New skin to play with

Oh my! ......This is going to take some getting used to; the header looks great though.


















Later

I like it. I agree with Joan. Now I can tell where I'm at easier.
Only problem now is that I can't get it to take in the FF beta 2 browser.

what do you mean gary???
i got FF 3.1b2 working fine....

When I click on the new skin the page reloads, but it's back to the blue v2. It's fine in IE 32 & 64.
It's also ok in Vista & 6801.

hmmm....
wierd....
i just got the portable beta 1 and then updated to beta 2
(just wanted to know what the fuss was about w/ the javascript engine)...lol

is this vanilla or do you have any addons???

Not a big deal, just odd. FF safe mode is the same. Only addon is a tab colorizer.

Gary

Yep, Don't mind the new 7 skin. Except for the urge to click the arrow buttons

OT (too bad FF3.1b2 knocked out speed dial )

I just installed FF beta2 in Vista. No problems with the skin. Just another problem with the 6936 build.
