Description
Description: This script will add thumb code collecting capabilities to deviantArt. It is also capable, of sorting thumbs, and sending notes to deviants one has featured in a journal or news article. Use it to collect tons of thumbs for features and forum activities.Shameless self promotion
Installing If you don't already have GreaseMonkey installed on your Firefox, than click here to install it . After you restarted FireFox click here to install ThumbTools. GreaseMonkey will ask if you'd like to install the script, click "install" and enjoy! IMPORTANT If you have Thumbler, or the previous version of ThumbTools installed, un-install it first.
IMPORTANT: If after installing you get the previous version again, than please delete your browsers cache, and try again! This is still a buggy BETA! Please report all errors you may come across!Keep regularly checking the menu! If a new version is released, a new menu item will appear to inform you about that!
Usage Drag your mouse over an image, and copy the thumb code. To collect more thumbs press the + button, and use the "dA Thumbs" button in the "ThumbTools" menu!
PLEASE SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT by visiting my gallery, or donating points.
Developer:
Note on Chrome compatibility: User scripts for Chrome do not allow GM_getValue and GM_setValue, and I'm making extensive use of them in this script! Due to this short coming I do not see a Chrome compatible version in the near future!
Current version > 2.0.32 beta

Buttons on the top are only there when used

Major BUG fix! This won't change anything if you are a moderator at a group! But if you do not moderate any groups, than this will make the script work for you
Version 2.0.32 beta
Two tiny bug fixes
Version 2.0.321 beta
=Dediggefedde has partially restored functionality, after the project and the plugin was dead for about 2 years. Thanks for that!
Next version: The project was dead for 2 years now after I had started to have financial problems. Since than my life returned to normal, but for now I have other pet projects that are more dear to my heart. Also keeping a grease monkey script alive, is a pain if the host site is changing frequently and refuses to provide an API, so it is simply just more work than it's worth. Maybe one day (when the 5th or 6th similar grease monkey with basically the same features gets created, and then abandoned) dA will realize that this feature should be part of their own website, or at least they provide some kind of API. But until than I don't think I have time to take care of this regularly.
Features I wish I could have done:
User definable output styles, Support for HTML and BB codes, support Large tumbs, support :dev: and :icon: codes
handle :print: codes and prints
Saving and loading lists, adding to saved list
Show thumb menu on deviations page too.
Auto-sync selection indicators between windows
Suggest DD
Requirement FireFox, GreaseMonkey
Any other idea is welcome!
If you extend this script, please send it back to me, so I can include it in the next version

Okay... that's odd. Let's go through the possibilities:
- Is Grease monkey properly installed, and enabled? (Check if the monkey face is brown)
- Are all previous versions of both Thumber and ThumbTools uninstalled? (Although this shouldn't matter much.)
- For some reason the deviantArt gateway caused troubles installing for me too! I changed the link in a way, that it takes you to a page, and there you have to click again! Try it again please: [link]
- Did the ThumbTools menu appear now?

Yes, I did all of those things. But the link you just gave me now, worked, so it is installed now. Thanks heaps!

I'm glad it does! Have fun with it!

I have a few suggestions:
- Is it possible to be able to turn on and off the pop up thumb that appears when you hover? It can be quite annoying if you are not planning to use it. Perhaps an option to put in 'Settings'?
- Could you create an option to select multiple thumbcodes like in the original version?
And a question: what is the 'dA thumbs' option supposed to do? I only get an empty pop up when I click it.
Those are my beta thoughts so far.

Thanks for the suggestions!
- The development version already has a disable button.
- Also in the next beta 
- You can add thumbs to a background list by clicking the + button over the thumb code. Clicking dA Thumbs will display the codes from the list.
Check back later today for the new beta! There has been quite a development

Do you have any plans on making it work in v7? I can't live without this script

Yeah! I'll have to do that anyway for myself

Will you write to me when you get it fixed?

It turns out that only my laptop freezes, and the desktop computer is fine with dA 7. (Although I still hate V7) Hopefully I'll have time to fix the plug-in tonight!

It doesn't show the edit button for me, what's up with that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it's doesn't even show up in v7, I'm using the current da. all the other buttons are there, just not the edit one.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah... I know... I didn't have time to modify the script for v7 yet! It's not coming any soon.
As for the missing edit button... I don't know what could be the problem

I think automaticlly saying thank you wouldnt have the magic. The nice thing about saying thank you is that you actually have to click and write and click to say it so it wastes time and through that the person is actually saying thank you...but its just an opinion I admire your thoughts

It appears grease monkey is incompatible with the new version of firefox D:

Use the newer version of grease monkey! I already linked it to someone, so please read back in the comments
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It only shows up after the page is fully loaded. If you have a slower connection, and too many thumbs on one page, than this might take some time. Another possibility is that you have another grease monkey script that conflicts with the Thumbshare Tool.
Thanks for the

lol ive disabled all gm scripts and it still doesnt work after the page is fully loaded, so I'm unfaving it. I read the comment strings with baz, lol... and i think there are too many bugs in this to make it practical. good try though!
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Too many bugs, hah? I just can't get the point why these low skilled, amateur users like you feel in need to write rude comments if they are not clever enough to install such an easy application... 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD good one bro.
if it doesnt work it doesnt work. I installed it according to guidelines, and if it doesn't work, there's a problem with the script or the guidelines. Low skilled amateur? Well obviously! I don't write scripts. The point of these things is for folks who don't write script. However, if it doesn't work, then it's not useable. What's the point of an unuseable script? If I follow the directions exactly and it doesn't work, that means there is bugs. Not held against the writer, it just means that there are problems with it. so what i found a better script. don't take such offense because i reported a bug in someone else's script. You're such a hero, Knife of Dreams.
goodnight, loser. lol you fucking idiot.

Damn... it won't become my most popular deviation... oh... wait... it's already the 3rd, and I'd rather have one of my photos there
BTW I have made this script for MYSELF, and thought it would be nice to share it with other people. Use it at your own risk, and bug fix it, if it doesn't work for you and still wanna use it 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol some other guy got offended too, im not saying that you're a bad person because it didnt work, lol. I appreciate that you provided it for folks, but the sad thign is it didnt work, and even when I tried multiple workarounds based on your guidelines, it still didn't work. Of course it's useless to me in such a situation. Not saying you're a bad person, lol.
i said, good try, but i cant pretend it worked if it didnt, i figured I'd let you know about it. Isn't performance feedback useful?
jesus, i figured that you might appreciate knowing when it doesn't work??? I don't know why, I followed your guidelines perfectly so that's why I am sayign there is a bug, or the guidlines are not comprehensive.
You give someone a car that doesnt drive they'll give it back regardless of your intentions. You don't have to get so offended, it just doesn't work and I figured you might as well know. I'm not attackign your character, holy hell easy up now, boy.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I do appreciate when someone gives feedback
If you'd like we can try to debug together... I just need more information.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be offensive. I apologize for it. Please tell me what info you need and I will try to supply it to you.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay... that's fine
Well... first of all, let's try to find out if the script starts at all. How much do you know about javascripting? (If you know a bit, than I'll tell you what to write into your version of the script, but if you don't, than I'll simply send you a debug version of the script)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well i know enough to find my way around if given directions, but whatever works for you?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Than please try to add "alert('check point #'
window.addEventListener('load', function(event) {
And tell me if any of the two alerts appeared. This should tell us, if the script starts at all, and if the load event is triggered. If they do, than we will move on to debug the body of the function triggered by the load event.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lool... there was a problem when you pasted that... a
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Damn smilies
alert('check point #'); with 1 and 2 instead of #, so that we know how far the script gets
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
says both checkpoint 1 and 2 when the page loads.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay! Than it definitely starts. Try removing the alert lines, and refresh page. Then press CTRL+SHIFT+J, and see if there are any error messages.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Well... than there must be a problem with your internet connection. The problem here is that I can only triger the script with the "page loaded" event, so unless the page is fully loaded it won't show up. If you have a slow connection, than it may take like for ever
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wait, I think I've figured it out. You know the PowerMode script? When you go to your gallery using that ThumbTools doesn't load.
