Add-on to direct downloads to specific folders for specific sites?

I was wondering if there was an addon which for an example: I download a picture or file from Facebook, it'd be placed in a folder named Facebook in my Downloads folder or whichever folder I choose.

Because I download a lot of stuff and I'm a organization freak, so I hate having to "Save as..." navigate to folder, then download, then rinse and repeat. So is there an Addon which I can choose where downloads go from specific sites? I see Chrome has one, but sadly FireFox seems to not have one. :(

Can you give me the link to the addon you are pointing which chrome has? It might help me find you out something of that sort for firefox.

Automatic Save Folder {web link} This add-on will open the File Browser at the right location, using simple filters on the downloaded file. The filters are based on filenames and hosted domain's name. WARNING ! May not work with other downloader programs.

There may also be others Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
