My Reviews

Page Colors & Fonts Buttons

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

It definitely works, but most font sizes aren't changed (for example, the text box for writing this review has a changed-size font, but almost all the other text on the page including on the add-on download page, and my review on the "read reviews" page, isn't changed). It changes the colours for everything in Firefox and carries on for as long as you have the add-on toggled, so you can move from page to page without having to re-click it. The settings box to change the font size and colour is in your normal firefox settings page, the problem is that the colour preferences box can't scroll, so in my case the settings for "link colours" are cut off and I can't change them. Still, it works perfectly fine, I only wish you could add it to the context menu because that's much easier for me than clicking on the navbar.

EDIT: Okay, thanks for the reply! Right now I'm using another addon that changes the minimum font size using a keystroke, it works really well.

Element Hiding Helper for Adblock Plus

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This is the best addon EVER (along with ones like NoSquint and that can change Firefox's system font)!!! I didn't know I needed it so badly, or that it could help me make the internet so extremely clean and 90's! In combination with the "Remove It Permanently" add-on, I can block anything I want extremely easily, which often ends up being anything that is ugly, annoying, or that clutters up a webpage.

Because I usually have the font size of a webpage enlarged, sometimes this really messes up the site's layout (because no one thinks about half-blind people and their layouts aren't at all expecting a font size bigger than 10px...) and then I can usually remove an image or something that's getting in the way of, say, the search bar.

Mostly I use this on sites that I'm visiting more than once. Good examples being online dictionaries (I blocked the tons of crap on Jisho.org where it says stuff like "This kanji is 22435 in book x"), Memrise (blocked a whooole bunch of text and images, including the header image), Tradera.se (blocked stuff like "my bookmarks" that obstructed the search bar), Tumblr (blocked stuff like "my follower count" and "suggested blogs to follow" along with the ad on the sidebar) and there's just various other sites I visit at least semi-frequently where I blocked things like chatboxes, Twitter feeds, Facebook/Twitter "like" buttons and so on. I think it's very important to note that you can also block specific small pieces of text, for example a single paragraph.

I'm not sure how much faster it makes pages to load, but it's not like I'm blocking all the images on a page either. I also have other addons installed that do stuff like block Google's tracking and hide all comments, which might help the speed... So for me it's not about loading stuff faster, it's just about making me way less irritated when I go online.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.3.2.1-signed).

Works fantastic, I especially like the "sticky" feature so it holds in place and I can copy/paste words from it. But are there explanations of the abbreviations anywhere? I can't figure out what "ctr" means for 巻 for example.

I wish you could have the pop-ups be a scrolling box, because sometimes with my font size the pop-up gets longer than the page and I can't see it all.
