Here is an excellent news for Mozilla Firefox users. Almost all Firefox users complain about its look which is not good compared to other browsers like Google Chrome, IE8, etc. IE8 provides Aero Glass under Windows Vista and 7 but Mozilla Firefox doesn't.
Now here is a great news. Mozilla is working on Firefox 3.7 version which will support Aero theme under Windows Vista and 7. It'll have a completely re-designed GUI under Windows XP, Vista and 7.
Following are some concepts taken from Mozilla Wiki:
Windows Vista and 7 (Aero)
Windows Vista and 7 (Basic)
Windows XP
Keep in mind that these are just mockups not the actual theme.
One thing is sure, the GUI looks excellent and it'll definitely excite Firefox users.
Thanks again "Marc" for sharing the link...

Sorry that i ask, but what is the last theme what is used in the last xp-picture?
VG
^^ Its Windows MCE (Media Center Edition) default theme named "Royale Blue" which can also be used in other Windows XP versions.
You can get it here:

The above theme contains Royale Blue as well which can be selected from the sub-style list in "Appearance" tab.

Does that mean they're gonna implement jumplists in it too to match IE8 on Windows 7?
Archer
As long as they don't copy the tabs into different windows on the Taskbar like IE8 does. That's pointless and annoying.
I'm keen on the new themes, but it looks a little too "Safari-like" to me. With the rounded grey buttons and the two right-hand icons under XP. I prefer to stick with the glossy Strata buttons and the Glasser Plugin.

@Ultimate User: Jumplists Will be implemented in 3.6

An interesting step forward (or backwards?)...
I like toolbars, and don't really want to see Mozilla stick them in random places just so the glass effect can look better.
I also think the design is too much like both IE7/8 and Chrome. I'd like to see Mozilla do something of their own in Firefox 3.7.
I also don't agree with having different layouts in the various OS's. Some people use multiple OS's every day, such a difference is just silly, and I don't see what it achieves.

Thnx

i agree with archer. The glass is cool, but the buttons just don't look as good as they do in 3.5.1. They are too much like IE. I installed the "All-Glass Firefox Mod" from the firefox addin page and it looks so good, much better than that screenshot. Just a suggestion: you should try it.
