Don’t know if there are any Opera fans 'round here but I thought I’d spread the word.
Looks pretty good so far. Pretty damn customizable. There are a couple of annoying bugs but nothing too major.

I downloaded a couple of button sets.
They fixed the font problem with the SD home page.
I liked the tree on the bookmarks.
What bugs have you found?

When typing a URL into the address bar - it seems to slow down a bit when the history window pops down.
Also, I don’t know if this counts, but this code:
\
doesn’t work in version 6. It worked in versions 4.x and 5.x.
Finally, I can’t double-click the icon on the menu next to the File option anymore to close the current window. I either have to click it once, and click close on the resulting menu, or click the X on the other side of the window. I don’t know why, but I’m used to double-clicking that icon. Ah well no biggie.
Besides those few things, I’m enjoying it a great deal.
