On the new, not-improved bookmark icon, it takes me 3 clicks to get to my list of directories. I don't need or want just the sites I've visited most recently, and I don't want any of the other jazzy options. I have a whole lot of directories and subdirectories, and I want to have access to them all simultaneously, even if I haven't visited all of them in the last couple days.

To get access now, I have to click the bookmark icon, then click "Bookmarks," and then, finally, click "Show all bookmarks" just to see my bookmarks--which used to come up on the first click. And if I've gone to a link and then want to go to another one, I have to do that all over again.

How can I get total access again on the first click? Or, can you please, Mozilla people, change the system back to the way it was before? Why do you think people only want to see their most recent links?

Please provide a screen shot of your open Bookmarks from the Toolbar.

If you did not know you can drag URL's from the address bar and drop them into the space right under the address bar. You can also make Folders there and the list can be large mine runs off the Bookmark Toolbar and some arrows are there and click the arrow and open up the rest of my quick list.

You can drag back the Bookmarks menu from the Customization palette. Click on an empty space in the tab strip then Customize. Find the bookmarks menu and drag it out wherever you want
