Syanide Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 In the next months, Mozilla is to probably embrace (probably Q2 2012) a new redesigned default interface, Australis, changing radically various components with attached parts, built-in progressbar, fancy buttons and more. It seems that Thunderbird is also to probably feature the Australis enhancements, thus gaining serious UI refinements, including rounded tabs, slick lines, repositioned toolbar, categorized filters and more. Judging by until-now's Mozilla approach (equally delivering improvements and visual refinements for Linux, Mac and Windows), Ubuntu's Thunderbird will probably benefit the long-awaited changes. Source Saw this just now, and all I can say is: FINALLY. It currently looks like ass, especially on Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaoxt Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The beta isn't so bad really atm for Thunderbird. Not sure if you saw that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syanide Posted March 8, 2012 Author Share Posted March 8, 2012 The beta isn't so bad really atm for Thunderbird. Not sure if you saw that. Using it right now actually. While it's miles ahead of the previous ones, it's still messed up at places (for instance doesn't pick up colors from the custom theme I'm using) and could generally use a makeover.
