How are we supposed to criticize this?
We're only looking at a small part of the GUI...

I know this is hard, I'm not even sure if it's possible, probably, but try to make the header, the part where you write the URL, transparent, almost like Windows 7 arora theme. That would look awesome.~

Are you basing it off of anything (like how TOR is spun off Firefox) or coding from scratch? Either way, I think it's pretty impressive. Making a browser is something I've wanted to do for a while but never got around to. Good job and keep it up!
(also, would the browser and/or source code ever be available?)

It looks like he/she's using the original "WebBrowser" tool from VS/VB.NET, which is based off of Internet Explorer.

And to the OP, I'm totally digging it so far! Great job!

Huh. Never knew. I might actually do this now!

I've gotta say, in Visual Studio it's pretty easy to make a browser (a lot harder for a nicer looking one). If you want to opt out of using IE as a base, there's a Firefox based browser tool.

Also, if you really want a challenge, try to write one in C#!

Good luck!
