disable facebook photos theater gallery

016th Apr 2011Geek, , ,

I dunno about everyone else but I can’t stand the new facebook photo viewer where it uses AJAX to show you the photo in a “new window”. you aren’t able to copy the direct photo link to share with friends if the persons profile you’re linking them has their photos set to friends only.

I found this google chrome extension that disables facebooks new &theatre gallery. click to install.

the plugin basically just refreshes the page as soon as you load a photo that removes the &theatre link. that’s also an alternative that will work in any browser.. when you click on a facebook photo just remove &theatre at the end of the link and press enter.. and it will reload the photo using the old gallery so you can then get a direct link to the photo.

firefox alternatives and a few more click here
