Not a perfect screenie. I tried to edit out the extra space... my second screen is set up off center. Meh, you can see the browser, though.
I am using the Firefox Logo persona as my current skin of Firefox. My toolbars are pretty customized with almost everything placed on the bookmark toolbar. I have the sidebar open to my extensions, but I have it set to its current minimum width (I can pull it all the way across the screen if I wanted to). I am using WindowBlinds with Prototype right now. | |

Yeah. The Personas for Firefox extension lets you choose skins on the fly that it grabs from the internet... no closing Firefox to make the change.
If they slow FF down I don't notice. I prefer my functionality, period.

I am gonna check a few of Trotters out to see if maybe those will make me want to switch back to Firefox from Opera. I just have to giggle at the AiOS. Based off of Opera's sidebar. Great to see Opera has inspired greatness.

Yeah, the sidebar is a must have for me. It, coupled with the way I have put my buttons and stuff, makes surfing so much more comfortable.
BBCodeXtra is another must-have. I never use the Advanced option for a post unles I want to subscribe to the thread because BBCodeXtra gives me all of the functionality in the right click.
