+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted October 26, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted October 26, 2009 Found via Planet Mozilla: First mockups of the Linux theme/UI refresh for Firefox 3.7 and 4.0. The screenshots show how they're aiming to make the Linux version look similar to the Windows and the Mac OS X version.

Tech Star Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Looks good, I actually like the brown in the 4.0 mockup. :yes: Hopefully someone can port it to Windows if it releases like the mockup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozgeek Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Can they make the back and forward buttons consistent please. I want both back and forward buttons the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasethebase Reporter Posted October 26, 2009 Reporter Share Posted October 26, 2009 Can they make the back and forward buttons consistent please. I want both back and forward buttons the same. Why so? You use back more than forward, thus making the back larger is quite a sensible design choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BajiRav Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 That color scheme is fugly :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozgeek Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Because it makes the toolbar it's located on taller. That color scheme is fugly :x that's just the VS of the OS it's running on - likely ubuntu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkl Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Looks nice but I can't say I'm a fan of combining the google search bar with awesomebar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted October 26, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted October 26, 2009 I love the colour scheme there. In fact, I'd like to use that as a theme. :p Make it so! BTW the forward and back buttons are almost the same size (the arrows), it's just ones circle shaped, and one isnt. Isn't that much of an issue is it?

GreenMartian Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Because it makes the toolbar it's located on taller. I'm sure you can turn on small icons, just like you could since the early days of firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+M2Ys4U Subscriber¹ Posted October 26, 2009 Subscriber¹ Share Posted October 26, 2009 tabs on top is a stupid decision. It's one of the reasons I use Firefox and not Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2687 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Want. I don't care if the tabs are on the top or the bottom. It's only like 15 pixels of mouse movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkNovaGundam Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 tabs on top is a stupid decision. It's one of the reasons I use Firefox and not Chrome. That is your opinion. My opinion is its a great decision, I prefer them on the top. Even though I'm all for tabs-on-top I believe Chrome should offer the ability to switch it to the way firefox has it right now. But on top by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stetson Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Looks good except for the orange color used in the icons. I understand going with the system colors but using it at such a high saturation seems a bit off. The Mac/Windows variants just use a dark shadow for that area. I think it would work if they really desaturated that inner icon color or made the shadow on it stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I like the idea of moving the progress bar/throbber onto the tab itself, instead of the address bar or the toolbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
