By toggling the composition on and off, the developer can visually see how many pixels they are off in development.

Pixel Perfect also has an opacity option so that you can view the HTML below the composition. By being able to see both the composition and the HTML you can now simultaneously use Firebug while Pixel Perfect is still in action.

Oh yeah!

Remove with one click all the Flash contents of the current page, preserving space.

It works under all Operating Systems, but it’s interesting especially for Linux.

The Flash plugin for Linux has a painful bug, all Flash content is always covering the other elements of the page, hiding and making inaccessible other parts of the page like dropdown menus, preventing to navigate on these sites. Flash Killer remove them with one click!

Flash Killer add an item to the contextual menu, as well as an item in the Tools menu. You can remove these items in the options if you prefer.
A button is available too for your toolbar. Right click on the toolbar, choose ‘Customize…’, drag and drop the ‘Flash Killer’ button.

How to put back the Flash contents?
Just reload the current page.

If you desire a more radical extension, to block all Flash contents as soon as a page is loading, take a look at the FlashBlock extension.

The PrefBar extension contains too a button to eliminate the Flash, so if you use it, Flash Killer is useless.

So, Flash your bad self!

I have decided to release a list of 366 Traffic Methods all at once. So now, you can’t ask me how to get traffic for a WHOLE YEAR.

Go away!

Okay, I’m just kidding.

Really.

The great thing about this guide is that it’s rebrandable.

You can just put your own link on the front page, or you can do that AND join the free affiliate program and load affiliate links in it with the rebranding kit, a zip file you can find right here or on the last page of the guide. I have committed Mac treason and created a program that only runs on Windows, (XP or Vista). Please refrain from flogging me. I will do my best to help if you have a Mac that doesn’t run Windows, just reply below.

(And… btw… HOW DO YOU LIVE? I was without Windows on my MacBook Pro for two weeks and almost drown in my own tears. Anyway.)

(You can get your 366 Traffic Methods here if you are reading this via feed and can’t see the embed above. That’s a PDF link so don’t hurt yourself!)

If you own The Evergreen Traffic System or Traffic Reality and are signed up at my site, there’s an affiliate link in your member area that will give you an extra 10% bonus, so please use that one instead of signing up twice.

Oh, and of course I forgot to mention in the guide that the cookie the affiliate code drops is good for a Year.

That’s right, even if it takes a year for someone who signs up to our newsletter at the site to buy, or even if they don’t sign up but you were the first person to tell them, it will be a year before anyone else gets to make a sale through them.

So. Uh. You might want to grab the rebrand kit and get your copy out there before everyone else.

And if you need hints as to how you can do that?

It’s a guide to generating web traffic! So you can use the traffic generating guide to generate traffic to the traffic generating guide. Lots of the methods are free, too. (See what I did there?)

Have at it.

Basically Screengrab! let’s you take what you want from a web-page: the entire scrollable document, just the visible bit, or a draggable selection. Screengrab will even save just the contents of an individual frame.

Screengrab captures Flash and Java applets as long as you have Java installed.

To use it, just right-click a page to bring up the context menu and look at the options under “Screengrab”. It’s pretty self-explanatory!

FlagFox displays a country flag depicting the location of the current website’s server and provides quick access to detailed location and webserver information.

Flagfox is an extension for Mozilla Firefox that shows a flag icon indicating the current website’s server location. It uses relatively little resources, and works by accessing an IP address location database contained within the extension rather than relying on top-level-domain roots like “.com” or “.uk”. Clicking the icon loads Geotool, which provides a map of the location as well as more detailed information such as the ISP, city, and local time. The context menu also provides quick access to information about the country of origin, as well as the ability to lookup the domain’s registrant via Whois.

Uses of Flagfox range from simply educating users about the global nature of the Internet to:
* SEO and web development research
* Indicating the native languages and legal jurisdictions for webservers
* Warning when sites that are not in the country the say they are
* Quickly viewing/copying server IP addresses for diagnostic and other uses

Flagfox is fairly customizable, allowing users to choose between two icon sets with positioning options anywhere in the address or status bar. Advanced users may create their own custom lookup to perform specialized searches for the current server.

So, as I said, let your freak flag fly!

Better Privacy serves to protect against not deletable longterm cookies, a new generation of ‘Super-Cookie’, which silently conquered the internet. This new cookie generation offers unlimited user tracking to industry and market research. Concerning privacy Flash- and DOM Storage objects are most critical.

This addon was made to make users aware of those hidden, never expiring objects and to offer an easy way to get rid of them - since browsers are unable to do that for you.

Flash-cookies (Local Shared Objects, LSO) are pieces of information placed on your computer by a Flash plugin. Those Super-Cookies are placed in central system folders and so protected from deletion. They are frequently used like standard browser cookies. Although their thread potential is much higher as of conventional cookies, only few users began to take notice of them. It is of frequent occurrence that -after a time- hundreds of those Flash-cookies reside in special folders. And they won’t be deleted - never.

BetterPrivacy can stop them, e.g. by allowing to silently remove those objects on every browser exit. So this extension becomes sort of “install and forget add-on”. Usually automatic deletion is safe (no negative impact on your browsing), especially if the deletion timer is activated. The timer can delay automatic deletion for new or modified Flash-cookies which might be in use. It also allows to delete those objects immediately if desired.

With BetterPrivacy it is possible to review, protect or delete new Flash-cookies individually. Users who wish to to manage all cookies manually can disable the automatic functions. BetterPrivacy also protects against ‘DOM Storage’ longterm tracking, a browser feature which has been granted by the major browser manufactures.

Easy as pie!

How about BabelFish?

BabelFish is an easy, highly customizeable, and fast Firefox translation extension: Provides two translation services and additional access to Google’s dictionary!

Translate words or a whole text…

- with a doubleclick.
- just by highlighting
- just by hovering a word with the mouse
- via context menu
- with a middle mouse click
- with Alt+leftclick
- with Alt+rightclick
- even supports keyboard only operations

The translation will be displayed as a small popup on the same page, right below the text you wished to translate. So you can keep your eyes on the text and there is no need to close another translation-window. Optional the translation can be displayed in a separated panel below the document or as really tiny tooltip when you hover a word with the mouse.

Currently available translation services are Yahoo and Google including Google’s dictionary. Quickly (one click) switch to the other service to see an alternative translation result. This is an important feature as the translation services sometimes provide different results for the same text.

Easily switch the translation direction (one click): The backwards translation offers a good way to check a translation for correctness (e.g. in textareas). BabelFish provides many additional features like language detection, service fallback algorithm and even auto-language can be configured.

To change the language you may use the statusbar icon, the FireFox tools menu or just click ‘L’ while a translation tooltip is visible. Creation of predefined translations turns any language switching to a simple task. A copy button makes it easy to copy the translation result to another destination etc.

What can be easier?
