My bookmarks used to be the width of the letters used to make them, so I abbreviated many of them to 2 or 3 digits to see a lot at once. Now bookmarks appear to have a minimum space that's way too wide for me unless they have a favicon or a folder before them.

How do I shrink the ordinary bookmarks that may be "*AV" or "ABC"? There seems to be a lead space that is the width of a tab.

This is a deal breaker for me. I would switch back to 3.6 because of this.

You can right click a bookmark on the Bookmarks Toolbar and change the name in the Properties.

Thanks for that tip - I didn't know you could do that and it will save me time.

However, it doesn't change the width of the bookmark. FF4 still allows all that space in front of the name! I have had to go off and create favicons for each of my WP blogs in order to remove that excess space in the toolbar.

That looks like bookmarks without a favicon.

You can remove all favicons with this extension:

Thank you! That's going to do the trick.
