    Default Recommended Firefox Add-Ons

    Thought I'd put together a list of Firefox add-ons I use that really make browsing a whole lot easier and quicker.

    If you have any questions as to how a certain add-on works, feel free to ask. Likewise, if there's an add-on you'd recommend, please tell me what it's called so I can check it out...

    Please don't post any hotlinks to add-ons - this first post will soon contain the active hotlinks to the add-ons.

    Here's the starting list:

    Auto Copy: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/383/ : Select text and it's automatically copied to the clipboard. No more need to right click and select 'copy'. When using a mouse, the middle button (or pressing the scroll) works to 'paste' the copied text.

    DownloadHelper: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006/ : The best downloader I've found for sites like YouTube and many others.

    DownThemAll!: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/201/ : The first and only download manager/accelerator built inside Firefox.

    dragdropupload: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2190/ : A truly heaven sent add-on for uploaders! Simply drag multiple files from your computer into the upload box at the same time, saving yourself so much time.

    Image Zoom: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/139/ : Adds zoom and rotation functionality for images. If you have a mouse, holding down the left button and using the scroll wheel you can zoom in and out on any image.

    Linkification: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/190/ : Converts text links into genuine, clickable links.

    QuickDrag: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6912/ : Extends the function of the drag-and-drop mouse gesture so that it can be used to load URLs, do a web search of selected text on a page, or save an image on a page. All with a simple drag!

    repagination: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2099/ : See more search results etc. on one page, connecting several pages together. This link claims it doesn't work in the newest veriosn of Firefox, but I have it and it is working, so...

    Screengrab!: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1146/ : Screengrab! saves webpages as images. It will capture what you can see in the window, the entire page, just a selection, a particular frame... basically it saves webpages as images - either to a file, or to the clipboard.

    Text Link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1939/ : Allows URI texts written in webpages to be loaded by double clicks.

    And here's where new ones will go for a while so they get some more exposure:
    Thumbnail Expander: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6023/ : Expands image thumbnails into full images and embeds some video links. Even works with gifs!

    I like the set when you don't have to click on the picture. It automatically gives the full picture if you scroll on the pic.

    It's very usefull on a forum like this one!

    You know, Bobby, this is the kind of thing that makes the price of admission worth it (even though this is in a free forum). Thank you. I use some fo these already but was unaware fo some of the others.

    What was this one called again fm2005freak? Pretty sure I used to have it, but got rid of it for some reason, can't remember why...

    Wouldn't mind checking it out again to see if it can win me over.
