These bookmarks are restricted to a single row in all current browsers, which is problematic if your list of favorite sites is longer and won't fit in this row. The only way to add another line to the Bookmarks toolbar is with the use of browser extensions. As of August 2013, the only two browsers featuring extensions to expand the Bookmarks toolbar are Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.
