craigslist inline
This is a greasemonkey script to preview craigslist images inline. So instead of going to a listing to see images, you can preview them inline. It's quite useful when browing real estate.
Version 0.9 fixes a bug where the script stopped working altogether and the images didn't show up. They now show up now. Also, The problem from 0.8 popped up again, but it's fixed.
Version 0.8 fixes a bug
noted here.
Version 0.7 fixes a bug a
faithful user pointed out to me today that made the first screen
look something like this:
Version 0.6 allows you to limit the number of images you see.
Version 0.5 allows you to keep the aspect ratio of the images, rather than making them square. Someone wanted this.
Version 0.4 allows you to change the size of images.
Version 0.3 uses just javascript so loads faster.
In case you're worried about privacy, here is the PHP source that goes to the javascript source.
This now works for all listings, not just real estate.
In its current form you need to be running greasemonkey on firefox. If you know how to install these, here is the script.
Usage
Once installed, here's how you use this thing.
-
Whenever you
visit craigslist the images
for listing will have previews underneath the listing so you
don't have to visit every listing. Here is an example of with
and without (so after and before).
With
Without
-
You can change the size of the images that show up with the
select box in the upper right, and also choose to keep the
aspect ratio if you want. When unchecked the images will appear
square; when checked they will all have the same height, but
possibly different widths.
Checked
Unchecked
Installation
To use you must be running greasemonkey on firefox. So, I'll mention both.
- Install firefox.
- Install greasemonkey.
- Go to the link craigslist.user.js a click the Install button in the upper right. If you don'tER see this button you haven't installe5 keep the aspect ratio of the images, rather than making them square. Someone wanted this.
- Go to the link craigslist.user.js a click the Install button in the upper right. If you don't see this button you haven't installed greasemonkey correctly -- in which case return to step #2.
