Plug ins to display browser name?

cretaceous

Help - all the damn browsers look the same now!

Today I have FF, IE, Chrome and Opera open, all with different login privs to the site I'm working on.
I used to easily be able to see if I was looking at Chrome or Firefox and therefore know what login priv I was seeing.
Now I keep getting muddled - I just want the browser name at the top in the main nav or title area!
Any simple solutions?

Well a simple solution, at least for Chrome and FF (dunno about IE or Opera) is to use the Theme capability to give them different looks... I just use the icon in my taskbar myself...

Icons in taskbar is just more mousing up and down when mouse is at top of screen.. and I often have two separate FF windows with one for admin view.
Themes? I just want a simple name displayed!
Funny.. I figured there'd be plug ins.
OK - I will get the browser agent and adapt a js script I use that gives me a nice readout of screen size!

Hey man, I don't have any idea if there are plugins - I hardly use any plugins myself, just trying to offer something to help.

As for themes, there may be themes that display the name, hence why I suggested it.

I'm not sure what the mousing up and down is about to see the icon... My icons stack for like applications, IE when I look at my task bar, I see one chrome icon but I have 6 chrome windows open (okay, I actually see 2 chrome icons, because I have two separate users, but 6 windows under my primary user and 3 under the other). Also, the active window is highlighted in the task bar so its easy to tell which application I'm looking at.

Straight up, IE is the most recognizable since it looks nothing like the other browsers. Plus its blue everywhere by default whereas the other browsers are not.

Opera also displays its name in the top left (with a big O).

Firefox is easy to distinguish from Chrome by the fact that it by default has the search bar in the top right, whereas Chrome does not. Firefox also has a big circle around its Back button whereas Chrome does not. Firefox also has no gaps between its tabs whereas Chrome does.

Also as Derokorian pointed out, you can easily see which window has focus by glancing at your taskbar.

I have my taskbar set to auto hide!
Weird how similar they all look now - it really got to me last week.:queasy:
