This is a Safari extension that I've been working on. It started as a challenge: make an extension in one night, and I ended up with this.
Currently, there are only three pages that function with the extension (unread, liked, archive).
2 things to remember:
- this is a WIP extension, as soon as I have an update that contains new features or fixes, I will submit it. I'm using an "update manifest" so when there's a new update, your browser will automatically detect it.
- this is not an attempt to redesign Instapaper itself. It is only a matter of taste because this won't please everyone; it only targets the few people who have the same taste that I have. Otherwise, I would have done it completely differently (maybe the subject of another extension, who know).
@Taylor Cohron I did not notice it, it's a pure coincidence. I called it Instafox as a portmanteau for "Instapaper" and "fox" because of the brown color, which evoked a fox in my mind. Thank you fur using it ;)
@Loubna Aggoun Oh that does make sense. I guess I just associate the term fox with Firefox after using it for years. Thankfully, I switched over to Safari, 5.2 is perfect. Again, great work!

I love the look, though I am confused on the name, why is it called Instafox if it's for Safari? Just a little curious. Still awesome work, will use.
