What started as a simple idea to put random Smiskis on YouTube thumbnails turned into a surprisingly challenging project. I learned a lot about Chrome extensions, JavaScript, DOM manipulation, and debugging dynamic websites. What I accomplished Thumbnail Detection : Updated the extension to work with YouTube’s newer thumbnail structure. Smiski Overlays : Added randomized Smiskis with different sizes and positions. Dynamic Loading : Made Smiskis appear on newly loaded thumbnails while scrolling. Popup Controls : Finished the enable/disable button and persistent settings. Debugging : Spent a lot of time figuring out why the thumbnails weren’t being detected and finally got the extension working. Chrome Web Store : Completed the store listing, permissions, privacy information, and submitted Smisk-tube for review! 🚀 Final Thoughts This project was definitely more difficult than I expected for something so simple, but it was a really fun introduction to building something that other people can actually install and use. Now all that’s left is to wait for Google to review it and then I can ship this! Project: COMPLETE Chrome Web Store: Submitted Until next time :D"}, {"post_id": 59143, "ts": "2026-08-31T19:27:33Z", "hours": 1.2581, "text": "Smiski YouTube Thumbnail Takeover — Warmup Project Devlog #2 Overview I continued working on this small project. Although it looks small, the schematics behind it feel very big for me. There were a lot of ups and downs in this hour, but I think I did what I wanted to accomplish today. What I accomplished today Asset Sourcing & Processing : Downloaded new Smiski images to expand the overlay library. Renamed all source assets following the standardized s_1.png , s_2.png , s_3.png naming convention for easy script referencing. Popup UI : Made three new files, popup in .html, .css, .js. Essentially, it makes the popup window for the extension when the user wants to turn the smiskis off or on. Storage Integration : Connected the popup button to chrome.storage.local to persist the extension’s enabled/disabled state across browser sessions. Real-time Event Handling : Implemented chrome.storage.onChanged inside content.js so YouTube updates dynamically when settings change. Local testing : I got to “unpack” what I developed locally on my Chrome browser. When I click on my Smiski icon, I have my popup show up, yay! Current bugs and frustrations Although I have the images named the way I want them to be named, their backgrounds won’t be removed, which is very frustrating. I might have to resort to Pinterest, download their images, and get their backgrounds removed one by one instead of having it in bulk. As of right now tho, those images are uploaded and committed to GitHub as a backup. If anyone knows a way to remove the backgrounds from multiple images at the same time, a comment would help!

In this script, Smiskis are chosen randomly via a random number generator, and more random number generators are called to determine the positioning on each thumbnail and the Smiski’s size. Infinite scroll handling : Integrated a MutationObserver to watch the DOM and its continuous updates, ensuring new thumbnails get a Smiski when you scroll down Git setup : Made a git repo, cloned it into VS Code, broke it, made it again, committed and pushed any changes made Next steps: I need to actually add the images into my folders; there is no known website where you can just get Smiski images with no extra text.

Smiski YouTube Thumbnail Takeover — Warmup Project Devlog #2 Overview I continued working on this small project. Although it looks small, the schematics behind it feel very big for me. There were a lot of ups and downs in this hour, but I think I did what I wanted to accomplish today. What I accomplished today Asset Sourcing & Processing : Downloaded new Smiski images to expand the overlay library. Renamed all source assets following the standardized s_1.png , s_2.png , s_3.png naming convention for easy script referencing. Popup UI : Made three new files, popup in .html, .css, .js. Essentially, it makes the popup window for the extension when the user wants to turn the smiskis off or on. Storage Integration : Connected the popup button to chrome.storage.local to persist the extension’s enabled/disabled state across browser sessions. Real-time Event Handling : Implemented chrome.storage.onChanged inside content.js so YouTube updates dynamically when settings change. Local testing : I got to “unpack” what I developed locally on my Chrome browser. When I click on my Smiski icon, I have my popup show up, yay! Current bugs and frustrations Although I have the images named the way I want them to be named, their backgrounds won’t be removed, which is very frustrating. I might have to resort to Pinterest, download their images, and get their backgrounds removed one by one instead of having it in bulk. As of right now tho, those images are uploaded and committed to GitHub as a backup. If anyone knows a way to remove the backgrounds from multiple images at the same time, a comment would help! The button text in the popup window won’t change words. The smiskis don’t show up on the youtube thumbnails. Maybe I’ll get to that later today. Next steps! Get better photos, I guess. Debug popup.js event listeners Hopefully finish coding and debugging by tomorrow, getting it on the chrome web store, and shipping it! Until next time :D
Smiski YouTube Thumbnail Takeover — Warmup Project Devlog #3 Overview Smisk-tube is finished! What started as a simple idea to put random Smiskis on YouTube thumbnails turned into a surprisingly challenging project. I learned a lot about Chrome extensions, JavaScript, DOM manipulation, and debugging dynamic websites. What I accomplished Thumbnail Detection : Updated the extension to work with YouTube’s newer thumbnail structure. Smiski Overlays : Added randomized Smiskis with different sizes and positions. Dynamic Loading : Made Smiskis appear on newly loaded thumbnails while scrolling. Popup Controls : Finished the enable/disable button and persistent settings. Debugging : Spent a lot of time figuring out why the thumbnails weren’t being detected and finally got the extension working. Chrome Web Store : Completed the store listing, permissions, privacy information, and submitted Smisk-tube for review! 🚀 Final Thoughts This project was definitely more difficult than I expected for something so simple, but it was a really fun introduction to building something that other people can actually install and use. Now all that’s left is to wait for Google to review it and then I can ship this! Project: COMPLETE Chrome Web Store: Submitted Until next time :D
Ships:
I made a Chrome extension called Smisk-tube that randomly adds Smiskis to YouTube thumbnails. The most challenging part was getting it to work with YouTube’s constantly changing thumbnail structure and figuring out why my original selectors weren’t detecting anything. I’m most proud that I took it from an idea to a working extension that other people can actually install. It’s been submitted to the Google Chrome Web Store for review! To test it: install the extension, open YouTube, and scroll through your feed to find the Smiskis on every thumbnail in a randomized order!...
