Would you consider open sourcing this?

There is repository on http://code.google.com/p/grabthemall/ and source code is there.

Love the plugin.
Could you make it so you can set a minimum timeout in the options (so you can ensure there’s enough time to load all the ajax requests etc.)?

Thanks for building this – I know that it will help me to keep easy backup copies of designs.

Hey rzelazko, I love your add-on. xD.
I use GTA to grab images that I need for my work, but, I have a problem: the website where the images are uses JS to scale them. Uhm, I got your source code, but I’m a novice on XUL & JS, could you help me?
My idea is generate an automatic click before the screenshoot to open the image in real size and then do screenshoot. Could you tell me in wich file .js add the Automaticclick(); before the screenshoot??
Thank you!

Love this add-on. It has made some of the work I have to do so much easier. Everything works great but sometimes it captures just a small 1k image from the site which i think is caused when I minimize the capture window. Thank you!!

It produces black pages at times. http://www.cheetos.com for instance(even after giving the animation enough to time to load)

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! AFIAK your extension is the only tool that will grab screens from a list of URLs. Keep up the great work and thank you again.

Good job!
I suggest it must to to support more report file format, such as .txt (columns separate by tab), so it will more easier to analyze.

Many of the pages that I attempt to use this plugin to capture with a screenshot are captured with the background entirely BLACK making the screenshot unusable.
September 10th, 2009 at 20:46
I have also started to get black background screenshots. Thankfully it is just the page background so I am still able to make out the rest of the image. Any thoughts why this may be happening now? Recent FF update break something?
Thanks again.

It is not a problem with FF, but an error in GrabThemAll. Currently I do not have enough time to fix it.
