Odd, when I try to install Flash 9 it will tell me Firefox needs to be closed for this to work, so I close Firefox, but then the installation box seems to be stuck?

Same here but it worked when I downloaded Flash 9 direct from the Adobe website (and closed Firefox).

It worked for me using FF v2.0.0.13.
Here's what I did. When it asked me to close FF, I Ended the Process through Windows Task Manager and then relaunched FF and clicked to restore the tabs. It worked like a charm!

Worked for me, but its not too special, it takes ages to upload or open/download a picture, but the picture editing qualities are great for a online suit.

Agree with David: it's slow to load and react, and even those things it offers are kinda limited (why such a small set of tints?), but it's also very impressive that there's a working thing of this kind at all, with instant visualisation. It's exciting, I think.

Firefox 3b4 (Already had Flash 9 installed)

Slow to load :(

Loaded photos from Facebook quickly, took ages with PicasaWebAlbums

I use a UK Keyboard and it reacts as if it's US (eg Shift + 3 is @ rather than £)
...Yes I know it says US only, but that's no reason to override my keyboard settings!
