Opera today released the latest version of its browser, Opera 12. The new version for the first time integrates customizable themes into Opera, and it features upgrades for security and plug-in operations. The new version also builds webcam capability directly into the browser. Opera 12 touts faster startup time and page loading thanks to a responsive tab-loading feature, which retains a tab's site information upon restart, but doesn't load the tab until it is selected by the user. The upgrade also contains tweaks aimed at increasing page loading time.
