Great article! Have you considered creating collections for your add-on list posts? Readers can then see all the install links on one page, and you can see how many people installed those add-ons from your collection. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/collections/popular

Not really for designers, more for front-end engineers. YSlow is a fantastic add-on for firefox which tells you what is slowing down your pages. Linky here

Hello,

Nothing about accessibility ? Contrasts, colorblindness…
See Colour Contrast Analyzer for example. (https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/7313)

Didn’t know about some of these, will have to try them out! As a web designer I use Web Developer all the time – firebug is also really useful as well.

Thanks for the incorrect link catch, everyone. Palette Grabber has been updated.

Awesome list!
I have 9 of them installed (some I’ve used for years) and I have 3 tabs loaded to check out a few others mentioned here.

By the way, the Palette Grabber is incorrect.
The correct one is…

To save someone some time out there – Gridfox wont work properly if your have colourTabds installed… You may need to disable colourTabs whilst working with Gridfox
