A New Look For Firefox
ben writes "Regular users of Mozilla Firefox may be interested to know a new default theme is planned for 0.9 in preparation for the road to 1.0. 0.9 will also feature new improved theme and extension management, which will make it easy to make Firefox look the way you want it to."
I just want to register my disgust at the behaviour and unprofesionalism of the people overseeing this project. The way they have treated the artist who contributed so much of his time is appaling.
This is almost enough to push me to another browser.
SHAME ON YOU!
Nobody wants to do the grunt work. Everybody wants to diddle themselves over how they added some interface feature that's super cool and customizable. Sure there are those who do the hard stuff but they seem to be a minority.
Blar.
Interesting that the smallest market share, OS X, should determine the default look-and-feel of Mozilla everywhere.
Suggestion: Ship Mo with several themes, and make sure the user knows how to change it. The default should match the user's OS, and not the one some developer or artist working on Mo is using.
