updates Meet the browser: Firefox Next

Looks good on Mac but I doubt I'll like those curves on windows. The transparent inactive tabs will also be unreadable on light/bright wallpapers.

Not that bad unless you have a solid white background.

Could you put here this Nightly build link for i can test? Please, I can?t find it on Mozilla FTP server...

Has anyone had this problem:

In FF4/5, if you snap the window either to the left or right in Windows 7, minimize the snapped FF window and then maximize it again, FF "forgets" the size of the window when you try to unsnap it. Has this issue been fixed in post-5 versions?

Not a fan of the overly curvy tab design, looks like wasted space. I much prefer the old tab design in the 3.6/3.7 mockups, but I think that was dropped due to certain underlying issues.

Edit: lol, I forgot the OS X theme still has the old tab design. It was just dropped from the Windows theme for some reason then.

I haven't noticed that problem before as I don't use Aero snap. but the problem exists still in today's nightly. so the problem is still not fixed.

been running the beta for 6 however, i am assuming soon it will update to the 7 beta once 6 is released.

Well that sucks. Thanks for the info, I use Aero snap a lot and most of the time it doesn't bug me since I don't minimize FF in that state but once in a while it slips up.

The wavy tabs in Chrome were tolerable, but I was glad to have rectangular tabs when I moved back to FF4 when it was released. It's just far easier on eyes and less distracting. The focus should be on the content of the webpage, not at the tabs.

However, I do like the blending in of the tabs that are not in focus. Basically follows the same principle that I just mentioned above.

:whistle:

Looks pretty sweet dude! Not sure about the focused tab though, I like the inactive ones though, that's a cool idea!

The mockups are based on the Nightly channel, which is currently in FF8. Assuming they do implement any changes to the UI, it won't reach your beta stage at least for another 8-9 weeks.

Agreed the curvy tabs are distracting.

That doesnt happen with FF6 b3 - nor can I say I have ever noticed it in any other builds Ive tested

Yeah, but i only know how to do iTunes themes. I have never dabbled into making a theme for a web browser.

really awesome! BTW can u work on autohideable forward button too? it should appear only if u have something in forward page. Thats what the mockup is about and there is a bug already present https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674744

Just added it :p I'll make a topic in OS customization so we don't clutter this one. I still need a name for this theme.

If anyone is interested in a theme based on the current mockups I've started a thread here.

Anyone using the Forecastfox addon and latest nightly experiencing crashes when hovering the forecasts?It crashes every time.

Also seems the automatic cache is clearing the cache almost every time i exit the browser.With the aurora build it was going up to 600-900MB.
