Hi Ji@nBing,

Are you asking me about how to put the icons next to the tabs?.

If so you need to drag the closed windows button which looks like

a recycle bin down onto the tab bar and then drag any icons you

to the right of it. If you dont drag them to the right of it they will

go all the way to the left side of the tabs.

cheers

heres mine. as u can see i like as much space for the website as possible. i have a button that brings up the main menu. i do almost everything through mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts. i customised the right click menu with the things i use the most (read feeds, check mail, open closed pages...). i have the clock widget. the skin is meguido.

unless my eyes decieve me, that is ie7 and not opera :pinch:

It is:

- Look at the search field.

- why is the New Tab button missing? (the small tab at the end of all tabs)

- notice how the RSS icon is inside the address bar - IE7 doesn't do that, does it?

- status bar doesn't have 'Internet' or whatever at the end

- there's a trash can

Convinced? :whistle:

How did you get Opera to look exactly like IE7? That's pretty cool.

Alright, here's the steps for getting my setup:

1) Get the skin here. Open the .7z file, and copy the .zip to your skins folder.

2) OPTIONAL: open the skin.ini file in the skin .zip, and add these lines if you want longer tabs:

[Options]
Pagebar max button width	= 225
Pagebar min button width	= 225

3) Grab my toolbar setup below. See the attachment. Note that I took away the RSS icon that stood beside the print toolbar, only because it did virtually nothing.

4) Apply the skin.

5) Hide your menu bar. If you cannot do this, go into Preferences, the Advanced tab, and the Shortcuts category. Edit your current keyboard setup. Select the 'Application' tree, and click New. On the left side, type in: "Platform Windows, F11 alt" and on the right side: "Enable menu bar | Disable menu bar" (in both cases, type without quotes). Click OK, and OK again. Now you can use ALT+F11 to hide/enable the menu bar.

6) If you want to make this setup a bit more like IE, you can go ahead and change the title of Opera to "Windows Internet Explorer" and use the IE7 icon. To do that:

- Exit Opera, and go into your profile folder. Open up opera6.ini

- under [user Prefs] stick in these lines:

Title=Windows Internet Explorer
Application icon=<<PATH TO ICON>>\ie7.ico

- Grab the IE7 icon file below, and place it anywhere (preferably your profile folder). Just change <<PATH TO ICON>> to the name of its folder.

Now you can optionally change the O icon on your quicklaunch/desktop/Start Menu to the E just to fool almost anyone using your computer. :yes:

(side note: I was inspired to take on this layout after seeing this.)

Nice. Will you have a toolbar .ini and modified skin .zip made available somewhere?

edit: I see you posted it in the other thread, but the toolbar.ini ZIP is corrupt. :(

Edited by rm20010

Hi rm20010,

The toolbar.ini in the Three Things forum you need to click on

it and then it will come up asking you to save it.

And in the Opera forum where i posted it also

i could save and open it no problems there either.

Anyway I will post it here if i can again

standard_toolbar__1_.zip

P.S. I noticed when you try to save it ...its stops for some reason but if

you go into the transfer and restart it ....it then seems to save okay.

See how you go anyway.

cheers

    • I agree when are you going to read this (really poor BTW) article?
    • I disagree; they come off very "bitchy" and "whiny". Make a great product and combine that with a great price (free) and people will come over to your side. Or build it and they will come as they say. Constantly trying to get attention by complaining all the time, will turn people off to your product.
    • It use to be a nightmare, with LibreOffice supporting a newer draft ODF standard by default, and Microsoft Office supporting the older non-draft standard. Now that they both support the same version of ODF, they should be interoperable.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package.

    • Hi. As the title suggests, I can't access the forum on my phone. I'm using Edge on Android and when I try to navigate to the forum I get a "we value your privacy" popup and none of the buttons are clickable. It effectively stonewalls me from reading any forum content.
