With all the talk of browsers heating up again lately I thought it would be cool to see what everyone browses with and how they are using it to surf the web.

I will update this first post with any links to other such threads that people here find.  The only one I know of at the moment is over at the Maxthon forum.

I'm running my screen at 1920x1200 which explains the stretched screen.
Here is my Firefox setup (quite naked at the moment as I have just come back to Firefox due to some memory issues with Maxthon):





Theme/Skin: 
Minifox 0.7.3
Extensions In Use (Links to these can be found in the Firefox Extensions thread): 
AI Roboform Toolbar, Scrapbook, Tab Mix Plus, Super DragAndGo, Disable Targets For Downloads, MinimizeToTray, ViewSourceWith, Ebay Negs!, Add Bookmark Here, Bookmarks' Full Titles
Disabled Extensions (still testing out):
Web Search Pro, Download Statusbar, MenuX, and many more yet to download.

Here is my Maxthon setup:



Skin: Default

Plug-Ins: Roboform Toolbar, StumbleUpon, Google Search, Enable RightClick, Ebay Search Box

If anyone wants to see the screenshots in more detail they can be found here:  Firefox #1 - Firefox #2 - Maxthon #1

That's a good idea, I sure would like to know other ways of organizing a browser!
Here's mine:

My Opera config tries to minimise lost screen space, and uses my Breeze II skin, Web Developer MICRO, customised mouse gestures and the wonderful Designer keyboard config; several panels from different sources also used:

Not visible in the screenshot, but I'm using the unicode and md5 widgets. I also extensively use Opera's new site preferences to tailor customised CSS and javascript to each page I visit, restyling them as I please. I do use the personal bar, but toggle it off using a custom mouse gesture (up-left-right to try if you installed my mouse config). I've lots of custom mouse gestures to keep moving the mouse to a minimum. The designer keyboard setup has many intuitive one-button shortcuts for extremely efficient navigation, but it takes a while to learn...



I use Firefox as a backup, and so I haven't tweaked it as much, but I give you my list of extensions (most considered essential apart from fasterfox (I can manually tweak much better) and adblock (Proxomitron is much more powerful)).

As it'd be to expect, your opera is as close to perfect as a browser can get, nontroppo! ;)
I am now downloading that keyboard config, quite better then the one I made.
Thanks!

Nothing fancy, just a simple setup.  I'm also using breeze simplified micro; have my own fairly heavily modified shortcuts -- that "Designer" set looks pretty impressive, though.
