I dun get what the big deal is yet, but I'm trying. But I need to know how to get all of my favorite over to Firefox. And how to actually use Favorites or Bookmarks in Firefox. Cause I just don't get it. It was easier with I.E. I find a site I like, I favorite it and but it in my Brandon folder or my Forums folder or my Comics folder. But I can't even make folders or bring them over. So can someone help me with that?

There should be an 'Import from Internet Explorer' function somewhere.

I like Firefox because I can make it look how I want (I use Aero Fox and it's pretty <3), and I like the Bookmark Toolbar.

Oh, and Cooliris and AdBlock and the Furigana Injector and Rikaichan and Firebug and...

Alright awesome. Now I feel like a colossal idiot xD. And now I can play around with it and see what all the hoopla is about.

What is it?

It's something that puts kana over kanji characters so it becomes readable to those who can't read kanji.

DownloadThemAll is the best thing ever.

Don't have that one. What is it? I use the download statusbar, however.

Download Status Bar is nifty, too. I use that as well. :P

DownloadThemAll lets you download all of a certain type of file either linked to or embedded in a page. Say you're on a page with 100 embedded images. You can download every single one of them at the same time. In fact, say you have twenty links to pages, and each page links to twenty images. You can open each page in a tap (middle click) and then set DownloadThemAll to download every image linked to in every tab you currently have open in that window. :P

It's especially useful for sites like Galbadia Hotel. Just middle click on every song title in an album and use DownloadThemAll to download all of the linked mp3s.

Mmm, that would be useful. I need to look into this.

I used Opera. Then when I got this computer, I went with Firefox.

I don't use Firefox for anything special, so they're both pretty much the same to me. Basically, it's a web browser.

I once downloaded every soundtrack and every remix album for every Mega Man and Mega Man X game from one website at once time using DownloadThemAll. xD

Every single one, multiple times. :P

I remember when you did that. I still have one of them that you sent me.

Ctrl+Shift+B is your friend if you need to manage your bookmarks heavily :p

Adblock/Adblock Plus and Firebug are the killer extensions for me :p
