Hi—I built that extension! Thank you for using it. You can view the source code here:

https://github.com/mrcoles/full-page-screen-capture-chrome-e...

It’s malware & spyware free. I built the extension to take a screen cap of a seating chart that I built as a web page for my wedding—since all the other extensions at the time were broken. Why a web page for my seating chart? IDK, I wanted to play with CSS3 columns, alas I should have used photoshop…

I have been contacted by people who want to buy the extension, but it seems too dangerous, since they could easily install their own malware—I wonder if anything like this happened to “Awesome Screenshot”? My own conscience and, more importantly, my personal brand is too important to me to sell it.

In terms of the permissions, when I built it, I had to ask for those permissions in order to make it work. If you find any changes to chrome permissions that let me ask for fewer, please let me know or, better, submit a pull request.

Also, instead of PhantomJS, if you have a Mac, try out `webkit2png`, which works great as long as you don't need to login or interact with a page before the screenshot:

actually, I’ll try out the activeTab permission… hopefully that will work. It’s hard to find time to maintain a side-project :)

huzzah, the `activeTab` permission removes the request for all those gross permissions! Try it now, I release v0.0.12
