I rolled back to XP today because Firefox 3 was one of the many things not working on Vista.

In the meanwhile, would you be so kind to tell me how to turn off the smoothing?
Not even that much I know, yet. But there must be some setting in about:config, as you pointed out. I just haven't found it. Since this is a Firefox thread, it can't hurt to ask you people: Has anyone experienced this problem in which videos embedded in Flash stop working? They usually play two seconds, soundless, and stop, even though they load and all. I think this has happened to me while having lots of tabs open (which I usually do) with lots of videos or Flash stuff in the different tabs. The only way to correct it is to reopen Firefox. I haven't found a permanent cure. |

Type about:config in the address bar and then scroll down to browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped and change the value to false.
Can you do something similar to stop the pixel filtering? Hmm, I'm not quite sure but it may have something to do with images.dither on the about:config page, change the value from auto to false perhaps? Don't quote me on this though... browser.enable_automatic_image_resizing set to false might also be of use to those who were experiencing the shoddy pixel art resolution as well. |

I have to agree it is fast. I mean, it was on my computer for what, 10 minutes?

... I still don't understand what this scaling issue is about. I'm on FX3, and Derek's avatar, for example, is perfectly crisp.

My avatar's not scaled, though. Head over to Pixelation and click on one of the pixel artworks posted there to see what the problemo is. |

Or maybe it's the other way? |

That doesn't work. Things like Pixeljoint scaling thingy still look like shit even with that off. I think that just makes it so images that are too big or something aren't automatically resized. I'm looking through about:config for anything that could help and I found this "images.dither" thing, set to "auto", but it uses a string instead of either false or true, so I'm not sure what to put in it. |

I'm using Opera. (9.5 on my desktop, 9.2 on my (old) laptop)
I don't know if it is truly faster or something but I love it.
It's indy. Maybe I just like it because everyone uses FireFucks nowadays. (Pun not intended)
I actually used FireFox for some 2 years... but I sticked with Opera around version 8 or so because it seemed to me that every really useful feature first came to Opera and then was introduced to FireFox. (for example: Wand, Fast-Deal)
Opera offers me just the customization I want and it's really stable.
And it's really easy to clear the cache+history after having surfed for p0rnz on the interwebs.
Ah... I tried Safari for Windows once. And it sucked. I took some useful features from Safari (Recycle Bin?) and integrated it into my Opera. And that just made Opera superior.

Yay for firefox 3!!
Although I haven't noticed any differences other than pure asthetic ones.
It's still great.

What is this "awesome bar"? Is it that fugly new context menu sort of thing? The one that shows history options as you type, and is just like the old one except fuglier? |
