1. Maybe you can help me. Some images resize to my browser, some don't.

Is there an extension that will fit all images to the browser?

[pokerfan]

9. Maybe

One of the things I didn't like about FF3 was the default setting for full page zoom. When I zoom it's usually to make the text a little bigger. The default in FF3 is to zoom everything which can make the page wider than the window and force one to use the dreaded horizontal scroll. :(

Fortunately, that's easy to fix: Go to the View menu, click on Zoom and check 'Zoom Text Only.'

Next, install the ImageZoom extension. This lets you zoom or shrink images by pulling up a context menu with right click. I use it mainly to shrink images that are wider than the window.

HTH

2. Is this becoming a monthly post for you?

:P

[pokerfan]

10. Oh, hush

3. I don't have many, surprisingly.

11. Never seen bugmenot

Might have to give that a look.

TabMixPlus I've tried but I guess I'm just too used to the way the native FF handles tabs to change.

[ghostsofgiants]

13. Firefox's tab handling has gotten a lot better, but I've been using Tabmix for so long...

I just can't go back, haha.

15. duplicate tab is the one thing I would like to have

but I don't need it that often and I'm afraid tabmix would screw up the way I'm used to using tabs.

4. Not many...

I recently cut my add-ons by half and stuck with the bare essentials because they were slooooooowing down my computer too much

I currently have
AdBlock
ForecastFox
Gmail Manager
Session Manager

and that's it. I think I need to get another gig of memory for my PC because I've noticed that in the past year Firefox has become a huge memory hog

[pokerfan]

14. I just took a look at my resources

and even with all those extensions and lots of tabs open (29 right now) it's using under around 200MB which seems reasonable considering.

5. Forecast Fox...that's about it

I used to have FoxyTunes, but I never use it. Mac manages multiple applications well enough that it's a lot easier to just have iTunes open.

6. Adblockplus and Vidnapper.

I'm a bare bones type o guy. :)

7. Firebug, Flashblock, Live HTTP Headers, View Source Chart.

16. Just Flashblock and MIME Helper

But I use Proximitron as an inbound HTML filter.
