And here is the announcement for our when we hit our first milestone in Summer of Funding! This feature will be developed and a beta will release when the first $200 dollar milestone is hit.
The first milestone will implement TB3 Tabs!
ThunderBrowse using TB3 Tabs Mockup
Many users have asked me for this feature, and I’ve long said that it’s a total maybe. I’m not super fond of TB3 tabs, but I’d be happy to add such a feature. I’ve done some research and it’s totally possible for ThunderBrowse to use the native Thunderbird 3 tabs. However, adding the feature in would require a lot of work.
Here’s what implementing Thunderbird 3 tabs would change:
ThunderBrowse Tab Settings
- Build a dual tabs system that would allow users to choose which tab system they want.
- Add an option to allow users to choose what tab system they want.
- Require a rewrite of most parts of ThunderBrowse in order to support such a system.
- Do a couple of tricky tricks to make sure the tab system is working properly.
But in order to add this, I’d need a lot of time because this will require a semi/major rewrite of a lot of ThunderBrowse’s core functions.
As I stated before, I really don’t have time to work on ThunderBrowse as I am working towards paying for college. So please, help me out by donating to the ThunderBrowse Project. Thank you.
Optionally, if you are a company or an organization who needs an addon developer, please contact GameSpotting! Networks. I work really quick (and if you don’t believe me, check out the feedback I’ve gotten on past projects), produce great results and I have good rates.
Thanks so much!
