Next Firefox Version Will Look More Mac-like, Less Crap-like

How many of you use Firefox on the Mac but hate how it looks like a Windows 3.1 application? The guys at Mozilla know this, have heard your complaints and are now doing something about it. If all goes according to plan, Firefox 3.0 will feature a much more Mac-like interface. In the meantime, one of the main developers of the new Mac build has released a preview version on his Weblog… too bad for us the Mozilla servers seem to be dead at the moment. Way to get our hopes up.

I just hope it dosent use MAC’s annoying minimize/maxamize/close buttons. Who decided it would be a good idea to use colors instead of visual icons?

I just use BonEcho. It’s a build of Firefox that uses native widgets. From what I’ve seen you only need to comment and/or uncomment a few lines in the Firefox source to get native widgets. I don’t know why they haven’t done this in the official builds.
