w00t, Its finally here and funking awesome. If you have not tried Firefox 2.0 yet give it a spin. Spell check! SPELL CHECK! Its awesome for typing stuff up in web based areas. (such as forums). It works a lot like word does, underlines the word, and you can right click on it to correct the word or add it to the dictionary. Its pretty spiffy. There is some other awesomely neat features, but its almost here, hopefully in a few more weeks it will go live. Its around 5.6 mb's download wise, people were complaining because it was nearly 1mb bigger when the first beta release came out. RC2 is still buggy, and it will override your 1.5 install, so be careful. I have yet to find any massive bugs in it yet, but I'm sure there is a memory leak or something waiting for me.

Ill stick to the current Firefox until I get alerted of an update.

I actually got IE7 RC1 for fun, and it rivals FF easily :/ I still dont use it, FF ftw.

I heard IE was still having some issues with HTML/CSS problems. But they seem to be making an effort at contacting people and fixing problems in large sites, so I suppose thats good. Good to see you around AoDC. ^.^

Yes, I am, and it owns so much ass XD
Auto - Spell Check FTW.
Although, my themes don't work with it :(
But it's pretty enough on it's own :)

Yeah, Sol is very right, the GUI is alot nicer, alot, prettier I guess than the old default theme.
I'm not sure what RC1 looked like, cause I never heard that was released <_<, I just used 1.5.0.2.

The GUI is tripping me up, things are located in spots where they weren't before. >.> When i need to *quickly* close something i end up accidentally hitting other tabs. I guess that gives me something to get used to over the next few weeks.

I use Firefox 2.0 RC2 in Windows, but use 1.5.0.7 in Linux.

RC2 has a prettier GUI and it hasn't crashed on me yet. The close buttons on the tabs are cool. I like it.

I tried IE7 and hated it. Just hated the overall feel to it. It grossed me out.

Due to extreme boredom, plus the fact that I found a tutorial covering this, I compiled a quick Zelda Fan Game Central search plugin (attached to this post). Feel free to add it into Firefox and edit it however you like, or whatever takes your fancy.

This was tested in Firefox 2 RC2 but should work fine in Firefox 1.5 (seeing as the tutorial I read was based on that).

I've downloaded it installed it into the correct directory... and it don't work o.o

Which version of Firefox are you using? You DID restart Firefox as instructed, right?

It works now so all is good

Well posting it here is only benefit for those members, as they are not supposed to watch your signature AND some of them can turn off the "View Signatures" option.
