Firefox 3 beta 3 now available for download. As always until Firefox 3 goes gold, don’t download and use this unless you’re here to test. I’m being ironic by not listening to myself, but hey I want to test anyway :P

The new icons that were discussed by Alex Faaborg have been incorporated into beta 3, and indeed the Windows XP icon set does look more like Royale than Luna now, and that’s indeed a relief :)

Screenshots beyond that more-link.

Firefox 3.0b3’s Back & Forward buttons
The new Back & Forward buttons. The new style of drop-down comes from IE7.

Firefox 3.0b3’s Options icons
The new Options icons. Notice, in the Content icon, the Chinese character ‘狐’ which means ‘fox’.

The new Get Add-ons panel
This Get Add-ons panel lists recommended add-ons, but you can also search Mozilla’s database in here.

Once again, I’m looking highly forward to a release candidate, then the gold release, of Firefox 3!
