(For 3.7 Mockups: User:Tro/Firefox 3.7 Windows Theme Mockups)

Initial Windows Theme Mockups for Firefox 4.0

Version A - Tabs-on-Bottom

Possibly add a Bookmarks widget as an upfront replacement for the Bookmarks menu/Bookmarks toolbar (option to turn those on would remain).

Version B - Tabs-on-Top

The more contentious Tabs-on-Top concept.

Positives

• Save Vertical Space
• Efficiency/Remove Visual Complexity - Right now the tabs have to be connected to something. So we are adding an extra visual element for them to connect to.
• Shorter Mouse Distance to Page Controls

Negatives

• Breaks Consistency/Familiarity - Moving things confuses existing users.
• Title is MIA - With the space removed from the titlebar you only get the truncated version in the tab.
• Longer Mouse Distance to Tabs - Takes longer to mouse to a tab.
• Lost Space - Sandwiched in between the application icon and the window widgets you lose some space.

Combo Stop/Refresh/Go Button

Attached at the end of the location bar.

• Turns green when you start typing.
• Blends with the location bar when at rest.
• Turns blue on hover.
• Turns red when a page is loading.

The proposed iconography is mostly colorless. Adding color to these temporary action driven buttons will make it more obvious something is going on.
