I found this article today on a Linkedin group I joined called Communication Arts (posted by Jeff Couturier) about 10 very cool Firefox add-ons for web designers.

I was familiar, and used a few of them, but the new ones I found here will become hugely valued additions to my workflow. I can already say after just a few hours that I can hardly remember how I got along without ColorZilla!

1. Firebug + Firecookie + Codeburner
2. Web Developer Toolbar
3. Measure It
4. Colorzilla
5. CSS Viewer
6. Screengrab
7. Gridfox
8. Firefox Accessibility Extension
9. User Agent Switcher
