You know, this firefox, red panda creature is very sympathetic.
I'm already starting to like it more than firebird.
I always liked mammals better than birds.
After all, we are related...

If you're not using the default theme is rather normal. Give the theme author some time to fix them with the new release. Until then, turn back to the default theme or pick one that is certified to work with FireFox 0.8

Heh I've been having such a good time with [IMG] That I forgot to report back.
I'm as impressed with it now as I was before, I like it. It's rapidly becoming silly for me not to have it as my default browser, by the amount of time I find myself using it.
Early days yet though.
Alevice, I've never played the game so didn't make that visual connection. But I knew it must have related to the it in some way It's a game I've often thought of trying out, along with Diablo2.
Anyhow, I meander...This is a screenshot of how "foxy" looks on my Warcraft skin. If anyone want to see a better quality (and larger) pic clicky on it. 'Tis 302kb.

poi: thanks. I didn't even think about that. I was using a FB theme. That seems to have been the problem.
thanks.

Tao -> To be even more precise, it is an Orc style.

Anyway, I have not been able to fix my damn start page to work right on FF, this is pissing me off. i guess its time to make a thread in the css forum to see if anyone can help me out :P

Spot On!
Thanks Alevice, It was so long ago that I downloaded the skin that I have no idea where it came from. That link looks perfect on my system skinned.
I'm going slightly off subject, (nothing new there then). But I just had to say how weird it felt posting my desktop online. I think it's the first time I have done it, heh, A bit like I was letting everyone into my living room.
Or mayhaps 'twas the new batch of Black Pills nursie dropped off last night

I usually post my desktop whenever there is a Post your Desktop thread in any of the forums I visit.

Which makes me think there should be one at the Asylum, i think it will be fun

You show me yours and I'll show you mm,,,.Dohh, I did that already
Here's a thought, and this is definitely on track.
Does anyone use the email client that integrates with FB or FF? If so what's it like? Or do y'all feel 'tis best to syick with Outlook Express?

Thunderbird (being the email client), which I think should be renamed to ThunderFox, as mentioned above, doesn't actually "intergrate" with firebird per say. The mozilla group realised that many people didn't want intergrated web browsers and email clients, they were different applications and should be kept as such. Which has spawned the seprate product lines we now have today.

Anyways, thunderbird is an execelent email client. Much, much better than outlook IMHO. I've been using it for some time now, even before I switch to using FF as my default browser. It's organised well, handles multiple email accounts extreamly well for both IMAP and POP3 accounts (I have a couple of both), includes regular expression filtering / sorting of inccoming mail into folders and well, just about everything I've ever wanted in an email client. The auto spam management is quite nice as well. If you mark an incomming email as trash, it'll try and catch all subquent messages that are similar and treat them the same way. And of course, the contacts managment is quick simple and straightforward.

Although, it would be nice if I could find the damn extensions site for it (if there is one), as I'd love to intergrate all of my XML feeds into my email client instead of my IM client, which seems to slow my computer down a lot when I add more than 5 feeds.

<off topic> That asside, Miranda ( www.miranda-im.org ) is an execelent IM client, I'd highly recomend you look into it. It does take a bit of work to get it setup properly but I realy like this one because tt doesn't need to be installed thus I can put it on my USB disk and have it, along with all of my contacts, at university or wherever I end up. </off topic>

While I personally still dig the power of MS Outlook proper, I agree that Thunderbird really kicks booty. I set up relatives that need technical help, with Thunderbird, initially to keep them away from the inherent vulnerabilities in Outlook Express, but have found it to be a great free email client for all the reasons that Cameron mentions.

Hmm, Mozilla Phoenix becomes Mozilla Firebird becomes Mozilla Firefox - Mozilla really needs to secure an original name to avoid being forced to change it again. Mozilla states the name changes are due to undisclosed legal reasons, uh huh.

The history repeats itself.
Raptor became the NGLayout Project became the Gecko layout engine.
