  **The most powerful image collection tool for your browser**
  
  Excolet Image Clipper is a professional-grade Chrome extension designed for anyone who works with images on the web — designers, researchers, content creators, journalists, marketers, archivists, students, and creative professionals. Stop right-clicking and "Save As" one image at a time. Excolet scans the entire page, finds every image in seconds, and gives you the tools to collect, edit, and organize them exactly how you want.

  ### WHAT IT DOES
  
  **Discover Every Image on the Page**
  With a single click, Excolet scans the entire webpage and presents every image in a clean, organized grid. No more hunting through source code or scrolling endlessly — every photo, icon, background, and asset is surfaced instantly. The extension intelligently discovers high-resolution versions of images by parsing srcset attributes, stripping CDN size parameters, and checking Open Graph and Twitter Card metadata so you always get the best quality available.
  
  **Collect Images Your Way**
  Choose between a responsive grid view or a detailed list view. Sort images by file size to prioritize the highest quality assets. Use one-click selection or multi-select to batch-download entire sets of images at once. A built-in size filter lets you ignore tiny icons and focus on meaningful visuals.
  
  **Clip Mode — Visual Selection**
  Activate Clip Mode to draw a selection directly on the webpage. The scissor tool highlights the exact area you want to capture, perfect for screenshots of specific sections, UI elements, or cropped visual references. Your selection is instantly saved with no extra steps.
  
  **Hover to Save**
  Enable the optional hover toolbar to speed up your workflow even further. Simply hover over any image on any webpage to reveal quick-save, quick-edit, and hide buttons — ideal for rapid collection sessions where you want to grab dozens of images without ever opening the extension popup.
  
  **Built-in Image Editor**
  No need to open Photoshop. Excolet includes a full-featured image editor powered by Filerobot, right inside the extension. Crop, resize, annotate with shapes and arrows, add text overlays, draw freehand, rotate, flip, and adjust brightness and contrast. Apply filters, add watermarks, and fine-tune every detail before saving. All edits are non-destructive — you can always go back and adjust.
  
  **Smart Auto-Naming**
  Tired of generic filenames like "download.jpg"? Excolet automatically generates meaningful names based on the page title, image alt text, and URL structure. Add a custom prefix and the extension will name your files intelligently so your downloads folder stays organized without any manual renaming.
  
  **Metadata Viewer**
  For photographers and researchers who need technical details, the built-in metadata viewer extracts and displays EXIF data from images — camera model, lens, ISO, shutter speed, GPS coordinates, dimensions, file size, and more. Export the full metadata as JSON for cataloging or documentation purposes.
  
  **Side Panel Mode**
  On Chromium browsers that support it, open Excolet as a persistent side panel that stays visible while you browse. As you switch between tabs, the panel automatically refreshes to show images from the active page — perfect for research sessions where you are gathering references across multiple websites. The panel auto-detects navigation changes so you never have to manually rescan.
  
  **Privacy-First, Local-Only**
  Everything happens in your browser. No images are uploaded to any server. No tracking. No account required. Your data stays on your machine. Excolet only activates on pages where you explicitly open it.

  ### WHO IS IT FOR?
  
  **Graphic Designers & Art Directors**
  Collect mood boards, reference images, texture packs, and UI inspiration from Dribbble, Behance, Pinterest, and design blogs. Use the metadata viewer to inspect the technical specs of photographs you want to emulate. Batch-download entire sets of assets for your next project.
  
  **Content Creators & Social Media Managers**
  Gather images for blog posts, social media campaigns, and video thumbnails. Use the built-in editor to crop to the perfect aspect ratio, add text overlays, and apply filters before uploading. The auto-naming feature keeps your content library organized.
  
  **Researchers & Journalists**
  Document web pages with screenshots and image evidence. Use Clip Mode to capture specific sections of articles, charts, or data visualizations. The side panel mode is ideal for cross-referencing sources and collecting visual evidence across multiple publications.
  
  **Students & Educators**
  Collect diagrams, infographics, and educational illustrations for presentations and reports. The hover-to-save feature makes gathering reference material fast and frictionless during research sessions.
  
  **E-Commerce Professionals**
  Extract product images from competitor sites, supplier pages, or marketplaces for analysis and comparison. Sort by file size to quickly identify the highest-quality product shots.
  
  **Web Developers & QA Engineers**
  Audit websites for image optimization issues. Inspect metadata, compare file sizes, and verify that high-resolution assets are being served. Capture screenshots of bugs and UI glitches with Clip Mode.
  
  **Photography Enthusiasts**
