Image Saver Firefox Extension

Image saver Firefox Extension was adapted from the very useful Bazzacuda Image Saver.  Unfortunately, the extension stopped working with Firefox 3.0+, and there seemed to be no communication from the developer.  The listed development website goes to an unrelated page.  I set out to repair my personal install thinking it was just something simple like changing a version number or a new XUL specification.  But it turned out to be a little more code changing than I originally bargained for.

I did get it working again, and I believe other people found this extension useful, so I am releasing the modified code.  The original code is under the MPL/GPL license, so this shouldn’t be an issue.  I changed the name to be more generic, just in case the original developer decides to continue development.  I actually intended on eventually making an image extension to save images to different folders with hotkeys.  So, since I have already delved into this code base, I may just add onto it.

Description

This extension can save images directly from multiple tabs, or can automatically pick the largest image from a tab and save it via ctrl-alt-L to a pre-defined folder.

Install Current Version of Image Saver (2.1.01)

changes:

2.1.01 - New installations that never had previous versions of the application installed would not be able to save preferences. This has been fixed.
