deviantBROWSING feature set

~FiberFiend:iconFiberFiend: reports, January 10, 2007
As I've been on dA, I've been slowly accumulating various extensions, scripts, and other doohickies that make browsing even greater and more customized. In this article I hope to introduce to you (or remind you of, perhaps) some of these things that particularly stand out to me.
The first important thing (that is actually required for several of the features here) is to Get Firefox. It's just better than IE. Yeah yeah, the new IE has tabs too, but Firefox STILL has extensions, skins, and is generally more customizable, which is what this article is about.
Enough talk, on to the features!


Journal Related (CSS templates, tutorials, and other sundry goodies)
I have to say, my favorite journal skins I've seen are from ¢mynti, =ipholio, and *Lilyas. They're classy, simple, creative, and just great-looking.


There are also many great journal-related tutorials and other tools out there, such as:




deviantEXPERIENCE
Okay, this just needs its own category. =dancewiththesky has, I kid you not, utterly transformed the way I browse dA. An AMAZING set of extensions to, among other things: browse galleries (even non-subscribers!) with unlimited amounts of thumbs on the page, bring news to the message center, and easily perform an advanced search! Here's the whole series (so far) for your pleasure:



General Browsing
....this thing is a miracle. It displays your message count in the status bar at the bottom of the Firefox window, and is also a link to the message center! A godsend for those of us who obsessively check for new messages. :blush:

And two great extensions by =ayembee



Greasemonkey Scripts
These require the Greasemonkey Firefox extension.

Other fun/interesting/cool stuff

This is a great skin for dAmn that v5-ifies it. Note: requires Stylish Firefox extension.


Well, I hope you've enjoyed this article, and hopefully discovered something new. If you think there's something that I missed that should have been featured here, feel free to link in the comments. Just check other people's to make sure it hasn't already been given, we don't want duplicates now!

1) Okay, all you need to do, is goto: [link]
2) Hit [Install Now >]
3) Then restart firefox.
4) Go to which ever version you choose (v5 is full version one, v4.5 is the v5 header with the old coloured chat area.)

5) click the button that says: "Load into Stylish"
6) A window will come up, Hit the save button.
7) refresh dAmn, and your done.

Upgrading:

1) Right Click on the little paper icon in the statusbar
2) It'll bring up a menu. Select "Manage Styles", it should be the top one.
3) A window will appear, there shall be buttons along the bottom.
4) Click on "Find Updates", this Will bring up yet another window.
5) Click update All.
6) All updates should now be done.

And that Covers Installing, and Updating styles.
