Notes and Attributions

  • Random Sloth mode is NOT currently random. It currently appends the first several images found of sloths on Flickr.
    • The code to do this is currently taken from a Chrome extension tutorial and is found in popup.js, distributed through a BSD-style license:
    • It is Copyright (c) 2012 The Chromium Authors. All rights reserved. It may not be redistributed for commercial purposes.
    • It is just placeholder code while I work on my own script.
  • All images of sloths are used under the Creative Commons license and culled from Flickr. Out of courtesy, I am currently compiling a list of attributions.
  • Certain elements were recreated with the help of online tutorials.
