A selection of my favorites:

ReloadEvery ... for those that were wondering.
Moji, although I generally just use WWWJDic instead.
Linkfication (converts text urls to links)
Adblock
Remove It Permanently (goes well with Adblock for removing annoyances)
TargetKiller (removes the target attribute from anchor tags)
HashColouredTabs (easier to distinguish tabs)
FxIF (Exif viewer)
SaveTextArea (I used to use this a lot more when I was running on powerpc and my browser kept crashing)
FLST (Focusses the Last Selected Tab)
ImageZoom
Web Developer (Toolbar, very awesome, afte radblock and RIP probably my favorite)
TinyURL Creator
Sage (Atom/RSS aggregator)

My extensions that haven't made their way into my Deer Park install yet which were invaluable before I upgraded:
Nuke Anything (Enhanced, like RIP but not permanent)
Longdesc (nobody uses this attribute anyway)
MapIt!
Tabbrowser Preferences (probably will move to TMP or something else)
Blockquote source

I have these (most already mentioned)...

DOM Inspector (don't ask).
Web Developer (not photo related).
Foxy Tunes (puts the buttons in the bottom of the browser).
Colorzilla.
IE View.
IE Tab.
Fasterfox.

My current list, having lost some due to upgrade and removed others, is:

Forecast Fox
Auto Copy
Paste Quote
BetterSearch
Adblock
Gmail Manager
Bloglines Toolkit
IE Tab
Mozilla Archive Format
Tabbrowser Preferences
FireFTP
Fasterfox
Web Developer
Always Remember Password
DownThemAll!
Greasemonkey
Menu Editor
Customize Google
SearchPluginHacks
Sort Bookmarks

And I've moved to Sunbird since the new "experimental" Mozilla Calendar is sucky.

Cool stuff. I have to get Firefox now
 02/18/2006 10:50:16 PM · #31
All I have is IEView and Image Zoom on my Firefox at the moemnt. Had Yahoo Toolbar installed, but it broke w/ the 1.5 upgrade.

This is how I found DPC too!!!


Strange, that's how I found this place also.

Cool - thanks guys!

I've been adding a few extensions that float my boat here and there. Will take some time to check out your suggestions to see what else is fun and useful!

Just for giggles, thought you might like this extension :-)))

Here is part of the quick description....
Backgroundimage Saver is a quite simple extension that provides help for an annoying technique that can be found on more and more pages. That is to hide images behind a transparent gif to protect them against being saved.

I've seen people using blank/empty/transparent divs for that, or because their layout is just nessed-up. Another option is to use Nuke Anything or Remove it Permanently to simply remove the transgressing element.

Only 2 extensions (like it clean and lean)

1. TabMixPlus - enhance the tabbed browing experience :)
2. PlainOldFavourites - let me share Favourites between IE and Firefox (very handy since I use both browsers)

Question:

Where in firefox do can I set it to refresh automatically when I come back to a page? I've looked and haven't found it....I'm assuming it's probably right in front of me and I just didn't see it.

Otherwise.....I have to refresh/reload manually instead of it automatically doing it when I go to website I've been to before.

Thanks guys!! :)

I just downloaded firefox and am trying to make friends with it.

I installed the mouse gestures, but can't find anywhere to tell me just exactly what they are, which ones are available.

Is there a simple list anywhere?
