Trying to give this another go,

For the opera users out there,
1) is there any way i can make my bookmarks scrollable like with firefox rather than expanding the whole tree?

2) Also why am i logged out and lose my theme when i go to the root of Role Playing Games, its quite annoying

3) Why is Opera so much slower than firefox when browsing forums, is there some settings i need to tweak to make it work properly?

i would agree with you for the previous release but the new one seems to suck up resources when playing vidoes and such as well as crashing/freezing alot
i am using firefox now, but am tierd of the instability

If i could make Opera look and feel like mozilla i would be happy
(also some webpages dont seem to load properly in Opera, like Mage Realms - Magical Massively Multiplayer Online Gaming Experience)

Well I have been using opera for the last year or something - I think it is the best browser out there - and fastest. Only problem I've ever had is some instability with divx(stage6) movies. So have to admid I sometimes use safari for stage6 and my homebank.

Can't really answer any of your questions though, sorry.
Perhaps it is just a matter of taste and you need to give it some time to get into. Had the same problem when I moved from IE->Firefox->Opera/Safari.

Firefox is better than Safari imho. Yes, Safari is the native browser and as such it has a much better resource management (which is a massive FF problem, as Chronic already mentioned), but I like the looks of FF much better (favorites are much better organised than under Safari). If they make the favs look better, then I might consider using Safari =)

NO problems whatsoever with firefox here, lots of lovely plug ins too :)

You aren't using vista by any chance are you?
