speckyboy.com— A collection of extensions for your every Design and Development need, from Editing CSS and Database Management to Image Capture and Color Pickers.

So many of the extensions listed either duplicate effects that others on the list provide (like Webdeveloper, it does what some 6+ other scripts listed do, and more) or just have no legitimate purpose for being associated with design & development (noproxy does not aid in design & development)
MeasureIt is kinda useless because you normally need to zoom in to measure pixel distances accurately. I've always found graphics programs to be the best for this. Same could be said for ColorZilla, too.
Wow... I'd hate to imagine what my Firefox experience would be like if I ran 27 extensions!I use 5 (after reading this list, that is). Web Developer is great, and encompasses the function of several of these extensions. Of course, I use the Google Toolbar. I also use Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer. I use Flashblock (because I only want to eliminate nuisances that will eat up my CPU cycle; I think Adblock goes too far with its lists, and does far more harm to web publishers than any good). And finally, I now use the Extended Statusbar.
Holy crap if you install 27 plug-ins for Firefox you will need 16GB of ram just to run the stupid thing.It's a web browser, NO! It's an IDE with huge memory leaks!

I hadn't heard of SQLite Manager before. It's quite well done.<a class="user" href="http://code.google.com/p/sqlite-manager/">http://code.google.com/p/sqlite-manager/</a>

You know what we need? Firebug for IE. Beyond just console messages.
