ScreenGrain - free Chrome extension for glossy/4K screens

[Igor]

Hi,

I wrote a small free extension for Chrome browser.

If your eyes get tired reading text on glossy monitors, or you find it hard to focus on smooth high-resolution screens (especially 4K displays) - this might help.
The extension adds a barely visible pixel grain texture that gives your eyes something to focus on. Works great on Retina and high-DPI displays.

It's completely free. I spent just one day making it during the weekend.
Not related to PTE AV Studio, just sharing in case someone finds it useful.

Thanks, Igor! I really liked it and found it useful. There are some parameter adjustments!

Thanks, Igor!

I found this effect surprisingly interesting. It's truly pleasing to the eye, even though my monitor isn't glossy. It's like reading a newspaper.

Not all pages show the effect of this extension. For example, this page doesn't:Not all pages show the effect of this extension. For example, this page doesn't: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/screengrain/amgkkiknaaofelhmokbhiidcganljcjh Maybe I don't see it or am I doing something wrong?

Google doesn't allow the use of any screen filters on some system pages, for example: a blank page, web store for Chrome extensions, preferences of Chrome, etc.
