Here is a message from Rey Bango, the Add-ons manager at Mozilla:

firefox 3 modern logo

“An important part of the success of Mozilla Firefox is it’s ability to customize the web experience using Firefox add-ons. Mozilla is in need of experts in web technologies such as JavaScript, HTML&  CSS to help in reviewing newly submitted add-ons to AMO, Mozilla’s central hub for add-ons. AMO Editors assist in:

  • Reviewing new and updated add-ons to ensure that Mozilla users have a great experience
  • Working with developers to improve their add-ons through advice and code suggestions
  • Helping Mozilla to develop guidelines to streamline the review process

The role is both challenging and rewarding as you get the opportunity to evaluate the work of top-notch developers from throughout the world and determine how to improve their efforts. If you’d like to contribute to the Mozilla project and gain valuable knowledge&  experience in the process please apply to become a AMO editor here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Update:Editors/Applying“

Aero style glassy icons on a light background.

Aero Fox Sliver redone for Firefox 3. Aero style glassy icons on a light background.

This theme is my basic version meaning it contains the full features of the navigator toolbar, bookmarks toolbar and tabs while the rest of the theme uses features from the default Windows theme. This is a lite version of the theme for users who need nothing more than just the main toolbar and do not use a lot of extensions and other add-ons.

Addon so far for downloading YouTubes and it has apparently stopped working.

UnPlug is another add-on for Firefox that allows us to download YouTube Videos.

UnPlug scans web pages and tells you where media players are getting their data from, and displays it as a simple hyperlink: in most cases, you can then follow the simple download link to save the media file.

UnPlug works for lots of sites including youtube.com, ifilm.com, current.tv, revver.com, peekvid.com, video.google.com, mobuzztv.com and lots, lots more.

Unlike many other extensions, UnPlug scans the page, and if it doesn’t know where the data comes from it can guess – correctly most of the time.

It worked flawlessly for me. After installing, the UnPlug fishy thigy :D will appear after the search tab on the Navigation Toolbar. Click on it to view links. Click Save to save to HDD.
