Post your firefox "top section"

mine's the same as gurusan, using favicon picker to choose jpegs to use for the ones that don't have icons by default :)

nice and tidy

Mines just loaded up with bookmarks in the toolbar lol, also having TabMixPlus FF extension installed helps when i have loads of tabs open (multiline option in particular)

You haven't see the suborganisation under each folder in the BM toolbar though so you can't say that :p

Glasser makes FF MUCH nicer to look at especially on the monitor I use. Full glass > Semi glass.

In comparison yours is fugly due to the excessively long search bar - longer than the addressbar!

To me a browser layout should be functional yet still not distracting to draw attention away from the webpages being viewed. A glassed look blends it in with the rest of Vista nicely leaving only the webpage drawn to attention. Also the bookmarks bar people have here sorted using folders and short links is very useful - in yours I see you probably have to do a 2step process to load bookmarks instead of a simple click.

I also have plenty of sub organisation :)

Yeah I like glasser too, but not with the menu bar, why not just hide it, and press alt when you want to use it?

Is that the only bad thing you can find about it? :p TBF when it's in full screen both the URL and Google box are the same size. But I never type URLs, that's why I have the url box much smaller.
 
Updated :)

I used to hide the bookmarks menu and main menu (show with ALT)
but it got too tedious, a 3 step process for a 2 step process = not productive especially when you have over 200 bookmarks saved so quickly clicking a category folder and clicking a bookmark = 2 steps instead of having to go through ALT then the above!

But so do you have to do a 2 step process, except for your first three bookmarks. Because you have to click on for example "cars" and then you get a list and then you click on the link you want. With me I click on the bookmark button next to the home button and then the folders remain open from the last time you used them so you can just do one click. Not only that but I use fastdial for my homepage and it loads when I open a new tab, so anything I use regularly is on there which is just one click away on start up, and I can just middle mouse click all the things I'm likely to use from there when I first load up firefox.
 
so whats the point in it unless you use firefox at some arbitory window size (anythin but full screen) lol

It looks neater because it blends in with the title bar more, and personally I prefer the darker look of it. Just looks more integrated with the OS really.
 
A: It's glassing FF in fullscreen or not
B: Unless you're on a small monitor there's no need to fullscreen a browser window since no decent website spans content wider than 1024 pixels max (800pixels average).
