- Rated 5 out of 5by iudex, 6 years agoPERFECT. The name says it all.
edit: actually, I (don't) want to nitpick, but if the tab name could be just "New Tab" I'd appreciate it.
disclaimer: I tried to just change the index.html myself, however firefox removed the extension..Developer response
posted 6 years agoThanks for the review. Would you mind adding the feature request in github issues of the project? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16107207, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefoss, 6 years agoWorks great.
Very useful.
Open source.
No dangerous permissions. - Rated 5 out of 5by cengels, 6 years agoA great lightweight new-tab extension, plus the extension's developer is very open to user feedback on its github page. Whether it's a feature request or a discovered bug, the developer always responds quickly and conscientiously. For my purposes, this is the best new-tab page I've ever used.
- Rated 5 out of 5by INIROBO, 6 years agoThis is the home page I have been looking for a year and it's better than anything I would have expected from a simple homepage. Thank you.
Edit: Do you have to put images to each of the icons using right click -> Edit, or do they appear automatically?Developer response
posted 6 years agoThank you for a nice review!
You can drag an image from e.g. desktop onto a bookmark.
There is no fancy auto-generation of thumbnails or screenshotting or similar (only opera-like text based thumbnails) as there is no easy, independant of 3rd party services and secure way to achieve that in a firefox extension. - Rated 4 out of 5by KingKozaK, 7 years agoReally great, the one I had on chrome was a little better because it would cycle through scenic photographs instead of a plain color, but all the functionality is here!

posted 7 years ago1. This is not a feature-request forum. There's a dedicated support page for things like that.
That said, you can easily do what you want in Settings/Custom CSS, enter this line:
body {background: #222 url("https://picsum.photos/1800/1200/?random") 0 0/cover no-repeat;}
2. Please understand, that I'm doing that for free, in my spare time, and you're not paying a cent for it. So I'd appreciate if you didn't put me down because in the free software that I gave you for free, I didn't include all the functionality that, I didn't know, that you wanted.
If you're looking for a feature that is not there, please add a feature request in project's github and I'll do my best to add it for you. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14643647, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by sboltzmann99, 7 years agoBeautiful and elegant. This should be the default behavior of Firefox if they really want to create a good user experience.
- Rated 5 out of 5by VM, 7 years agoIt is almost perfect!
I wish there was a shortcut grid as on the Windows desktop for shortcuts. everything else is just perfect!
P / s I saw some kind of CSS editor. I don’t quite understand how I can use it, how to change the shadow of the text, can someone tell me?Developer response

Styling tutorial is here: https://github.com/tborychowski/perfect-home/blob/master/customization-tutorial.md
If you have feature requests please create an issue in this repo. - Rated 5 out of 5by bubble, 7 years agoSimple and functional Speed Dial with good customization. Looking for simplicity in design and ease of use? This is it.
- Rated 5 out of 5by ArneWeise, 7 years agoWhat would I do without all these nifty addons people create. Thank you very much for your time and effort :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by Rui, 7 years agoI've recently migrated from Safari to Firefox and was almost giving up because I couldn't see all my bookmarks on a new tab - which sounds silly but it's very, very convenient and once you are accustomed to it, it's hard to give it up. I've been searching for an add-on for a while now. Finally, found it! Not only it was what I was looking for, but the permissions only asks to read and modify bookmarks and not read everything we type in a page or unnecessary things. Thank you very much!
p.s Is it possible to see the favicons of each website instead of the first letter?Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks for a great review!
Re favicons: no, not easily (https://github.com/tborychowski/perfect-home/issues/37#issuecomment-546635708).
I could only show 16x16px favicons, which would look ugly when resized to e.g. 128px.
I'm planning to show more than 1 letter though. Probably something like opera does in their speeddial. Stay tuned!
