Anybody recommend me some cool downloads for firefox?
I like the Red Cats, Curacao and Pimpzilla themes :D
Extensions... hmm, I've only ever tried one or two. Tabbed browsing stuff, I think.

I use the Phoenity theme.

For Extensions I have Chatzilla (IRC), Forecast Fox, and Bandwidth Tester. I have others, but those are the ones I use frequently.

Extensions:

Adblock - Block page elements (image, script, iframe) by regex URL matching.
Web Developer - Tools useful for webpage development such as showing block level element outlines, overlay dimensions, disable things like CSS, many other useful things.
BugMeNot - Integrate bugmenot for login/passwords.
Linkification - Properly encapsulate plaintext URLs into a clickable link.
LiveLines - Offers more control over what the RSS feed icon does.
Tabbrowser Preferences - Additional tab preferences, I use it so new tabs come up with my home page rather than blank.
ColorZilla - Eyedropper, colorpicker, and page zoomer.
Greasemoney - Uberextension, allows you to inject custom javascript behaviors into any site.

All these can be found by going to Tools > Extensions and clicking on Get More Extensions

Other that those mentioned...my favorite is "Nuke Anything"

It lets me toss the anoying flashing adds off of pages so I can actually read the content.

I greatly enjoy the Abe Vigoda Status indicator. It simply says "Alive" on the status bar. I will assume that it will say something else at some point in the future.

I like StumbleUpon.
It's brought up some really interesting random sites.
Just have to be sure to go into the more extended
entry of the things you are interested in. Although I found
myself lying to the plugin and entering things I thought I
should be interested in...and not just the shallow things that
I am. :o

I've got a few of those already mentioned (Adblock kicks major ass), but other things I find useful are:

Translate - Does exactly what it says on the tin.
Deepest Sender - LiveJournal post client.
Fireftp - usable FTP client.
Chatzilla - IRC client.
ForecastFox - weather forecasting for the local area.
Firefoxview/ieview - view pages that break in Firefox in IE and vice-versa.
Plain Text Links - lets you highlight an unlinked piece of text and open it as a weblink.

Possibly a bit of unneccesary fluff, but I tend to find them useful on various occasions.
