| ![]() Yup :( Thought i finaly found something Chrome aint got lol

| ![]() I like my RealAquarium (fishtank widget for Opera). It's boring to look at. Just like Opera, boring to look at. But it's 'straight to the point'. It does what a browser should do, without the fancy flares and add-ons. Easy as pie. edit: Even if you did fancy changing the way Opera looks, you can choose from a huge amount of nice looking themes, and just to push it a little further, you can move any button anywhere you want to. edit: just an example: --- Web developer, currently looking for graphic artists / designers.

| ![]() I use Opera, with the IBIS Inspire Transparent theme to it. In my opinion, Opera is not only the fastest browser I've ever used, but it is also the most customizable. It doesn't limit your bookmarks, you can have up to 25 speed dial sites, and it has the ability of killing scripts as they run.
Say goodbye to all those websites that forced you to kill the process because the popups would never end, just check a box and they will all die. It has a built-in mail and IRC system as well (no experience with mail, but the IRC client is average, but works). It has support for torrent downloads
(useless, just download uTorrent, it's much faster). And it has the nice touch of not clogging up your taskbar with useless windows, if you try to open more than one all it does is open a new tab (yay! No more cluttered taskbar!). Other than that, it's just generally a good browser. I have also noticed problems with this textbox being deleted if you backspace after clicking inside it, and some websites go into an eternal refresh after they are 100% loaded, but other than that, no problems. --- May he now rest under aegis of mirage - As the sands slowly turn to Elysian fields

| ![]() I don't know why there are so many people hating on chrome. Its like Mac and PC. They were both designed to do different things, that doesn't make one better than the other. I use chrome because it IS fast. I don't need fancy add-ons or built in anything. I need to check facebook, gmail, sometimes router port forwarding, and eoserv. And those ALL fit in my bookmarks bar. So yes. Some of you may not like chrome because it doesn't have everything built in for you. But it has themes, tabs, and a bookmarks bar. And it shows the internet to me, in fact, the HTML renderer worked better in chrome for my site than it did for FF and IE. Point: chrome doesn't suck just because it doesn't do what you want it to do. --- class EOSERV { Programmer | Oldbie Open source EO Client: https://github.com/ethanmoffat/EndlessClient };

PHP is a server-side language you only see the output of a PHP script, not the source, in the browser. I use the latest version of Google Chrome. It's development tools are pretty good, but I mostly use it for it's speed and design. I hate browsers that have a large 'Chrome' and a small website display; it's just annoying.
IE sucks (especially IE6 and below speaking from a web development POV).
Firefox isn't that bad. It just has too much going on, and again I like the minimalistic feeling of chrome. The only excuse that I can see for using firefox is the addons. The wide variety and sheer number of addons make it a useful tool in some cases. The only time I use firefox is when I
need to utilize an addon that I don't have for chrome. Which isn't very often.
Opera is fast, but that's about it. The rendering engine (Presto) is shit almost as bad as IEs.
