After using Firefox 4.0.1 on Win7 x64 for almost two weeks, I still have the following questions/problems, for which I just can't find the solutions. Please help.


(1)

Is there a way to change the shape of the tabs to resemble real tabs, sort of like those tabs shown in the picture attached with the first reply I posted below.


(2)

I notice that when there are more than 6 tabs, only the current tab has a close button.

Can there be a close button on every tab, no matter how many tabs are on the tab strip?


(3)

When you drag a file ( .html, .jpg, etc) from Windows Desktop or Windows Explorer and then drop it into Firefox, the file will be opened in the current tab.

Can it be opened in a new tab?


(4)

Is there a convenient way to select multiple images on the same web page and open them all, each one in a new tab, with just one simple action, e.g., a toolbar button click, a keyboard shortcut, a mouse gesture, etc. ?


(5)

[ I asked this question a few days ago, but still got no answer. ]

After the currently active tab is closed, I want the previously active tab to be displayed automatically, no matter what its position is on the tab strip, and no matter if it has any kind of relation with the closed tab. Just previously active.

Can that be achieved?


(6)

Although "Use small icons" in "Customize Toolbar" is not selected, I still feel the icons on the Bookmarks Toolbar are too small. Can the size of those Boookmarks Toolbar icons be increased (scaled up)?

Just the Bookmarks Toolbar icons. The other toolbars don't matter.
