Do you only turn it on when you're searching?

ok i havent read through all the replies here but my by far best/most used Firefox addon is PicLens.
Lets you scroll through the pictures on google and on other sites as if the pics were on your pc.
The effect is similar to scrolling through albums in iPhone's music library, whats it called, cover flow?
Try it and youll love it im sure, completely new way of searching for images.

Mine seems to take just as long to load as the page would without it.

Whenever FF is running. Or do it manually. Doesn't seem to slow anything down.

If you have ever had an image that was too large to fit on your screen or too small to see the finer detail in your browser or email, then image zoom can help. Image zoom gives you complete control of the size of most images displayed in mozilla based software. Both individual images or whole pages of images can be zoomed.

Image Zoom - Version 0.3.1

I upgraded to Firefox 3 and now can't insert (edit) my TD posts without erasing the whole post (to the point of the error).

Yes, my Insert key works. I don't want to go back to IE because I like Firefox's spellchecker -- but I will if I have to retype every post with a misspelling.

Anyone else have this problem? How did you remedy it?

^
that's strange.

i don't have that problem.

anyone else got it?

Can get old version of FF here

i have firefox 2 and 3 as options, but there must be some reason for texpat's problem.

not a user setting on TD of some kind is it?

Don't think so. I also added a Thai ไทย language keyboard recently so that may be the culprit too.

When I open a Word Document, the insert function works fine. I'll keep hunting.

oh sorry.

i misunderstood, you are trying to use the insert key.

i've never used it, why do you need it?

Firefox 3.0.2 been released if anyone didnt know.

Firebug - for being a nerd and helping me with work.
Flagfox - for being a nerd and just a general nosy bastard.

Im now on FF 3.0.2. Whenever I log in to TD it doesnt automatically redirect me, just sticks on the page you get after you enter the login details.

Anyone know how to fix this?

ok, my fav add ons,
no1 GBookmarks, for storing my links on my google account
no2 ScrapBook, for saving the website content,
no3 iMacros, for easy log in

I quite like this add on.

You can re-arrange the order by drag and drop. Theres a good number of the popular sites with logos made already, some of which have an "add to fast dial" button beneath the image so if you go to the logo site through the properties bit it adds them to the bookmark rather than downloading them then having to browse and add them manually.

Its raining so I decided to spend at least 5 mins making a transparent TD logo to haul TD into the future of err, stuff. I might do the twee reflection on as well.



Oh forgot. Do I need permission to steal the TD logo and use it for wanton bookmarking purposes?
Tough shite if I do.

I use Downthemall, it's a good download manager for Firefox, completely free!
Fasterfox is also good for increasing surfing speed

Firefox 3.0.3 has been released. That was quick, the last one was ony days ago.

Firefox 3.0.3 contains the following changes:

• Fixed a problem where users were unable to retrieve saved passwords or save new passwords (bug 454708)
• See the Firefox 3.0.2 release notes for previous changes.

^ I only got informed of the upgrade to 3.0.2 today.

This isnt an add on and its for Mac only.

Ive just downloaded one of the optimised FF3 builds for my G4 iBook and Im giving it a whirl, seems OK possibly a bit faster and add ons all seem to work so far.

You can find the optimised builds hereG4/G5/Intel optimized build for Mac OS X

Japanese site but all the builds are English

Fancy saving a bit of precious real estate on that monitor or screen of yours?

This is Windows only so I can only guess at what it does from the pics. It looks like it puts all the top menu bar menu items like File, Edit, View etc into a smaller drop down menu saving(?) space.
