How oh how are you more productive in Firefox than Chrome as a web dev? (Despite my incredulity, I'm serious) I'm a web dev and I'd scream at you long before I let you replace my WebKit inspector even with some of the newer Firefox tools.

It has to bee a taste thing, I'm not that sold on the new firefox tools either, I've even submitted some bugs [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789675 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789675] but firebug is still deep in my work habits, I did see the post about chrome tools, I must admit it does look more advanced, anyway if I could change the font, background and foreground colors I would think of moving to chrome to do my dev work, I'm not feeling the red text on the styles attributes, a green/blue combination like firebug looks better. Yes I just admitted chrome dev tools are better.

  Haha, I was really confused by: >I could change the font, background and foreground colors I would think of moving to chrome to do my dev work I'm sitting here going "...uh, I bet you can do that in IE's tools"? In seriousness though, no, I appreciate your honesty. Everyone has their preferences. I uh, will try to refrain from judging your horrible choices (I'm kidding). I was mostly worried that something major changed in the last few versions of Firefox. I'm fortunate that my current projects are for myself, and thus I don't venture off of my existing tools too much, even for testing.

  You can skin -- change fonts, backgrounds, and foregrounds -- Chrome's dev tools: http://darcyclarke.me/design/skin-your-chrome-inspector/ http://darcyclarke.me/design/skin-your-chrome-inspector/ You can even inspect an inspector to dig right into selectors.
