Google Chrome is very good Mole bach. Easy to download and install.
So Fast
You can set up a "Speed dial" as your homepage. All your favourite pages can be shown as large (Or small if you have a lot) thumbnails and you just click and go straight there. Google search bar is always at top so no need for a Google page. I like it...
But I also have Firefox because Lloyds TSB interenet banking won't work with Chrome. (Or at least it didn't when Chrome was new)

Chwyddodd gyfoeth gwr yr aur a'r faenol,
O'i enillion prin a'i amal gur.

Moley, stop your dangerous talk about "alternative" web browsers being "very good". Heretic!!

Lots of options Moley. If you want to try out something heavy duty go to 'Ubuntu Software Centre' in Applications and install 'Gimp'. That does everything but takes a while to learn. If you want something quick and simple install gThumb from the software centre. Very easy to learn/use.

Installed Gimp.
Took Screenshot of Google Chrome Speed dial (This is my personal one) to show Mole bach
Reduced in Gimp and saved as J.Peg.

Nice one Moley. Gimp is not the easiest graphics program to get to grips with.  =D> =D>
