- DownThemAll OneClick!-Button. This Add-On is needed to actually download something.
- Big close button. It closes the tab and logs the job.
- "FlipBox"
- Main controls. Tags currently visible.
DownThemAll (DTA) setup

Setting up DTA correctly is extremely important. Otherwise this whole thing makes no sense at all.
- Change renaming mask from *
name*.*ext* to *text*.ext - Enter "seq-" into Fast Filtering box. Update this if you change file prefix in PictureSelector.
- You know that all works properly, if it looks like this.
You set this up once, and from then on you just hit the DTA-OneClick!-Button.
Recommended Add-Ons
- TabMixPlus
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/1122
... to identify fresh, old, and loading tabs. Set "When tabs don't fit width" to multi-row. See here: http://tmp.garyr.net/help/#Display_-_Tab_bar
- Easy Gestures
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/29
... to have the red dot. I recommend setting "Close Tab" to 6 o' clock. - URL Flipper
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/3572
... to enable going through pages whenever possible. Much better than my FlipBox. - Plain Text to Link
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/623
.... for easier log data export. Unfortunately that one is currently not available for Firefox 3.5.x so you would have to get it from here: http://willshouse.com/2009/08/22/open-with-pttl...
General usage
- Normal way: Start a selection range or open some tabs. On the first one, make your picks. Hit DTA-OneClick!. Hit Close Tab (or [->]-Button). Now the same in the next tab.
- Faster way: If you don't want to store any meta data for later reference at all, set DTA's renaming mask to something like seq-*num*.*ext*. Now the progression of the counter is in DTA's hands, and you can ignore any logging, queues, jobs and items.
Credits
- This script is based on Thumbs only gallery browser. It provided me the clean up of pages and assembly of the items. I added item selectability, range browsing, and "logging" and colors. The "portal" mode, which is one of the 3 modes, is totally unmodified. Thank you very much, thumbs!
Alright, now go ahead and have some fun.
