chrome
firefox
opera
safari

I'm using the grapple crisp theme for firefox because the default theme is so ugly.

Firefox only looks good in Windows Classic.

My choice of UI after Firefox would be Chrome.

the page and wrench icons on chrome look exactly like the safari on windows icons. weird.

has anyone else seen firefox on windows 7?: http://prntscr.com/35boh

the ui fonts are hideous and hurt my eyes. chrome's tabs use the default windows classic font (tahoma I think?) which is one thousand times more readable than whatever firefox decided to use. thunderbird looks like this too now.

the menus and dialogs are also in the same font as the tab. it's terrible.

Yeah, I have the default Windows 7 theme (Aero). Shouldn't matter for fonts AFAIK.
