This is the only addon I know of that has toolbar buttons for all the Firefox menu bar functions and sub-functions and I loved it up to the last revision. Unfortunately, when this extension was updated to version 1, all the buttons were changed to a hideously counterintuitive design (small, tiny busy details, confusing, almost identical colors and shapes so that it became impossible to distinguish between buttons at a glance). Sadness; I had to stop using this extension. However, I recently discovered the StrataM 4 theme which is a simple theme which ONLY changes the color, size and design of the Firefox toolbar buttons, replacing replace them with slightly larger, more colorful, clear and intuitive buttons. StrataM 4 works great with Toolbar buttons 1.0 in Firefox 12; where there are buttons in both packs, the StrataM buttons are used - this means I don't have to put up with the awful default buttons in Toolbar Buttons 1.0, but can still use the unique buttons I like from the Toolbar Buttons 1.0 pack - additionally, StrataM enlarges those unique buttons to a normal size so that they match with the StrataM theme. Even with this improvement, most of the unique Toolbar Buttons 1.0 buttons are still too counterintuitive for easy use, but this makes a few key buttons available to me so win win for now.
