New Tab Tools

About

This add-on replaces you "new tab" page with what is essentially a clone of the new tab page from Firefox version 30. It also adds functionality for adding, modifying and hiding tiles, as well as a variety of customisations.

Releases

A new release is usually made about every two weeks. This could be earlier if a bug urgently needs fixing, or later if I'm busy with other things or no new changes are ready for release.

Released versions can be downloaded from https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/

Contribute money

Add-ons are available for free, but developing and supporting them does take a considerable amount of time. Please consider making a donation to help me pay my bills. You can contribute any amount you like through PayPal. (Note though that for amounts smaller than about US$1, PayPal takes most of it.)

You can also send BitCoin if you prefer. See the same link for an address.
