No matter what site/page I'm on when I try to use Firefox Screenshots it tells me that it's "disabled in Private Browsing Mode." How do I get it to work?

Can't get it to work? Firefox Screenshots currently will not work in Private Browsing or if you have Firefox set to Never Remember History. We are working to fix this for future releases.

Still being worked on.

Maybe use the builtin developer toolbar feature instead.
