Start with DeviantArt.

Deviation Lens is made for DeviantArt artwork and Wix-hosted image pages. You can also enable “Find images on any page” and grant access to another site.

The extension finds files the page makes available. The source site determines which resolutions can be accessed.

A few things
worth knowing.

Before you install.

Is Deviation Lens free?

Yes. Deviation Lens is free and open source. You can inspect the code, report problems, and contribute on GitHub.

Does it work on other websites?

Enable “Find images on any page,” then grant access to the site when Chrome asks. The extension collects images available on the page; site restrictions and lazy loading can affect the results.

Will it find the original image every time?

It shows the versions available through the page and supported image URLs. An original download may be available on a deviation page, but the source site controls access and maximum resolution.

What does the alpha label mean?

Version 0.1.0-alpha.1 is an early development release. Features are still evolving, and bugs are expected. Report reproducible problems in the GitHub repository.

Does the extension send my scans to a server?

No. Scan results are processed in your browser. Size checks and downloads request files directly from their image hosts. Read the privacy policy for more details.
