There is new extension on Google chrome extensions gallery which is based on my Eye Dropper. Dalton is targeting on color identification and colorblind accessibility. I really like placing reminders on page and identifying color by names.

Eye Dropper hits more than 32k users
Oct 28th
A couple of days ago Eye Dropper extension hits its user #32.000 according to counter on chrome extension gallery.
I wrote this extension mainly for my personal needs because of lack of something like ColorZilla for Firefox and never expected that so many people find it useful.
So… there is brand new site which will be used as source of Eye Dropper news, changelogs and better help. Also I’m thinking about some sort of easier feedback form… Most of you just wrote your problems in comment at google extension gallery but it is hard for me to reply to you and for you to check if it is already fixed. I like to hear your tips because github issue page which was dedicated to this task is rarely used.
