Safari 4 opinions

I really like it much more than Firefox 3. It's faster, crashes less (my firefox seems to crash all the time), and the favorites function is pretty cool. Anyone else using it?

It's yet again a speed bump, has some cool added features. I've always used Safari as my default browser, so for me it was just a slight upgrade. I have been able to crash it a few times doing really intensive torture tests and development, but that's about it.

Yeah, I've never liked Safari for some reason. I've found it slower, but this is definitely faster.

It's for me as for Simba. It's the fastest and nicest web browser to use. Used the 4beta before and it did crash a few times. The new real version is rock solid.

I have been on Safari since day one, I still use firefox to test some sites out since Safari is getting better but still a little misleading when you are working in web design.

I've always used Safari. But, I was very disappointed when I opened it for the first time, and under my favorites menu two porn sites appeared. Jeez Apple, let the whole world know!

I noticed they made a color adjustment so now images look slightly washed out but I can't find a simple code fix like there was for Firefox, any ideas Simba?

Safari reads color profile data from images and renders them accordingly. If colors look washed out in a specific image, it's generally due to the image in question, not anything Safari is doing.

If things are displaying differently, it's possible you've recently tweaked your colorsync or display settings.

For example If I compare a picture that I just uploaded on flickr (looking at it in Safari) to the original in iPhoto...the flickr picture looks washed out. So it can't be my colorsync or display settings. I see other people have complained about this as well on the Apple forums.
