On top is the default style (M1.5default), with an orange up line as well, also it turns orange when tabs are hovered too.
It's nice and a little soft 3D style and all, and the orange bar helps to notice the active one quick.

So...after all this, I don't get to even try out the new style to see if I might like it, as I'm W2K? Those rounded tabs with a bit of separation looked interesting, but I was just concerned about the stripe.

(1) classic XY tabs (as they are currently)
(2) standard XP tabs (as in your Maxthon shot, with orange bar...); I might this make the default even, just as I changed the column headers to XP style, and just yesterday started to change the control borders to XP style...
(3) new XY tabs (similar to firefox tabs)

Note: With OS < XP or "classic design", you will get only (1) and (3).

I'll try to find a way to make (3) colorable... if it does not happen you can still fall back to style (1).

CatalogItemDistY=-2

But I have a couple of very minor cosmetic issues (not sure if this is due to the particular theme I am using - although tabs in other apps look fine).

First problem is there appears to be a 1-2 pixel border under the tabs (not present in any other app).
