WebM for NeoGAF (Chrome extension)

Making that stupid screenshot took most of the time, lol. If anyone wants to port it to Firefox or whatever the code ain't complex:

Code: 
'use strict';

var videos = document.querySelectorAll('.post a'),
  link, video;

for (var i = 0; i < videos.length; i++) {
  link = videos[i].href;
  if (link.indexOf('.webm') === link.length - 5) {
    video = document.createElement('video');
    video.src = link;
    video.autoplay = true;
    video.loop = true;
    video.muted = true;
    video.width = '500';
    
    videos[i].parentNode.replaceChild(video, videos[i]);
  }
}

There might even be a better way to do it, dunno. Spent about 10 minutes on this haha.

If you learn the basics of any of the script ad ons for FF you could practically just paste that code into the right place. GreaseMonkey could do it.

Just need to fix up that less than symbol escaping.

Weird they didn't support webP. It's basically the same general compression algorithms used in webM but for (animated) images.
