FireShot: Full Web Page Screenshots (♥♥♥♥♥) by susbox
Review by BigThunder1
Rated 4 out of 5
by BigThunder1, 5 years agoFull Web Page Screenshots Add-0n -- FINALLY... a capture Add-on that actually works! I learned that Moz has blocked scripts accessing the Add-ons page amongst others which has prevented saving them as full webpages etc.
I did get PicPick to capture separate visible parts of the Add-ons page so I can stitch together a list of installed Add-ons.
There used to be an excellent Add-0n (B4 Moz fudged things up with web-api's) called "Infolister" that did this. But alas, that developer jumped the Mozilla ship along with 1000's of others.
This Add-on isn't perfect, but at least it works for the most part and will allow me to do what I need to do.
I remember a FireShot Add-on years ago that would archive everything relative to Ff; Profile folder, Add-ons, Ff settings, Bookmarks, Current Webpages/tabs etc etc. Wonder if this is the same developer and what happened to that Add-on. It had a few bugs here and there, but it did a fine job for what it was designed to do.

- FireShot is incredibly effective for capturing webpages, and its core functionality is genuinely useful and much appreciated.
However, I'm giving it 1 star due to a critical issue: it is closed-source. This lack of transparency is a major concern. We, the users, cannot verify the code we are running in our browsers. This presents potential security and privacy risks, as there's no way to audit the extension for hidden tracking or malicious behaviour. Trust requires transparency.
I genuinely love what this extension does, and I would instantly change my rating to 5 stars if the developers embraced free and open-source principles.
I strongly urge other users to request this change as well. Open source is vital for user security and trust in browser extensions. Developers, please consider making FireShot open-source. The concept is fantastic, but its closed nature prevents a wholehearted recommendation. - Rated 5 out of 5by Touareg 59, 3 days agowebmaster passionate about new technologies and especially Firefox which is my favorite work tool with my VIP FireShot extension

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18943196, 10 days agoWorks very well, super useful. Whenever a page can't be saved as a PDF in one take, I'll go for "Capture selection", save a set of PNGs then combine them into one PDF on Acrobat.
