[zhangm Supervisor]

I hope they are going to fix the problem with the icons in the dl manager.

I think they already did. What's your build info?

[Hidea]

actually.. that new pinstripe for Win XP is no where close the OS X! :D so it's GOOD! :D

Just the milestone, I don't deal with the nightlies.

[zhangm Supervisor]

Well, now you know, its been fixed, and works nicely in Aviary.

they should inplement icandy jr. as the default theme :D

j/k i know it isn't "professional" looking but i like 0.8 theme better than 0.9

Trying one of the latest nightlies right now, and it seems really neat. Too bad I had to nuke my profile for it to work.

profile location changed, that's why:

How come FireFox doesn't have the same MODERN theme built into it like Mozilla does? It is a great theme and I had thought they would have the same themes at least by default.

[King Trode]

Can't wait! I love firefox.

i think it used to, and its also ugly.

I think it rocks. It is so small I don't see why they can't include it at least. I don't really like the direction Firefox is going. I think I'll stick with Mozilla. But I hope people who do like Firefox are happy with it.

why do you care? you can alwas download any theme you want? mozilla is just a "bloated" version of firefox. firefox and thunderbird are the perfect combo IMO,

same here :yes:

now this looks good.

Don't wanna fight dude. I'm just saying I like Mozilla better, that's all. If you like FireFox that is cool too. :)

as long as it aint IE ;)

[Yakuzing]

cool sounds good, iv'e only been using firefox for a short time (since just efore the rename) and it's really exciting watching it progress and shape up to be a truley awsome browser.

umm... it have always been the best :rofl:

[Bearded Kirklander]

The best browser is the one that you prefer. :)

Now, lets not fight. Lets talk about how good looking some chicks are when you call them up in whatever browser you use. :D

[Veedems Veteran]

new theme has been checked in.

[Ficman]

I have been using the .8 version seems ok, a few pages have issues not looking right... Other than that seems ok... :cool:

Alright everybody good news. Release Dates are getting a little bit clearer now.. Ben has posted exact dates for rc1 and the final.. A little bit more certain this time.

http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.ph...94e68848ed661df

Firefox 0.9 RC1 is expected on 2004-06-08

Firefox 0.9 Milestone is expected on 2004-06-14

Yes, the themes (Win/Linux) are changing again (for legal reasons).

Windows has a new theme as of today.

I would appreciate if you would NOT discuss what you hate/like about them in this thread.

If you don't like the new ones, replace it with another theme (as soon as that option properly works).

Firefox 0.9 Shaping Up

I haven't posted for a while because I've been very busy with the 1.0 Branch, the 0.9 bug list, and other things. Here are some updates:

* The new Extension Manager is working quite well. I've fixed a few bugs but it seems there's nothing showstopping so far. Please continue to test this feature on the branch, and file bugs and nominate for .9 if you run into any problems.

* I've been charging through the 0.9 bug list and now it's down to 8 blocking0.9+ bugs. If you know of any serious bugs that you think should block this release, please nominate them!

* The updated products site and release notes are pretty much ready.

A request - please focus extension testing efforts on the branch builds, none of this is enabled on the trunk yet due to code review delays so by using the trunk you're wasting your time since that's not the code we're going to be shipping with 0.9 or 1.0

Looking at the list.. the last of the branch bugs are beginning to be squashed! Hooray! :laugh: :D

Anyways go to that thread for more info.. the 6-7-04 builds will be out in a few hours.. Im excited about today's build.. it looks like a good build..
