2003-08-25 Builds

  • A new version of the Pinball theme is available.

I've stopped listing "regressions" that affect non-updated themes, even though most themes have not been updated. These problems are missing scrollbars and back/forward buttons, shaking, and a broken "add bookmarks" dialog. I think Firebird developers should bump themeVersion before 0.7 to prevent old themes from being used.
