FireShot
The official description:

Quote:

FireShot is a Firefox extension that creates screenshots of web pages.
Unlike other extensions, this plugin provides a set of editing and annotation tools, which let users quickly modify web captures and insert text annotations and graphical annotations. Such functionality will be especially useful for web designers, testers and content reviewers.
It's possible to choose whether you want to capture entire web page or take screenshot of only visible part of the web page.

The captures can be:

- uploaded to FREE public screenshot hosting
- saved to disk (PNG, GIF, JPEG, BMP)
- printed
- copied to clipboard
- e-mailed
- sent to configurable external editor for further processing.

I'll update this post later, as I'm trying out FireShot now.(it seems very good)

Seeing as I have a MBP, I have been trying to do some research on how to get the 3 finger swipe function on the trackpad make pages go back and forward just like what happens in Safari. For example, In safari, when you swipe 3 fingers on the trackpad, it navigates either backwards of forwards one page.

So if anyone knew or could find an extension on how to do it in Firefox, please let me know.

Thanks

Luke

I can't find one for Firefox, but I can find one for the intire computer/whatever you are using it for.
MultiClutch(don't pay attention to name it has in the url(seriously, don't)).

Or use this.

I hope either of those work for you. ^^

Thanks for that. I did try using Multiclutch, but I couldn't make the 3 finger swipe a command. So i'll try out the other thing and see how i go. And I'll let everyone know.

Update

I tried out the other program, called Minefield. It is a firefox equivalent. Except, half of the add-ons i have, weren't compatible with minefield. So, thanks for looking anyway, but I might just wait until firefox bring out an extension for it or an updated browser, because there have been people that are leaving feedback for mozilla to bring out something like that.
