"hello - BloggerBot" sucks!!!
a major peeve of mine are programs that change your browser's toolbars without your consent…
this is how I like my browser's toolbars to look like

I just recently installed "hello - BloggerBot" 'coz it's the program that I 'need' to use in order to post pictures directly into my blog… if I'd known that it would hijack my browser's toolbars, I would've never installed it!
here's what it did:

it brought it back to the default "Standard Buttons" plus added 2 of it's own buttons
it also hijacked the dropdown menu of the "Tools"

oh, and this stupid "hello" program apparently can't allow you to make paragraphs. I have to manually enter paragraphs by loggin' into my blog! plus, everytime you post a photo, it automatically pops-up a new window of your blog; which gets very irritatin' after postin' more than 3 photos in a row!
don't install this program, if you really don't need it! it sucks!!!
another thing I can't stand are 3rd party toolbars…
I've made some minor modifications (to add more viewin' space) but I don't add anything more than the 3 original toolbars:
1) the main drop down menus
2) my customized "Standard Buttons" are at "No text labels" (why have the labels, when they become visible, if you hoover over the icons) & "Small icons" (for more space)
3) the "Address Bar" without the "Links"
my reason for keeping it down to 3 is 'coz I'd like to see more of the viewin' space on my limited size monitor…
check these toolbars from hell
thanks to JayJDC's phlog post for introducin' it to me…
