You may find that it simply isn't very well supported in Safari. Unfortanately as great as Wine is, it's not a universal Windows replacement (yet). Application support seems to get better with every release but due to the amount of Windows applications out there you may find that it may take a while to get supported. Anyway, if it's just the looks you're interested in then this may be a good alternative... https://foxdie.us/ It's a set of Safari looking themes for Firefox. It does include a font which may need installing but it's certainly worth trying. Other than that this guide will give instructions on how to add Safari like functionality to Firefox (note: the first plugin iSafari theme is no longer available so you'd have to use the above theme)... http://www.dailyseoblog.com/2007/06/convert-firefox-to-safari-in-3-steps/ Hope this helps.
