Firefox 3 Windows Theme

Last week we kept you up-to-date on Mozilla’s progress for the Firefox 3 theme on both the Linux and Mac OS X platforms. Today we finally have a glimpse of what both XP and Vista will look like once the new icons are integrated into the browser.

Note: I believe the order from top to bottom is: normal, hovering, disabled, and clicking on the icon.
