Good job.

A pretty essential add-on imo. I also like that you can watch yourself and give yourself the cool background.

I'll test this out later, though; It looks/reads very cool.

You use Chrome?

*Cheers* Though, you should do it on Chrome too.
It would look better on Chrome, imo.

You can't make plug-ins for chrome, at least that I know of.

Updated to include a 'Watched Authors' page.
I don't plan on trying to port this to any other browser, sorry.

Dude. I am totally nominating you for a dronie or some shit. You're doing what arachnid isn't. Now if only you could fix the other stuff from uservoice... ;D

EDIT: I know this is petty, but considering my recent work is centered around the definition of an Author, do you think you could change it to users? I understand if I'm being a selfish bitch.

If the user hasn't made any maps, there won't be anything to favorite. The only reason to favorite a user would be to see his maps, and if he creates maps, he's an author regardless of quality. Unless you're arguing something completely different.

As for the plugin, just added scrolling support ("Previous 10" and "Next 10" on the list) and a cosmetic countdown for the loading. The number of maps taken per user is up to 5. If it's too much later on, I'll bring it down.
Any bugs you find, please tell me of them, thanks.

Just my opinion, but I think 3 maps per author would be perfect. 5 is a bit much.
Also, I have a question. Is there a way to get it so that when you're scrolling through the 'Favorite Authors' list it doesn't have to load every Favorite Author, but just the ones on that page?

If you want to use the 'Active Authors' link, disable the plugin and refresh the page.
It's actually easier and quicker to just go to the home page of numa, then go to the url box and add /authors at the end of the url.
