FireFox 3 Feature Revealed

Hmm.... could they make it look anymore like Safari?

I like the fact that non-apple programs look different. Shouldn't Firefox simply have a consistent look across all platforms. I mean it's a branding thing ain't it?

If it looks like Safari, how the hell are people going to tell if you are using Firefox or not?

Because it will have the Firefox name and logo in the titlebar? LOL

Ah! Good news! I never liked FireFox on OS X because of how it looked. Thanks Numberz.

I don't know. I never liked the way safari looked for some reason. And now that firefox has copied the look it's putting me off it also.

Also I do like the idea of firefox using one look across all platforms.

Well, I guess it's mostly down to personal opinion at the end of the day. Perhaps they will include an option to keep the old UI? Either that, or I bet someone will create the old UI as an add-on theme.

But isn't that what Camino exists for?

Unless they drop Camino, I doubt I will do more than just take a passing glance at Firefox 3.

(Although I did use the early betas for a while...)

Anyway FF has skins doesn't it?

I don't like how the actual FF is not like the other apps, I want the same keystrokes/behavior across apps

I'd rather them keep the icon set they have because it's nice and just have the native page widgets like Safari has.

grapple eos pro makes ff look like a native mac os application.

also, the skin has special icons for developer toolbar, in the same manner.

Firefox needs to work on making their browser be as fast across all processors and platforms before trying to copy Safari.

It's not copying Safari, it's trying to make it look more consistent within OS X, currently it dont. Firefox does and has worked on more OS's than Safari ever will and it is fast.

Honestly, I do not give a flying F**K how it looks, as long as it functions the way it's supposed to.

Hmmm....

I DO care how my browser looks, which I why I moved to Camino in the first place - To get away from that damned brushed metal look. After that, there was no turning back.

Maybe they can first work on something like making the darn thing load a little faster.

Other than OpenOffice/NeoOffice this app is the slowest I've seen to load. Add a few extensions and it gets worse. (Leaving open isn't an option for everyone.)

I apologize for making you engage in a pissing contest there. Care to talk like a grown up now?

Your the one who said Firefox is copying Safari, how do you work that one out?

Firefox isn't going Brushed Metal though... and I think consistency in an OS makes me more productive.

Take a look at each toolbar and tell me Firefox didn't just use a Xerox machine on the Safari UI. Honestly, they're nearly identical.

You didn't get the story did you, it's meant to be like that so it fits with OS X toolbars, the same is going to happen with Vista and Linux versions making it more consistent within the OS's.

Can you all please just stop arguing. Every time someone argues in InsanelyMac, a Canadian high school student has unprotected sex. The future of Canada is in your hands.

I am happy with safari & netscape..

1. Firefox working faster on a Power PC Mac without having to search for "the version."

2. Integration with the OS X Address Book

3. Integration with the Services Menu

We get eye candy. Well, color me excited!
