		<description><![CDATA[Finding accessibility add-ons for Firefox can be tricky. There is no add-on category for accessibility. Different searches yield different add-one. I have blogged about my favorite add-ons, but not everyone reads this blog. So I have put together all the accessibility related add-ons that I use inot one &#8216;collection&#8216;, a new way to group add-ons on the official Firefox add-on site. This new collection, Accessible Firefox: Accessibility Add-ons, includes Noise, NoSquint, Accessibar and Image Zoom. You can read more about these add-ons and other internet accessibility tips on my Web Access page. Apparently, I was not the first person to think of this. There is the Low Vision collection and the Firefox Accessibility Add-ons collection as well. If you have suggestions, please share. If you find this post useful or interesting, please consider buying me a cup of coffee.Related Posts:Access the Web!Scroll Wheel Image ZoomFirefox ThemesAccess Firefox: Because the Internet is for everyone.Image Zoom : Firefox Add-on]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Image Zoom is one of my favorite Firefox accessibility extensions. In Access the Web!, I extolled the virtues of this little program. Image Zooma allows you to zoom an image in and out while it stays in place. There is no need to open it up in another window or to download it. Image Zoom inserts an option onto the context (right-click) menu where you can select the right level of zoom. Image Zoom has another very cool new feature, Scroll Wheel Zooming. While holding the right mouse button down, you can zoom in and out with the scroll wheel on your mouse. If you have Image Zoom installed, you can test this out with the Image Zoom icon here. If you find this post useful or interesting, please consider buying me a cup of coffee.Related Posts:Image Zoom : Firefox Add-onAccess the Web!Accessible Firefox: A Collection of Accessibility Add-onsWeb AccessWeb Access]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is no need to take the web as it comes. Fonts too small to read, color schemes that make you squint, bright white backgrounds that scream for you sunglasses, images too small to make out. These issues can be solved. You can take control. Changing colors, fonts and image size is no longer requires a degree in computer science. It takes more that a single click of the mouse, but it can be you can make your web experience. Many of the things I will say here are echoed in the AccessFirefox.org web site. While AccessFirefox.org attempts to be universal, I will highlight here just the few things I think you will need. The first is Firefox. If you are reading this in Microsoft&#8217;s default Internet Explorer or even in Apple&#8217;s Safari, download Firefox and install it now. Firefox, which is built by volunteers and is free, allows developers to build and distribute software add-ons that allow us to customize our web experience. With just t three of these add-ons, your web experience will be transformed and your sore eyes grateful. No Squint The No Squint add-on is my personal favorite. Once installed, this extension allows you to set [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To continue the theme of useful Firefox extensions, I also find myself using Image Zoom all the time. This extension adds another option to the context menu (the one that pops up when you use the right click button). With it installed, you have the option to increase the size of the image (i.e. zoom in) right there in the web page. You don&#8217;t have to copy and paste it into another program or open it in its own page, you can just zoom in right there. Very useful! In particular, I find it useful when shopping (either in Amazon or eBay) and the accompanying image is just too small to make out. Now I right-click on the image and zoom in. I have also found it useful on those DIY project pages when the illustrations are just too tiny to help. Some images do not have good resolution, so, when you zoom in, the image &#8216;pixelates&#8217; and becomes blurry. But that is not Image Zoom&#8217;s fault. Give it a try. You will like it. If you find this post useful or interesting, please consider buying me a cup of coffee.Related Posts:Scroll Wheel Image ZoomAccess the Web!Dimensions d&#8217;IstanbulWeb AccessWeb Access]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Having just moved to a new computer, I have been installing software and making the system more accessible. In trying to find all the little ways to make Firefox more accessible, I ran across this website, AccessFirefox.org. They do a remarkable job of collecting all the Firefox themes ans extensions that help make Firefox a superior browser for ease of use. My favorite so far is Accessibar, which adds a toolbar to the top of the screen that allows you to control the text size and the colors of each website. The large icon themes are also quite useful. The one item that is missing right now is No Squint. With the latest version of Firefox, No Squint allows you to control the full zoom and text zoom of each website. What is particularly useful is that it remember the particular setting for each site. I find that different websites require different adjustments, depending on the amount of text vs. images and how many columns the site has. Accisbar allows you to adjust font sizes, but is not site specific and has no &#8216;memory&#8217;. I will recommend that AccessFirefox add No Squint to their list. Do you know of any [...]]]></description>
