The alternative posted there is really bad compared to your develpment!

Re: [EXT] Download Status Bar
Hello, users!
Have not seen you for a long time
I have long waited for someone to make a beautiful downloadbar...
but unfortunately there is only one not beautiful version:
https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/wx-dow ... tatus-bar/
I'm tired of waiting and started porting my addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/s3download-statusbar/
ahead is a long and difficult road, but here is an example of a screenshot of the beta version
I hope that I will be able to finish what I started and in one or two weeks I will show the world my new release
please feel free to ask all the questions in this topic:

Re: [EXT] Download Status Bar
I hope you are successful with your project pag77. However I can't agree with your comment that John Wensley's is lacking, yes it's not as slick as the original version we had but as far as I'm concerned John is doing a good job with the tools he has available.

Re: [EXT] Download Status Bar
Download Status Bar is not found on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... r/?src=api if you are still running Firefox 52.9 ESR where can you get the addon? Last one I have "Download Status Bar 15.0.0.1" (Aug 10, 2018) by "Szalgiris" - just curious.

Re: [EXT] Download Status Bar
Just curious what inspired the "S3" in add on name "Download Status Bar (S3)" - does it have some meaning or relation to Amazon S3?pag77 wrote: ..
