What’s new in version 1.1.3?

                No more trying to tell the difference between blue and dark-purple at 2AM with NightShift on. 

Easily change the color of your previously visited links using the predefined colors or choose your own. Use the included blacklist to prevent Link Control from running on certain sites.

Good for users who have a tough time with colors or are color-blind - as you can choose exactly the color you want. For me I work a lot at night and have a tough time distinguishing the colors of regular links vs visited links. It started costing me time so I decided I would make this extension to help out.

# Update - v1.1.0 - 04-06-2019
- Added editing of blacklist.
- Added button to add current URL to blacklist.
- Adjusted styling.

I just installed this and it feels like a miracle! I could not find any setting in Chrome or Windows that would let me change the color of visited links. Wish I had found this sooner. Thank you for making this!!! Now visited links are a totally different color, like they always were until recently. I thought that was a basic requirement for browsing and can't believe I had to add something so fundamental to the browser.

Simply Brilliant! I used it for a long time before realizing i could black list sites. This is really helpful for those sites that don't view that well with your colour selection. One of my favorite extensions. Thanks John! You made my life so much easier.

Thank you for this nice tool. Could you please add a option "apply to default link style only"? Sometimes websites use white text links with background (like a button) and that background can be the same as my selected color. Example of trouble: Original: red button with white text; With extension: red button with red text
