Thank you.

#17 Thanks. I installed this in Windows 7 and Firefox ver 41
I hate that those that create user interfaces think that everything should be hidden or blended into the background.

For those that install this add-on get the following to get the color HEX numbers or RGB numbers for a customizing the colors. Color Cop http://colorcop.net/screenshots

I went all out and made the scrollbar 17px wide ah grey... #999999 and the buttons off grey #C0C0C0

I know it is really wild.

what Manner of Browser is that?

I miss the easily visible blue sliders. That is Firefox, with TabMixPlux extension (to reduce tab width, obtain multiple tab rows, etc.), Colrful Tbs, etc, which also work with the non-poltical Pale Moon derivative, though i had to search for older versions of the extensions for that.

Due to the level of enhancements, praise God, for power users they are far far superior to Chrome, IE.Edge, etc. and any others I have tried.

There is even an extension (BBCodeXtra) for formatting posts like this into html via custom scripts.

Some favs:

“One of my first impressions after launching Chrome and Safari browsers is that the sliders on the right hand side of the brower windows are too small for my liking.”

You did something wrong in a previous life and must suffer the slider hell. Hint: Check the bottom of your shoes and see if you stepped on any bugs. Repair any damage found and check back in 10,000 years for a new reincarnation.

sincerely yours,

Gautama Buddha

I’m looking forward to an update trackpad with ForceTouch.

Now that you don't really need a clickable track pad I am hoping for a combined unit that is easily handled from a couch or bed. I have a couple rigs I made myself that work but a combined unit would be cool. They make some Windows units, they work but no real Mac drivers for them so less than ideal.

PS; Space bar sends you down a page at a time, great for reading FR.

In black and white no less. Maybe some in San Francisco would be impressed.
