My Reviews
Gray Static
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Pleasant texture, good colour contrast, enhances readability. Elegant and undistracting.
Google Reader New Style Minimalistic By DemianGod
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I've only tried the Greasemonkey script which I assume is equivalent to the full add-on. It removes all the clutter, uses a smaller font, and greatly improves readability and navigation. I highly recommend it to anyone with a large collection of subscriptions. Many thanks.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.3).SoundUnwound
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Soundunwound.com looks like an exciting project. However, given the current speed of Firefox, I'd rather not install another add-on just to use one search engine. Please consider submitting your details to the Mycroft Project, to generate a standard search engine plugin. so that we can search SoundUnwound directly through Firefox.
Linky
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I am extremely sorry to see that this brilliant add-on has started to receive poor ratings. I have been using Linky regularly for years, in a browser loaded with other add-ons, and I have never had a problem with it. It is an amazing time saver and I recommend it highly. A million thanks to the developer.
Save Images
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I'm sorry to see that this add-on is receiving 3-star and 4-star ratings because it can't perform every imaginable image-related task, and also make the tea. I find it absolutely brilliant. When used in combination with the Linky add-on ("Open Selected Links in tabs") it saves me vast amounts of time in downloading images from multiple tabs. A million thanks to the developer.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.6.8.1-signed).Element Hiding Helper for Adblock Plus
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This add-on is extremely useful and well designed. It is very easy to use. It delivers the power to wield Adblock like a scalpel to every single user, not just geeks who are comfortable with arcane syntax. Brilliant work!
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.6).SearchWith
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
This plugin drives me nuts. When it's working it's indispensable. The intended functionality really should be part of the core Firefox build. On the other hand, it's buggy as hell, and has been for years, and wastes vast amounts of my time. I have just tried to delete one single search engine and SearchWith deleted the lot. It never asks for confirmation. And its interface is utterly crap. A++ for concept, D- for implementation. Infuriating.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.4.3.1-signed.1-signed).Titlebar Tweaks
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Works perfectly for me on Firefox 3.6. I use multiple Firefox profiles and it's extremely useful to be able to identify them at a glance. This is exactly what I was looking for. Many thanks.
Copy Plain Text
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I use Copy Plain Text many times per day. If it doesn't work with a forthcoming Firefox upgrade, then I won't upgrade Firefox until it does. It is a very simple piece of functionality which I believe should be part of Firefox's core functionality.
Wizz RSS News Reader
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
The options menu for this extension really needs to state that it stores its data in Bookmarks. Until I discovered that fact quite by accident, I found Wizz almost impossible to use. Once you realise you can add categories and channels and sort them very easily through the Bookmarks menu, it's a breeze to use. Excellent and highly useful extension.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.1.9.1).Gmail Skins
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Same problems here. I’m stuck with my initial modifications, unless I uninstall. The workaround which Pacman describes does not work for me. If I disable, restart, re-enable and restart Firefox, then I just get back to a modified skin. If I uninstall Gmail Skins, and delete all Google cookies, and also delete the gmskins@mdparker folder, and then reinstall, I still find that the defaults have not been restored. I would very much like to know where this extension saves its data.
I get the "TypeError: u.g() has no properties" alert, after every single button press, if and only if I have elected to view Gmail without chat. However the alert is less of an annoyance than what happens if I view Gmail with chat, and also with horizontal navigation. The Chat menu then stays open and extends downwards into the mail display, obscuring part of it. Having also used the extension to disable the footer, I can now only turn Chat on and off by disabling and re-enabling the extension.
I really hope that there'll be a fix, because I think it's potentially a very useful extension. I like the new layout and will probably continue using it despite the bugs.
