Jens says:

Hey Zakk - what is it you set to 40? (http.pipelining.maxrequests)??

posted Apr 16


Chris says:

Using an extension such as FasterFox will tweak pipelining along with other settings, improving you're browsing speed without having to tweak the Config file.

Old Factory. I used to have a ton of themes now the old factory ones are the only ones I use, it's just so slick and perfect. I even have the matching XP theme.

Le Breeze. Nice, clean, and (IMO) aesthetically pleasing.

Andy Johanson says:

the original/default theme is clean, concise and suits me just fine. although i went through the usual experimental periods with others, they are all pretty good, but the web has too many bells and whistles already to have more bells and whistles on my browser...just sayin'. =]

skinnywhiteguy says:

i cant live without these

tab clicking options - so i can close tabs with a quick dbl click, among other things.
adblock plus - needs no intro
IE view - gives me the choice of an IE tab or a new IE window
linkification - turns non-clickable links, automatically behind the scenes, into a clickable link. so good you wouldn't know it was there.

Tremolo says:

HAHA... almost all of us have a huge list - another thing that goes to show the advantages over IE. So many customization options from the community.

Here's mine: AdBlock Plus, Colorful Tabs, DownThemAll!, FasterFox, GMail Notifier, IE Tab, NoScript, Searchbar Autosizer, Session Manager, and Tab Effects (which I don't really activate, but it was there).

I'm a minimalist I suppose. :)

@Nicki: oh, so we're adding themes now. I'll start a new thread. :)

Nicki says:

re: adding themes

Wow, I can't believe no one's mentioned Firebug yet! It's a MUST for any Web developer. No, I'm not just saying that. You MUST have this :)

posted Apr 23


Chris says:

FIrebug is something I was just recently introduced to. Seeing as how I'm doing my best to learn CSS, it's already paying off. Definitely a "Must Have" extension.

posted Apr 24


Reese says:

I use Firebug. Other extensions: DOM inspector, Download Statusbar, Foxmarks, Foxy Tunes, GMarks (which I don't really need now that I have Foxmarks and have Firefox on my usb drive), Google Preview, Grease Monkey, IE Tab, Image Zoom, Morning Coffee, OpenSearch Fox, Split Browser, StumbleUpon, Tab Mix Plus, Talk Back, Video Downloader.

My top 3:

1. Edit CSS (slightly ahead of WebDeveloper Toolbar)
2. AdBlock
3. QuickNote

Runner up: Stylish (mainly to make my theme (Mostly Crystal 2.0.0.17) look the way I want)
