Can you update "Apps Tab" to "App Tabs" in the new UI section.  I think its an error for all platforms.

Comment 2

[Laura Mesa [:lmesa] [:lvmesa]]

No other copy updates, but please remove all "new" and "updated" tags.

Suggestions:

* Update the new UI video - still says "Beta 1"
* Update the Sync video - the new one is available, see Bug 612951

I can update the video but I'm not qualified to produce another screenshot with the gradient effect.

Here is the image used today : http://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/img/firefox/beta/4/features/spotlight-sync.png
Here is the one we're using on the whatsnew page : http://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/img/firefox/beta/4/video-syncsetup-thumbnail.jpg

Can someone produce this screenshot ?

This fixes the video with JS enabled.

The phrase "New Tab Location" is ambiguous. It could refer to the relative location within the tab strip of newly created tabs. Instead, we should use a more precise phrase like "Tabs on Top".

Thanks Frank--that's funny, we thought new tab location with an arrow was a bit more descriptive ;)

I'll look into this for Beta 9 update, but thanks for the suggestion--with beta 8 tomorrow, I'd have to change a bunch of materials around and I don't think we have time to change them all.

Another possibility would be "New Tab Bar Location", which is different enough from the concept of a "New Tab" to avoid confusion.

Assigning to Chowse who can help with the screenshot. Laura can you ping chowse or chime in here with more details on what exactly is needed? Is he creating a new one or just adding the gradient effect to the existing one?

Chowse and I just talked and using the screenshot anthony wansted to use won't fit with the rest of the site. Our solution (we need this eod) is instead to use the same screenshot, but instead of seeing the old video, the new video loads. 

I know its a bit of an ugly hack, but we're in a tight situation.
