First, install a plugin called Greasemonkey

Next install a script that does all the wonderful magic.  Facebook Purity

Restart Firefox, and voila.  No more quizzes.  You don’t even have to “Hide” them anymore.

I ran across this fantastic program that is free and works better than anything I had used on my Windows machine. Best of all, it works with Leopard (As well as Windows).

PictureSync

I can’t say enough good things about this application. I works wonderfully and took all of 5 seconds to figure out. It has support for the following popular picture hosts:

Flickr, Fokti, Facebook, Gallery2, photobucket, just to name a few.  Plus FTP and folder uploads.

I have used it on the last few uploads that I have done on my Gallery.  I only wish I would have found it sooner!  I love gallery2, but it really has some sucky batch uploading built in.  This offers your one stop shop for uploaded your pics to multiple hosts. And did I mention it was free*?  See site for the skinny on usage.

Enjoy!  I know I have
