GameFox Firefox Extension for GameFAQs Download

Author: The Troll

GameFOX is a Firefox extension that makes browsing the GameFAQs Message Boards easier. It offers several useful features, all of which are easily configurable. The most up to date download for GameFOX is here (That IS the site, but it is down sometimes when a new version comes out due to overload). It is supposed to auto-update once you have it, but there have been times it hasn’t for me right away. If you are posting on the boards and notice some functionality not working you may want to go see if a new update is made at that link. Typically it will update right away, but every once in a while it won’t.

Main Features

QuickPost

This adds a form to message and topic lists that lets you quickly reply to a topic, or create a new one without having to go to the Create New Topic/Post New Message page.

Quoting

This feature allows you to quickly quote a message.

GameFAQs Themes

GameFOX allows you to easily change the style with which you view the site. Many stylesheets are provided in the GameFAQs CSS section of this site.

User Highlighting

The User Highlighting feature does exactly that; it highlights the post headers and topics of users you list, and can hide the posts of others.

QuickWhois

QuickWhois allows you to quickly check a user’s profile without leaving the message list.

Other features:

* Manage your Message Board and Site settings from the GameFOX Options menu. This includes setting up your sig so that it will post when you use the “QuickPost” feature. So you can always have your website link up for marketing purposes if you want to make sure your ellipticals site gets some run.

* Compatibility with gfaqs9 and gfaqs.

* GameFOX Sidebar allows you to quickly navigate the site. You can even use this when you aren’t at the GameFaqs site. Very handy. Like a bookmarks panel that goes with you.

* Topic Tagging allows you to keep track of topics easily.

If you post on the GameFAQs boards this is a MUST HAVE extension for Firefox. The other important extension that you will want to have is the Text to Image extension.
