Is there a way to make FF antialias text? I have cleartype/antialiasing disabled on Windows because I think it looks awful. Chrome and IE have their own antialiasing.

It's becoming a greater annoyance as more and more websites use those google fonts that looks completely whack without antialiasing.

Because Firefox uses Direct2D to render text, if you have ClearType disabled Firefox will not be able to antialias text. If ClearType doesn't look good to you there is likely a problem with your monitor or its connection to your system. If you can't correct the issue with your monitor then you may be able to work around it using the ClearType Tuner.

IE's antialiasing method is identical to system antialiasing, if you don't mind how it looks in IE I can't fathom why you have ClearType turned off. Chrome's method is also very close to standard ClearType.

No it isn't at least not on Windows 8.

On 8 and beyond IE uses a greyscale only smoother not proper ClearType. This makes IE eye-bleeding bad on lowish DPI monitors - completely unusable for anything with small text.

IE's anti-aliasing is hilariously awful, and the font they use for the default msn homepage is a thin sans serif that looks like a hot blurry mess.

Windows 8 doesn't use subpixel antialiasing at all -- they couldn't figure out how to make it work when you rotate your tablet.

Spek: Jun 15, 2012; Bagel!

On that topic does anyone know of an extension or something that just lets the user replace a font for all pages you open with Firefox? Like, always replace "Proxima Nova" with "Verdana" on every page you visit from now until the end of time.

I despise all font smoothing and the growth in popularity of fonts that don't render properly without it has just made me turn off websites' ability to use custom fonts. But that breaks formatting on many sites. I'd love to be able to just highlight a block of text and tell Firefox to always replace the font the selected text is using with a different one.

I've tried a couple plugins that said they could do this but they either didn't work at all or didn't remember the changes so you had to replace the font every time you load a page.

To be fair, the point of subpixel antialiasing is that you get higher horizontal resolution, so that's meaningless if the tablet is rotated.

The hilarious part is that this is apparently the behavior on desktops as well.

That isn't quite true either (at least on my laptop)
- IE content = greyscale
- IE toolbars/menus etc = subpixel smoothed
- All of metro = greyscale
- All of the desktop (Windows explorer etc) = subpixel
- Some parts of Office 2013 are greyscale, others old style subpixel ClearType

The overall effect is it looks like an inconsistent, broken, unfinished mess :/

Spek: Jun 15, 2012; Bagel!

On the other hand if you prefer to disable font smoothing Windows 8 is a nice improvement. In Windows 7 you could turn off font smoothing everywhere possible in the OS and still have smoothed fonts all over the place, unless you also turned on Windows Classic Mode(which breaks V-Sync on non-exclusive mode directX programs) or installed a series of hacks to something like 3 different windows .dlls and a bunch of registry tweaks.

On Windows 8 turning off "Smooth the edges of screen fonts" and Cleartype actually gets rid of font smoothing almost everywhere other then the Metro stuff.

That isn't true either - IE still stubbornly uses greyscale only smoothing

isndl: May 2, 2012; I WON A CONTEST IN TG AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS CUSTOM TITLE

I can't seem to remove the UI element \"menubar-items\" (the File, Edit, View, etc. menu buttons) - I can manually remove it from prefs.js, but Firefox adds it back in on launch. I have the orange Firefox button that includes all the menus, so I don't need them duplicated and taking up space. I've tried Googling but it's turning up nothing but garbage results.

I have Classic Theme Restorer installed but after fiddling with it, nothing helps. Disabling CTR didn't seem to do anything useful. As far as I can tell, the only other add-on I have that messes with the UI is Status-4-Evar.

Right click on the tab bar and click "menu bar" to disable it.

That eliminates the entire bar, which has all my navigation buttons and such. Kinda forced into keeping it around because I'm using the 'no title bar' setting which merges the menu bar into the title bar.

I guess the answer is to find another add-on that lets me use a different bar in the title bar instead?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, I'm using the no titlebar setting in Classic Theme Restorer as well and I have no menu bar but still have navigation buttons.

Tabs on bottom are maybe the problem? ~~Although setting it back to tabs on top in CTR doesn't seem to be having any effect, so maybe there's something broken in general.~~ e: Nevermind, forgot that tabs on top/bottom are relative to the normal address bar location.

It's been pretty find at work where I use a monitor, I want to darken the bg now that I'm on my laptop. There's a good chance I end up just completely emulating the dark theme from the awful iOS app.

Does anyone know a good extension for replacing individual images on a site?

There are a number of users here with horrible flashing avatars and I'd love to set them to a static version without losing the ability to quickly identify that user.

You could do it with stylish. Rule keyed off src attribute, set the content property.

Animated gifs distract me in general; I use SuperStop to allow me to stop them.

I use Toggle animated GIFs and couldn't imagine Firefox without it. Having a pause and rewind button on all gifs (on mouseover) is incredible.

It'd just be nice to pause particular gifs permanently.

I think I'll follow Subjunctive's advice and see if I can't Frankenstein together a Stylish script.

Does this stop them from loading/downloading? I'd love something like this if I could load them on demand with a simple click like how most embedded videos don't start until you press play. Seriously some forums people just need to post an endless amount of huge fuckoff sized gifs for no reason and pages end up taking so long to load, stop that.

Click-to-play needs server support to work well, because the browser doesn't know it's a big animated thing until it has loaded at least some of it.

I think this extension might be what you want:

gif Block

"There is a lot of web page that has some Gif files. These file consume users bandwidth. With this add-on users can disable Gif files and avoid them from being appear. however users can change the setting and view the Gif files again."

But I'm not sure how well it actually works.

This is getting really addicting, wish I could do something to the image buttons but it looks like few have unique classes.

EDIT: I have the opacity down on avatars for work, but I can hover them to see 100%.

Care to share that?

Still working on it, has some rough edges and is a disaster outside of threads. CSS is also a nightmare to look at.
