Mozilla recently made available some of the theme mockups for Firefox 3.7. As indicated on the Mozilla page, these are not final and are for brainstorming purposes only. That being said, let’s take a look at how Firefox 3.7 is shaping up.
Here are some of the features that have been mentioned.
- Embracing Glass: Toolbar and Tabs using Glass. Buttons translucent and slightly glossy to meld with the toolbar. Raised 3D look to achieve tactile “feel”.
- Page and Tools Buttons: Page and Tools on the Navigation Bar.
- Bookmark Bar: Bookmarks bar on by default. New Bookmarks “widget” containing the bookmarks menu contents.
- Home Tab: Home tab containing your homepage to start. Expanded functionality planned for 4.0.
- Menu Bar: XP will retain the Menu Bar by default. Can be turned off.
- Styling: Slightly different styling for each OS theme.
Take a look at the screenshots.
