*happy whistle* Safari is SO MUCH COOLER than Firefox.

Macs are SO MUCH COOLER than PCs. *rubs it in* *hard* ^____~

Actually, I have no idea. That sounds pretty nifty. Safari just gets arrows at the end of the tab line so that you can click and see all of the extra tabs, which I find I generally like. *petpets*

Also, I can see your default userpic ^_~

Oh we're not gonna play that game. (since this has nothing to do with macs v pc)

And well I don't LIKE the arrows, so Safari doesn't win! :p

And yay for userpic!

Actually, I use both on a pretty regular basis. I just like to rub it in with my family. Usually when they're bitching about rebooting for the third time in an hour and I haven't rebooted in three months. #^_____^# He. =D My poor father. "But WHY won't it (do thus and such)?" "Because you bought a PC. What did I tell you? I said, "Daddy, get a Mac. And what did you do? I came home and you were on the phone with DELL!" =D

Mm. The arrows work for me. Mostly. So that's a good thing ^___^ For me ^_~

*SUGARS* That one works, too ^_~

I've used both as well, thought probably not extensively.

See-- I have Dells as well and if you KNOW what you're doing then no problems. This laptop can go weeks without a boot. The desk top if I did a clean wipe (it's nearing 5 years old) probably the same.

I also stress my computers a alot, I'm am thorougly unsurprised if I'm working them very hard and I feel they need a reboot. But my computers have NEVER frozen on me for anything short of an external stresor (faulty external DVD burner or something).

It's all in what you know.

I'm reluctant to do it quite yet, I've got it on my desktop so I can poke around and stuff, but I have this old skool thing where I wait a period of time post new release. Also I have an alternate PDF reader. I never liked adobe for that. *makes face*

If you're not using 2.0 yet, then somewhere in Tools > Options > Tabs should be an option to display tabs as one line, one line that scrolls, or multiple rows.

Also, no matter what version of FF I use, it randomly stops displaying photobucket and livejournal-related pictures. Every. Single. Time. I cannot get it to stop. And it's never all of them, just some of them.

In tabs mix plus I don't have that specific option anymore, now I have one line without scrolls or something, we'll see.

I googled, and got this:

Go to Display in Tab Mix Plus Options, you will see 'When tabs don't fit width' and next to it a drop down menu, change that to Multi-Row.

It was posted on November 6th, so hopefully it will apply to TMP's latest update.

God I'm a moron! I missed where you can specify the number of rows. Yeesh. Right as soon as I saw that pop up I remembered setting it the first time. *thuds*

I remember skimming past some discussion about TabsMixPlus on http://www.lifehacker.com/ the other day. Maybe looking through their Firefox entries will help; sometimes posters offer solutions in the comments section if they're not in the main article.

If you want to make your tabs get a lot smaller than the default (so you can fit more on one row before it goes to multi-row), go into the Tab Mix Plus Options --> Display --> Tab, then change the lower number in Tab Width to something smaller. I have mine set at 25 and I can fit 26 tabs across.
