I was websurfing today and came across this page, where dreamcore has had the wonderful idea of turning the basic StumbleUpon icons into buttons that you can add to your Bookmarks (or Favorites). Simply drag each button that you want up to your Bookmark bar:

The beauty of this is that it allows you to use StumbleUpon on computers where you wouldn’t be able to add a toolbar, ie. work, school, or other public computers. Plus, he included my favorite part of Strangej and Thlayli’s StumbleUpon Add-on Toolbar, the rating selection option. If you’re like me, and usually keep your settings on SU set to G, being able to switch easily to R to visit someone else’s page is a great addition. If you do normally keep your ratings set to G, I would recommend adding both G and R to your bookmarks if you use this. That way you can force a change back to G without resetting anything or restarting your browser.

There are some other great options in the Add-on Toolbar if you don’t mind adding another toolbar to Firefox. It includes the ability to go to a random archive page, back up your SU blog, Advanced photoblog, and a box to type in the name of a SU user and go to their blog.

Thanks for this Te-ge. It is useful to know about the ratings as I have always wondered about that. and I love the new theme. Looks great!
