It’s strange that Google Chrome doesn’t let you view image properties easily. Just the other day I was trying to see an image properties and, to my annoyance, I couldn’t do it.
The View Image Info (properties) extension lets you do just that. It lets you easily see an image size, URL and more through right click menu.
Get properties(including dimensions, URL, file size, file type info) of the image your cursor is pointing to via context menu.

It happens very often that Google Chrome doesn’t prompt to save passwords, and eventually doesn’t remember the password when you revisit the login page. For example Facebook.
It can be annoying if you switched from Firefox because it remembered all passwords.
There are two methods to get around this.
1) Use the Autocomplete = on addon.
Are there some websites where the browser never prompts to remember your password? It might not be the browser’s fault — it could be the webpage telling the browser not to save the password. If you don’t like having to remember these or write them down, you can use this extension to allow the browser to save the password.

2) If it doesn’t work, visit the login page using Firefox and enter your username and password. Firefox will save it. Now import Firefox passwords into Chrome.
Next time you visit the site using Google Chrome, It’ll remember the password and auto fill it for you.

Update: Greasemetal development has stopped since the new version of Google Chrome supports user scripts by default.
Chromium and Google Chrome (version 4 and higher) have built-in support for Greasemonkey-style user scripts.
To use, click on any .user.js file. You should see an install dialog. Press OK to install.
Known issues:
Chromium does not support @require, @resource, unsafeWindow, GM_registerMenuCommand, GM_setValue, or GM_getValue.
GM_xmlhttpRequest is same-origin only.

What is Greasemetal?
How does it Work?
Google Chrome does not provide any interface to develop browser addons. Greasemetal modifies the behaviour of Google Chrome using an inter-process communication channel called AutomationProxy, which is used for automatically testing the functions of the web browser.
Using Greasemetal
To start using Greasemetal, download and execute the installer.
After installation, launch Greasemetal from the start menu. Greasemetal will in turn start up Google Chrome, while hooking its behaviours to insert userscripts.
Once you have started running Greasemetal, add userscripts to the
userjs directory under your
My Documents folder (or
Documents folder on Windows Visa). If you are unfamiliar with userscripts, a number of scripts are available from
userscripts.org.
