Can one pin all items from the bookmark toolbar to the Windows 7 Taskbar Quicklaunch icon?

Is it possible to have the favorites toolbar displayed as 'pinned favorites' on the Windows 7 Taskbar? I know I can just drag an favorite from the Favorites Toolbar to the Firefox Quicklaunch icon, but it looks really ugly; It shows the default Firefox favicon with the web address partially displayed instead of the name I have given it on the Bookmarks Toolbar.

Is there a way to preserve the favicon, and have the Favorites name displayed instead?

Thanks in advance!


Regards,

Nick.

These Firefox Addons solves your Problem.

Removes text associated with your bookmarks and folders and gives you placement controls over bookmarks extending the functionality and usability of the Bookmarks Toolbar. Your Bookmarks Toolbar is now very Roomy and Smart!

Heloo,

thanks for the swift reply!

That does not resolve my issue. My bookmarks toolbar is already nice and tidy. (Screenshot)

What I am talking about, is getting them the same on the Windows 7 Taskbar. They now look like this.

The example shown is the address of my GMail inbox. I would like to have it just show "GMail inbox" for example, instead of the url it is referring to, with the GMail favicon.
