More About Decreased Productivity

Decreased Productivity (DP) creates a more "consistent" browsing experience (for you and others around you) by letting you control what you want to see ("stealth browsing" => text/page background colours, the cloaking of images, hiding page favicons, changing fonts, etc.). You can choose what style you want (e.g. green text on a black background) by going to the Options page (right-click on icon in address bar and click on "Options"). DP has tab-specific support and domain whitelisting/blacklisting!

Supports Arabic, German, English (US), English (British), Spanish, Tagalog, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamese, Chinese (Simplified), and Chinese (Traditional)!

Please note that I am not responsible for what you do with this extension and any subsequent consequences; please browse responsibly.

Changelog:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Español and Japanese locales updated (thank you Luciano and Yamaji for translating!)
-fixed minor locale issue in the Options page (thanks Yamaji)

v0.46.33 - Wednesday, August 10, 2011
-you can now set how transparent images are! (unhovered and hovered; live example provided in the Options page)
-added keyboard shortcut (CTRL+F12) to toggle the cloaking of pages! (enabled by default; you can disable this in the Options page)
-fixed possible memory leak (and intermittent browser crash (?)) (related to the page title cloaking function and an infinite loop)
-minor updates to the Español locale (thanks Luciano)
-updated coffee-buyer list :)

v0.46.31-0.46.32 - Tuesday, August 9, 2011
-made blacklist/whitelists easier to read
-added option to unbold text
-added Monospace and Serif font options
-(and updated coffee-buyer list :))

v0.46.29-v0.46.30 - Monday, August 1, 2011
-optimized code (refactored to leverage jQuery for content scripting)
-added functions to make cloaking more reliable and miss less elements (div, links, spans, and page titles (Facebook would update its title periodically and "undo" the title cloaking... not anymore!))
-made "Enable Stickiness" disabled by default for fresh installs (Stickiness: new tabs from cloaked pages are cloaked)
-updated coffee-buyer list :)

v0.46.27-v0.46.28 - Thursday, July 28, 2011
-added "catch-all" code to ensure all link colors are changed (if DP is enabled)
-added "White - Green" color preset
-updated the German locale (thanks Christoph!)
-updated locale files to be easier to translate

v0.46.21-v0.46.26 - Wednesday, July 27, 2011
-added option to always show images that are within a specified dimension (width x height in pixels). By default, this is disabled (0 x 0px).
-updated behaviour to be more logical; now DP won't be automatically enabled on all sites once a blacklisted site is visited while in global mode
-updated options page to be more intuitive (glorious lines! (aka borders))
-changed default font to Arial from Calibri (reasoning: Arial is older than Calibri and more likely to be on more systems). If Arial doesn't exist on the system, a sans-serif font will be used.

-added "Enable Stickiness" option, where you can control whether or not tabs opened from a cloaked page are cloaked as well! (enabled by default)
-added "Show Update Popup" option, where you can control whether or not you see the page that popups in the background with a list of what's new each time you are updated to a newer version of DP! (enabled by default)

-updated to support dark backgrounds (remove flicker upon page load) (v0.46.7)
-further improved initial cloaking speed

v0.45 - Sunday, December 5, 2010
-fixed minor bugs (CSS; reported Battle.net bug)
-now initially hides all elements until page is loaded, where it then cloaks the page (there's still a slight flicker, but it should be substantially improved now)
--I tried to change the default white background to match the chosen style, but I couldn't (so for those of you using the Black background like myself, you'll have to bear with blinding white screens between page loads :()
-added names of more generous donors to Options page :)

v0.43-v0.44 - Saturday, October 23, 2010
-v0.43: fixed bug where closing a new tab would uncloak a previously cloaked tab

v0.36 - Sunday, October 17, 2010
-added option to "Show Context Menu"
-changes made in the Options page now take effect immediately to all tabs
