Favicon issues in Aurora 13

I know there used to be a way to manually manage favicons in Firefox for Mac, but I am now using Aurora 13.0a2, and the favicon picker extension no longer works. Is there a way to manually change or manage the favicons still? Where are they stored (OS 10.7)? I have some 20 sites in my toolbar, and 95% of them have innate favicons in their programming, so I can delete the bookmark name and just click on the favicon alone in my toolbar. However, several of my key sites have no favicon in their programming--I want to add one so that I can remove the names, and thus gain a ton more space back to my bookmarks toolbar. Is there a way to do this? Help! (ALSO, is there any way to make a second bookmarks toolbar appear, just below the first one, for doubling of space?)

THANKS! I still want to be able to add favicons to the bookmarks that don't have any in their source code, but this is a huge help and solves the space issue right away!
