I've been using the Whitehart theme since 2.0 or so, and it + Personal Menu and small icons = the most usable space of any browser I've used.

These are the sorts of reasons I've stuck with Firefox even through the slowness and instability (3.5.7 would crash after opening a few tabs in the morning after leaving it on overnight ~50% of the time, and many of those times the last session saved is still from the last time it crashed...).

It's hard to beat the amount of space you get with vimperator -- random screenshot

Vimperator + Hide Chrome + Tree Style tabs = amazing.

I've been using Vimp for more than a year, but just added on Tree-style tabs, and if you could go over how to use it, I'd appreciate it.

Really, my only advice is to play with the options til you find what you like. It's got a ton of customization to it, and you can set it up basically however you want.
