Download Opera 11 Wallpapers

To celebrate the release of the first Beta development milestone of Opera 11, the Opera Design team has put together and released a set of wallpapers which are currently available for download, free of charge, just as the browser.

Opera 11 hit Beta at the start of this week, with the bits delivered to early adopters for testing. Opera 11 Beta continues to be available for download even at this point in time, and users familiar with running pre-release software should give it a try and see what the next version of the browser brings to the table.

One innovation in Opera 11 is related to tab management. Tab Stacking, the latest feature unveiled by Opera Software, allows users to create groups of tabs by simply stacking tabs on top of each other.

“We've added functionality to enhance your tab experience. Tab stacking allows you to organize your browsing, optimize the space on your tab bar, and keep yet even more tabs handy for use.

“Dragging and dropping tabs on top of one another creates stacks. Hovering a stack gives a visual overview of what's inside the stack. Expanding and collapsing stacks allows you to optimize the space on your tab bar any way you like.

“So, if you're already using lots of tabs, you might want to: stack for looking at later; stack for different tasks; stack for checking out after work; stack for just creating more space for tabs.

“Whatever you like to do with your tabs, tab stacking should help you organize, identify, and access lots of content directly on the tab bar,” revealed Tami Weiss, from the Opera Desktop team.

In addition to the Beta bits, users can also grab three Opera 11 background images put together by the Opera Design team.

And in order to understand the music references, and especially the "This one goes to 11" motto in the design customers should take a look at the video embedded below.
