As suggested by udidu, use chrome.storage. You can store images as base64 or blobs.

sorry to respond to a really old thread but do you have a good example of storing a blob in chrome.storage? I attempted it and the value that got stored was "{"type":"image/jpeg","size":42123}". I'd rather use a blob instead of a base64 url if I can, because it is more compact. – infomofo Feb 23 '14 at 21:14
