SVG Examples for Firefox 1.5

November 29th, 2005

Firefox 1.5 is coming out tonight! The best browser gets even better. (Don�t have it yet? Download it here.) Barring some unforseen last minute bug, version 1.5 RC3 will be the same as the release version, but I do recommend waiting for the final 1.5 unless you like to live on the edge like me.

So what�s new about Firefox 1.5? Most notably there�s now a true patch system for automatic updates that work without having to download the whole installer.

Beyond that, you can now drag and drop tabs to reorder them, CSS 2 and 3 support moves steadily along, and most exciting to me, Firefox now includes SVG image support!

That doesn�t mean much to most non-graphic-designers, so I�ve got a page on GlitchNYC to illustrate how SVG differs from traditional web graphics, and how they can help turn you from doodler to artist. Go get yourself Firefox 1.5 and check it out!
