How is everyone's startup time with Stratiform installed, is it about the same? I tried to make all the functions except the prefs execute after Firefox was fully open. If you're on Firefox 5+ you set 'extensions.stratiform.JustTheBasics' to true to disable everything but the preferences from loading on startup.

Oh man this new version is fun to mess around with! The best addition is the Background Image for the buttons........

I don't think we will be adding Chromelike icons because they're larger than the 18px and we would need large buttons to make it look right. A random button would be really cool haha.

That was the original plan. Stratiform kinda evolved a bit more than that and Ben(SpewBoy) didn't really code the other styles yet. Most of the buttons are bit more complex than the current ones in Firefox 4+. My 'Untitled' style was actually my attempt at creating such a button, but it didn't quite come out right.

Hi, first congratulations, new version is awesome, run smooth and without problems on Aurora and Nightly (latest as possible) good job ;)

I've only one simple question, is there way to get back default extensions buttons, I need my No Script button as it was by default :D

We just added that option right now. Originally it was planned for beta1, but we completely forgot about it. Anyways it will be included in beta2.

Just want to point out a theme discrepancy in Firefox 5.

Firefox 5+'s URL bar dropdown icon is now a small icon like in IE9. The one that Stratiform has as the default is still the huge one from Firefox 4. Screenshots as below.screenshotgcf.png

Might want to take a look into either (a) adding a Firefox 5 default theme or (b) making default really use the current Firefox theme's options.

Using the Opera-esque Address bar, Favicons are no longer displayed on HTTPS, an ugly lock icon is displayed... do you think you could use the favicon instead?

I already use this script to add a much impoved lock icon

Opera does not display the favicon by default, at least that's how I see it on Opera Next.

Also, I found this one: When logging in to facebook with the addon bar disabled, the small chat windows on the bottom of the page was elevated (as if it's assuming that the addon bar is enabled). I only fix it by enabling then disabling the addon bar again. Anyone else experiencing it?

I love the Chrome esque buttons! Will you be including Google Chrome styled tabs?

Will the search bar be getting some attention soon? Such as options to style the magnifying glass icon? How about when selecting the Operaesque text field option, it makes the Search Bar text field look like the Opera Search Bar as well?

Are you using any userscript?

In Strata40, there was an option where you can change the style of the Firefox tab. Will you be adding a feature where you can change the look of the Firefox tab instead of just adjusting the color?

We will be adding some more options for the application button. When we add Soft7 there will be a style for that, we may end up adding more at the same time. I may look back at some of the older mockups to get some ideas.

i personally think this is one of the best, IF NOT the best addon for firefox ever. from the sheer amount of options, ease of use, and the very well done and clean layout, I couldn't possibly ask for more. keep up the awesome work!

This looks awesome! :p

I have downloaded it and testing it now.

Thanks guys really glad you like it.

    • Motrix Next 3.9.4 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management.

This release refreshes bundled engine binaries, improves task detail readability and copy actions, expands link handling for magnet and ED2K workflows, polishes responsive navigation and text wrapping, updates browser extension documentation, and refines network preference controls. New Features Task Detail copy actions — Added copyable values for task metadata and reusable render functions for long text fields.

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
