		<description>Hello. 

It really looks good. :)

How about putting the reload-stop-go button on the left side?</description>

		<description>I LOVE the idea of App Tabs. It&#039;s perfect.

@ChrisJF
My mom still uses the cut/copy/paste menu items. Not everyone seems capable of learning keyboard shortcuts.</description>

		<description>The proposed new page and tools menus are bloated, in my opinion.

In the page menu:
- Do we really need cut, copy, paste, select all? (I&#039;d like to see some quantitative proof that people still use those in the current edit menu.)
- Do we really need undo, redo?
- &quot;Find&quot; should be renamed to &quot;Find on page&quot; to be more descriptive and to reduce confusion.
- &quot;Full screen&quot; could possibly be moved to the Zoom submenu.
- The three Print options should be combined into a click-able submenu, if you understand what I mean.
- Developer Tools??? Really?? Devs will probably know about the Alt keyboard shortcut to show the full menubar. Also, Dev Tools in the Page menu?

Tools menu:
- &quot;Open file&quot; -- is this necessary?
- &quot;Clear recent history&quot; should be put in the recent history submenu
- Is &quot;Exit&quot; necessary?? There is a giant red close button in Vista/7 for a reason. We don&#039;t just have to copy Google Chrome for the sake of coping Google Chrome.

I hope I don&#039;t come off as complaining a bunch. I really do love the direction the design is going for Firefox 3.7 and 4.0 on Vista/7. Great job! Hope my suggestions help!

Thanks,
-Chris</description>

		<description>Man, I simply love the new theme. I hope we get something nice for Mac&#039;s too, epecially tabs on top. I&#039;d also like to see a combined stop/refresh/go button like in the planned Windows versions.</description>

		<description>Hello. I sent an email, I hope it is not marked as spam.

I&#039;d just like to say the mockups look great. Here are some questions:
- What&#039;s happening with the toolbar buttons? Are there still going to be the different &quot;modes&quot;, such as &quot;icon and text&quot; etc.? If there is an icon and text mode, will the text be inside the buttons like the page and tools button or will they still be separate?
- Is there still going to be a sidebar? I don&#039;t use it but I know lot&#039;s of people do.
- Do you plan to have an option to toggle the menu bar or will it be removed entirely?
- Is the throbber going as well? When I removed it in the theme I made I got many, many complaints about the throbber despite having a progress bar available like the mockup one.
- Not a question but, YOU NEED A DOWNLOAD STATUSBAR. Sorry for caps but this would be a very useful and very welcomed addition for a great portion of the community. Chrome has a great one and so does Firefox with the help of an addon, but this is just not good enough.

Please have a look at my email. Thanks.</description>

umm.....the menu bar is on by default on windows xp, mac os x, and linux, it is only being hidden on widows vista and 7 where the menu bar on any other application is hidden as well. so calm down.</description>

		<description>I think it looks really beautiful! 

Some constructive feedback on 3.7:
1. I think the text buttons &quot;Tools&quot; and &quot;Page&quot; might become a l10n problem. The words in some languages will be significantly longer than in English. Icons, I think, is a better option.

2. The black and white UI might look a bit pale and seems to lack contrast. Especially in Windows XP where the background is gray (however, that might be an older revision and I&#039;m sure color isn&#039;t most important at this stage). What about a green (in XP) or blue (Vista/7) glyphs on hover? That might spice it up a bit!

3. Another thing I find somewhat odd is the drop shadow on the text input fields. They make the fields look more like buttons and, I believe, break the UI guidelines. 

4. What happened to the close tab X&#039;s?

5. Why aren&#039;t the Page and Tools buttons in the same color as the other buttons on the toolbar?

Anyhow, overall, I think the new Theme is gorgeous.</description>

		<description>I have a question. In Firefox 3.7, the status bar will still be there, but will the status bar still contain a progress indicator? I see no reason for it to, because now there&#039;s a progress indicator for each tab and one for the active tab under the location bar.</description>
