Today I was looking for some cool skins. It took me less than to find great looking skin for Firefox web browser, it’s “Blue Ice“.
However, I haven’t found any great looking skin for Opera and don’t know why. Am I too picky? Or just used default skin for a very long time? I’ve tried some of the Editor’s picks but… Most of them there very old ones or just didn’t fit “my style”. Would you like to share us your favorite skins for your favorite web browser?

Isn’t Firefox about:blank page bit boring? Just a white backgrund and nothing else. Have you ever wanted to make it look different? Guess what. You can do that now with Firefox Stylish add-on.
I had some problems after installing “about:blank – FF blurry” style. It messed up all my other styles. Maybe that’s just me, but don’t say that I haven’t warned you. Use it on your own risk.
You can find many about:blank pages styles here or even create your own one.
Yet another nightly build from Firefox team. It’s Firefox 3 Pre-Alpha 8, 13 Sep 2007, this version includes only one bug fix (according to changelog) which is:

Partial Landings/WIPs/Incoming:
#395066 [Firefox:Places]-Hang when trying to clear browsing history [All]
Everything else seems to be the same since the previous nightly build.
Is there anything wrong with the code itself or only Firefox (and Firefox based browsers) can handle animated favicons?
[link href="ico.gif" TYPE="image/gif" REL="icon"]
Changed <> with the [] so code would be visible.

I’ve checked this site with Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 2.0.0.6, Opera 9.23, Opera 9.5 Alpha, Safari 3.0.3 Beta, and only in Firefox I’ve seen animated favicon. Any ideas?
