very active community of users who are constantly contributing new images. Some of the more skilled Imgur users have created Chrome extensions to help find, browse, upload and manage images hosted on Imgur more easily.
This list covers some of the more interesting ones that I came across.
Imgur Extension by Metronomik
Imgur Extension by Metronomik is an all-around Imgur extension for Chrome with the help of which you can screenshot web pages and upload created screenshots directly to Imgur or re-upload images from websites to Imgur, in just 2 clicks.
All the controls can be accessed from the right-click context menu. Right-click on an empty space shows you the screenshot tool options (screenshot entire screen, current view or selection) and right click on an image shows the option to re-upload selected image to Imgur.

Imgur Uploader
Imgur Uploader is exactly what its name says that it is, Imgur upload extension for Chrome with the help of which you can easily copy any image from around the web to Imgur.
By copying, I’m of course talking about re-uploading to Imgur. To do that just right click on an image and select the Upload to Imgur option. Upload starts automatically and when it finishes re-uploaded image opens up in a new tab. Images hosted on Imgur can also be re-uploaded using Imgur Uploader.

Imgur Album Horizontal Layout
Imgur Album Horizontal Layout will make horizontal layout the default Imgur gallery layout. Horizontal layout is where thumbnails of all images in the gallery are showed at the top, and down below images from the gallery are showed one by one.
Normally Imgur shows whichever layout the gallery creator selected. With this extension galleries are always showed horizontally.

Imgur Gallery Notifier
Imgur Gallery Notifier serves as 2 things. First it will give you quick access to the 16 most popular images of the day.
Secondly it can be used as a notifier when someone replies to your comments or sends you a message. If that happens you’ll see the dot on “i” on the extension icon change color from green to red. Click on the extension icon with the notification active takes you to the posted comment or inbox, depending on what kind of notification it was.
