Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I figure Firefox can go in here :).

What are some of your favorite themes for Firefox? If possible, give a link ;).

I just got this thing, and its definately cool. I'd like to supercharge it :cool:

Add weather display to your browser
 
Firefox is not an OS! :p

Anyway, my list:
AdBlock -- see above
CookieCuller -- block / allow / delete / view cookies on an individual or domain basis
Optimoz Mouse Gestures -- I prefer it to All-In-One, but take your pick
Firesomething -- Given that I've used FF under all its names, I like running "Mozilla Thunderpigeon"
Web Developer / IE View / DOM Inspector -- Essential for web design work
Disable Targets for Downloads -- prevents download links from opening new (blank) tabs
BugMeNot -- quick access to a database of login/passwords for free registration sites (like, say, the New York Times) that don't really need your zip code or email address

//edit: I'm not linking because they're all available on the Texturizer listing. Just type-to-find!
 
Can you guys please include what version of Firefox you have with these extensions. Some don't work with 1.0PR :(
 
Adblock!!! - The best extension ever.
IE View - Some pages just weren't written with standards in mind.
Compact Menu - I don't like having the menu bar take up more space than needed. So I cram everything on to one bar.
Sort Bookmarks - To sort bookmarks alphabetically

All mine listed are 0.10 (1 PR) compatible.

It doesn't work with 1.0 but it's really the best plugin ever created by man.

...

No, REALLY! :D
 
I like the sort bookmarks because it is just so cluttered and a pain to arrange. Does not work with 1.0 PR ;)

Actually it does. There is an update version that is 1.0 compatible. The only old extension that I miss that has no been update was the bookmark extension that allowed you A-Z sort all your bookmarks at once.

Allow Right Click - defeats sites that attempt to keep you from downloading photos.

Autofill - because I am lazy git

Linkification - converts text into HTML links automatically

Tabbrowser Preferences - about the only way to properly control Firefox's tabbed browsing as the Single Window extension does not actually work.

Dictionarysearch - makes for checking spelling and meanings a click away.

Download Status Bar - monitor downloads in an auto hide status bar.

digitalman,

You got OpenBook to work with FFPR?

I use Tabbrowser Preferences 0.6.14

cookie culler (to protect cookies)

I also downloaded a utility to search the bookmarks for duplicates.
I wish Basics would be updated.
