Oh yes you are absolutly right, its a opinion. and im sorry if I heart some feelings about it, probably I wasnt enough diplomatic in my description (maybe a total #$%^). the point is that a time ago exactly this kind of gradiants etc were nice, but in my opinion time changed and design as well.
let me explain the concerns about the current color and font schema in firefox 4 tabs: - the font feels heavy and a secondary user reflex is that the whole ff4 feels heavy - the font is quiet big for its purpose and hides to much title - the difference between the inactive tab and the hovered tab are so small that you nearly get confused - the gradient is not up to date, if the design team prefers the gradients, so it should (in my opinion) work out a better and fresher one. positive effects of the change (or any similar change) would be: - user feels ff more agile and modern - user gets less confused about coloring, because coloring gets much clearer and more obvious - new users get a fresher fist impression I like Ubuntu and over all 11.04 because you guys really put energy in detail work. Design is so important that a user feels good. Users compare, users feel and users get a first impression. Something I didnt understand: Bottom Tab? Why? It changes nothing on positioning. That it doesnt break other themes... well you are the pros, i have no idea how to implement that in a distro-way :) im just a happy ubuntu user who got some user feedbacks from friends and family and wants to help the community. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/764403 Title: Firefox Tabs are ugly in default config -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
