Chat emoticons and smileys - FaceMoods 
Add-on that extends your facebook with animated smileys. It adds a smiley-button into your Facebook chat. When you click it - extended list of emoticons will appear. You can then choose an emoticon that you want to send to your friend and submit it. This reminds me of the good-old isq emoticons. =) You can also somehow send smileys via Facebook. I mean post to profiles and stuff like that. Try it out - it's completely free and still not a malware. =) You can check it online if you don't trust me. I checked it via VirusTotal and NONE of, like, 40 antiviruses showed a bad thing about this plugin. So be sure - it's safe and secure.

Firefox script plugins/addons for facebook
A lot of facebook plugins listed below don't work, but as I suggest that facebook is a crap, I don't really use facebook a lot, and so I didn't test all of them. Just the part. And I didn't research that stuff a lot. So if you'll find some facebook plugins listed here not working, or if you'll find some more handy facebook scripts, or addons - e-mail to me (you can find my mail in the bottom of the page), please. And I'll most likely delete them from the list (in the first case), or post them here (in the second case). Enjoy =)

Remember that facebook addons, plugins and scripts only change the way facebook looks on your own computer.
Motivation of addons and plugins
Today over 200 million people 200 million people a day log on to Facebook. If you are here - most likely you are one of them.
It's not hard to see that the way Facebook looks and it's functionality, usability and design surely can't really satisfy even 70% of the people that use it.
That default complicated and spammy FB layout, facebook chat that parses only several smileys as images, and stuff like that.
Maybe this site
isn't the one to complain, but I've seen whole lot better ones for sure.. Like "vk.com". I like it way more.
That's why I've listed those plugins you can install to make your Facebook time more comfortable.
