My Reviews

Orbit Retro

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Changing between "Icons only", "Icons and Text", "Text only" doesn't work as expected. But then, it is an experimental theme.

There are only two other themes which are still up-to-date for SeaMonkey: LCARStrek (and its subdued twin Early Blue) and XPFE-Classic. And both of them have troubles with restoring tab session (while your theme doesn't).

LCARStrek

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Somehow, it interferes with tab session in my SeaMonkey 2.52a1. I had default theme + session, installed LCARStrek, restarted SeaMonkey to apply it, it opened empty SeaMonkey (with this nice theme). Also, about:sessionrestore and History->Recently closed windows were empty (and so was History->Recently closed tabs, which is plain weird). or Another restart didn't bring session back. Switching back to default theme did bring session back. Switching back to LCARStrek brought empty window (without session, again). Switching to Orbit Retro theme brought session back (which is strange-y).

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.51). 

Console²

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Don't create your own skin. Try to blend in with the theme the user has chosen, to use its style. Now you just make the buttons look like in default theme.

It is as helpful as possible, but I still don't know how to make my extension work correctly.

Hide duplicates is a great feature.

foxTalkz Chat

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

LAN chat is the unique feature. Please, allow people to enter not only name, but also short description. If not too difficult, show IPs of people. Make interface a bit more open: I didn't find file sharing (though I have not chatted yet due to small number of users).

It's compatible with Firefox 3.6.3, as far as I see. Update the version number!

Update LAN chat! I don't need Google chat.

Hello World (Firefox 1.5 edition)

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Update version number: it does work in Firefox 3.6.

Develop your own extension. You can see capabilities of Firefox add-ons by installing any of them and looking into the source (from permission of the author).

You can look at my extensions, for instance. Or Go classic. Or FirefoXP. Or Capture Fox. Or Geolocater. Or anything else.

ChromEdit

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

What about applying userchrome.css/usercontent.css instantly?

Unfortunately, the load is hidden in cpp
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/layout/style/nsLayoutStylesheetCache.cpp#189

But I hope there is a way to use LoadSheetFile in an extension.

FirefoXP

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

You need to skin HTML5 video controls. Of course, they are working, but somewhat awkward.
As Windows Media Player doesn't seem to play .ogg, you might style the video controls however you wish.

I hope I have right to remove one star for the non-styled controls?

Best regards.

Goodbye, cruel world!

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Well, I corrected language settings through about:config, but your package doesn't become valid. And I don't see a button for manual installation --- I mean, in FF3 I can download add-on through IE and install it manually, while in FF1 I will have to think a lot before I understand whether your add-on works and what is its function.

ExplorerFox Vista

Change it to http://www.explorerfox.co.nr/.

UnPlug

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I am a limited user on Windows XP. I have FF3.0.1.
Adminiatrator doesn't have Firefox.
Flash PlugIn can be installed only by administrator.
So, until administrator wishes to install Firefox, I cannot have Flash PlugIn installed.
Your UnPlug says Flash isn't necessary for YouTube?
But YouTube will not even try to show video without this plugin and your UnPlug will have nothing to catch.
Could you help me to download a video from YouTube with your Add-on?
Best Regards.
