This is a theme I'm working on based on these mockups by Stephen Horlander. Mostly everything is working so far including the conditional forward-button. I still need a name, any ideas? I'm currently just using the name 'Strata Austra'.

Also feel free to post comments based on the implementation of the style, not the style it self as I didn't create it.

As usual you are faster than Mozilla in making a working skin from their mockups :D

Thanks :cool: You could say I cheated a bit because I had access to the PSD.

Is it possibly to make this available for OS X too?

I will attempt to make a Mac OS version as well. I'm just not sure if I can move the elements into the titlebar.

Give the first alpha a try and let me know how it goes guys. Expect bugs, lots and lots of bugs.

To use the conditional forward button:

  • Open Customize Toolbar dialog
  • Drag a 'space' between 'forward' and 'urlbar'

To move the tabs into the titlebar use https://addons.mozil...ys-in-titlebar/

the curved tabs are really strange... it does bring a lot of attention to the tabs and I don't know if that is a good thing.

and I will note please do not use this with stratiform it made it look really funny! I LOLed.

No forward button?

There is, unless you go with the Tabs Always in Titlebar addon and the other steps. RemixedCat's screenshot shows how it appears otherwise. It looks like the standard Firefox theme but with the new tabs, which I really like.

Is it possible to get this theme as a script for the userChrome.css instead. That way I could get the default Firefox button back.

When you say default do you mean normal size when maximized? Other than that it is the same button.

My tabs don't appear in the titlebar? :unsure: Do I need to do that manually or is something else wrong?

    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.

      I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
