Firefox 0.9.1 Beta

some nice improvements on the new theme. No comment on the navigation-buttons(they still look cheap - and with cheap i do not mean simple - simpleness is nice, imho). The bookmark icon imho is a good idea but carried out in a less good manner. It always takes me multiple looks to recognize whats it's trying to display - should probably be shown "more from the side"... so, more 3d - not from the front and not from the side, but instead something in between.

Looks like all the buttons in the nav bar have been improved upon!

Ah after seeing the bookmark icon in camino, now I understand the winstripe bookmark icon :D

I am using Mostly Crystal and latest Qute, but at my parent's house I could sneak in Fx 0.9 using Firesomething and the <a href="http://www.intraplanar.net/projects/lunablue/">Luna Blue</a> theme. Just modify/customize it a bit to mimic IE6 (results at <a href="http://entresequiser.blogspot.com">my blog</a>)

No one really noticed everything except the sudden lack of pop-ups and spyware. :badgrin:

Where do you find Noia 2.66? I'm running 2.63 and can't locate an update.

Let alone the icons, did they reduce the toolbar (vertical) width? 0.9 default doesn't look good in "text only" mode IMO.

The drag bar isn't working when Noia 2.66 is used with Fx 0.9.1

Sadly, the OS X nightly of 0.9.1 still has the old (0.9) theme, I guess the Mac version is lagging...

I had no idea what you were talking about. Google is good!
