Firefox 3 Extensions

Some time ago, I decided to host my Firefox extensions on Juicy Studio, as I found hosting and administrating the extensions through Mozilla's add-ons interface cumbersome, and unintuitive. Users are also expected to be signed up members of Mozilla add-ons to be able to download extensions, unless they have been reviewed by an expert user; in which case, anyone can download them.

With Firefox 3, extensions must come from a secure server, which I don't have, so I've been forced to revert back to using Mozilla's add-ons page. If you are a member, you can download the extensions now. If not, I've submitted extensions for review, but I've no idea when they will be available to the general public.

    yeah, mozilla's add-on system is annoying that way. i've installed, tested and reviewed your extensions, so hopefully they'll be taken out of the sandbox soon...

    Thanks, Patrick. I'm pleased they have been reviewed by someone that understands their purpose. The last review I had resulted in someone saying the glossary of terms extension didn't do anything - concluded from testing a page that didn't have any abbreviations or acronyms.

    Hi Gez,

    The extension is great, must address some of the contrast issues on my site!

    Hope things are good with you and yours.

    Take Care, Gaz *smile*
