@Nerte85 Did some searching and playing around.

Try this (if you have already, maybe this can help someone else). Assuming you got your drop down menus back, go to "View>Toolbars>Customize". See how the [+] moves all the way to the right side? Drag that [+] all the way to the right of the address bar. There, it will transform into the real "New Tab" button. You can drag it wherever you want. Also, from here, you can move "Reload", "Stop", and "Home" back where they belong. :)

@Nerte85 I'm assuming you're talking about the drop down menus. If so...

Go full screen, right click the very top and check "Menu Bar".

Also, if you're like me and you hate that they switched "Open in New Tab" and "Open in New Window" around, get an extension called "Menu Editor" and you can switch it back (or however you want it). You can do this with the drop down menu options as well as the right click options.

I miss Firefox 3's interface. CTRL+E missing is lame, Panaroma sucks, tabs are kind of slow to open/switch to.

Congratulations for allowing for the customization and not forcing the new interface layout on the users (something that Microsoft surely would have done).

All in all, great job guys.
