http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/picture.php?albumid=25&pictureid=2115"Percy Cabello: Firefox 3 Beta 4 is about to be released (later today or tomorrow), as the twelfth milestone, in what already is the longest development time for a Firefox version since the initial Firefox 1.0 back in 2004."

"Fortunately, Mozilla has not been shy to set as many milestones as needed, and given the many new features and tweaks Firefox 3 introduces, it seems anything but sensible, specially considering it’s not only about Firefox but Gecko, the web page rendering engine and the Mozilla platform as a whole which affects the many products based on it."

a quick look at the new back/forward buttons makes me not want to install this when it becomes final. That looks ugly, imo.

The last beta was slow as hell in forums and other PHP based websites :/

Yea, there was a thread about that at JoeJoe: Ie8 Not Rendering Forums Correctly (http://www.joejoe.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=14565)

It's still a beta tho'. So like, make a bug report.

No kidding. Perhaps someone will make a "retro" theme. :whistling

:dry: What a rip-off of M$'s Longhorn concept.

I thought Firefox's default theme was always fuck-ugly anyways, so...

I have always been fine with FF2's theme. Nice and plain.

What's wrong with it.

ughs, seeing that again it's just so awful looking. Plus, it's adding to the width of my navigation toolbar. I agree with Skizo...the default theme is the best one. Simple and stylish.

I think it's gone gold, djsaqis. Might wanna look to see if it's released already. Or maybe I should post it here. :eyebrows:

So you're saying you're not. All I'm asking for is proof...:whistling

It's not the longhorn theme it's vista's.:blink:
It takes on a theme according to what OS it's installed on.
On my pc it's got the ista theme but on my older pc with xp it looks different (same version).

get a different theme if you dont want it, Im sure someone will come out with a classic Firefox theme fairly quickly :yup:
