Was just wondering what everyone uses. I've use a few but wouldn't mind finding a few more if anyone has any decent suggestions.
One's I find great so far are:
Screen Grab
IE View
Html Tidy
Web Developer
Gmail Notifier
Ad Block
Sage (Rss reader)

I really like forecast fox and have it running in my bookmarks toolbar for the upcoming 4 days.
Also use the Noia 2.0 theme whihc looks good.

I don't want to bog down my Firefox with lots of extensions so I have created different profiles:
'Webby' has web developer, colourzilla, fireFTP and some other useful ones for manipulating web pages
'Downloader' has flashgot and a few other bits for download large amounts fast
My normal profile has:
scrapbook
sage
IEview
flashblock
Image zoom
foxytunes
Ajax for yahoo mail (just downloaded - really liking)
in addition i have Nightly Tester Tools extenstion because I'm running 1.5 beta and it's the only way to get my other extensions to work (website not working at time of writing - and only the one from that website is 1.5 ready)0 -
Anyone who uses yahoo mail give Ajax for yahoo mail a try
You can then read mail and reply directly from the inbox - Not had it long but seems very cool0 -

Adds loads of tools for web development. It has loads of css, image, form options etc... Plus you can set the size of the window (handy for testing resolutions without having to change your screen resolution).
It also has links for validating html, css, links. You can outline elements on a pge to see how it's made up etc... loads of stuff. Is very good."Boonowa tweepi, ha, ha."0 -
I use something called SA Last read, it was written for another forum I go on and has tonnes of features, like highlighting topics you've posted in red, and unread topics blue etc0

I downloaded the stumble! extension. It's really really good. You can set your own preferences & when you click it it takes you to other websites you might never have found before. I have come across some brilliant ones (According to my preferences i set) & I would highly recommend it, especially if you want to waste a bit of time0
