People just seem to love heaping addons on FF and Chrome. They like those browsers because of all the great addons. Don't know how many they actually need, but they sure like them. A Guy

Tab Mix Plus is another add-on I love in FF.

I have Opera now too, but how do change the UI in the webpages, as for SevenForums the boxes in Chrome and Opera look completely different 
Chrome on the left and Opera on the right; I know there is only a very slight difference, but just wondering why? Is it how the two browsers handle HTML? | | My System Specs | | Computer type Laptop
