Nice addition to the other reverse image search plugins of Tineye, Gazopa, Yandex and Cydral).
I would have removed the Tineye search which has a better plugin of its own with advanced options, and make it a Baidu serach only, with favicon in the context menu and the context menu title "Search Image on Baidu" to match the other plugins.
I would also put the description and title in this page in English, to make it universal.

Mouse Gestures Redox

notice the last version is available at:
http://www.mousegestures.org/installation/
Currently the two alternatives (FireGestures and All-in-One Gestures) has a mouse-flickering problem for the current version of Firefox (I use Firefox 3.6.13 on windows 7 Ultimate 32bit). This add-on doesn't cause mouse flicker, but it has a problem with the right-click context menu, that appears when you use rocker (click) gestures. My solution was to to disable the rocker gestures and used this AutoHotkey script for them instead:

Image Context Menu Options

No need to leave a page anymore to view resized image in its original size. I use it to complement "Text To Image" where this option is missing.

Adding to the previous review, this extension's homepage says it is designed for Vista (as well as MAC and Linux) but not XP, which might explain the various bags and prevent me and others from using it.

Truly an essential for me, to mark were each image came from for reference, this extension gave me hope and frustration.
Using Firefox 2.0.0.14, after a short while the Save Image As option stopped working, until the extension was removed. The inclusion of selected text in the meta information never worked.
Its also not clear why the thing has to weight 3MB, nor the necessity of the black window that popped with each save (when it did work). Also, why the meta information isn't saved as standard gif comments for example, that are displayed in ever image viewing program.
Still I would have bear all this, if the extension would continue working.

Flags

I'm a bit prejudiced as I helped with this extension graphics, but I did it out of enthusiasm to its idea. The country name is now shown in a tooltip and icons were changed to the same size for better visual experience.
Use together with Show Location or Flagfox to get visual impression of both country TLD and server location, which are often different. Organize Status Bar will help you set their (and other statusbar icons) relative location.

Link Reporter

Finally a solution to see both image Alt atributes (when titles are missing) and link destination (when the statusbar is all cluttered up) along with their titles, in a nice way.

I was messing with Greasemonkey scripts for an hour or two and then found this extension that does just what needed. I use it together with Link Alert (set to show 3 pixels higher) and so get both quick visual report of the destination and detailed report in the tooltip.
I would have added some customization to the display, like for the font sizes, and an option to show the images filenames beside their title/alt attributes.

For me, it didn't hide the disabled cut/copy/paste/delete when right-clicking an input field. Maybe because I use Menu Manipulator.

SwitchProxy Tool

The most convenient of all proxy extensions to simply select from multiply proxies from the statusbar.
A small flaw is that sometimes when extensions update, it thinks its not compatible with the current Firefox version and should be installed again. Preferences are kept however during this procedure.

No longer a need to drag a bookmark again and again in order to move her in a long Bookmarks menu.
Fixes also the redundant arrows in the Context menu when no scroll is needed.

This is the most convenient currency converter so far, and work perfectly for me. Exchange rates updates at will, you can chose your default currency to convert to and original currencies to consider, and the new currency shows near the old one in the page itself.
The statusbar icon take too much space, but can be hidden. Make sure to uncheck the "Round Numbers above 10" in the preferances, to avoid rounding the converted sum above the decimal point.
