Great extensions for Firefox
by Sapphire (July 13, 2006)
If you use Firefox, I’ve found a really handy extension for making quick and easy screenshots from your browser in the .png format. It’s called Snapper, and it works on Windows and Mac. A little red shark sits at the bottom right corner of your browser window. Click him, and his mouth opens. The click your mouse at the corner of what you want to grab, and drag until you’ve got the whole screencap. Hit “enter” and it prompts you to save. There’s also an option for automatically having it save images to a certain file.
Another extension I’ve gotten a lot of use out of is ColorZilla, which is great for getting the color scheme on your sites just right. It has an eyedropper tool and all sorts of color wheels and charts for you to choose colors and get the CSS or RBG numbers. It’s also got a zoom function (great for isolating a pixel or two of color with the eyedropper), and some other cool features I don’t really understand. (What is a dom inspector? Sounds slightly kinky…)

Hi,
What a great post it is.
Currently iam using fire fox for my profession.so really it will be useful for me.I think you know Mozilla offers free download for fire form option ,prand alexa tools.Like that is there any free download is available for red shark?I think you had little confusion in DOM Inspector tool.Mainly it is used for inspection and editing the web document.DOM Inspector is a tool that can be used to inspect and edit the live DOM of any web document or XUL application.
Thanks for your valuble information
