which parts are so Chromish?
the new Firefox button comes from Microsoft Office.
the space between tabs comes from either Opera or Microsoft Office.
the tabs on top, which is only a possibility at this point, comes from Opera first, but was implemented by Google Chrome down the line.
the use of so much transparency in the menu may come from Microsoft Office or Chrome.
the non-flat buttons can come from Opera or Chrome.
the use of only three buttons on the left, however, comes from Chrome. it should be mentioned that Firefox is playing with the idea of getting rid of a refresh button on the left by building it into the location bar. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Projects/3.7_and_4.0_Theme_and_UI_Revamp/Direction_and_Feedback#Merging_Stop.2FRefresh.2FGo_Into_One_Button https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Projects/3.7_and_4.0_Theme_...
just want to give credit where credit is due.
- pavs 17y agoHave you used chrome recently? While they might have borrowed ideas from other UI designs, never before did Firefox look more like chrome. Not that its a bad thing. Throughout its history FF have taken design ideas from IE, Opera extensively. For all we know, FF most likely wouldn't even consider such a drastic UI change if chrome wasn't in the picture. FF UI changes has always been incremental and subtle.
