A little trick to use the "Home" button image in a bookmark folder. To use this, you must:
- Create a folder named "Places" (without quotes) in your Bookmarks Toolbar folder (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > select "Bookmarks Toolbar" > Organize > New Folder;
- Still in the bookmarks manager, place the bookmarks you want in the folder you just created;
- Right-click in the navigation toolbar > Customize > Drag "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" to the side of "Stop" button (or wherever you want);
- Ta-daa! It's done :)
To use this style, install Firefox and Stylish.

More Info

Should work fine with Windows/Linux default themes. Probably won't work with other themes.
Linux users: This style requires Stylish 1.0.3+ to work correctly on Linux. If you didn't update Stylish yet (and don't plan to), use Home Button as Bookmarks Menu (GNOME), which is now obsolete but still works fine. Not tested (but probably won't work) with Macs.

(29/12/2008) Removed an unnecessary line of code.
(30/12/2008) Added support for "Small Icons" mode.
(09/01/2009) Win XP: The button icon now is shiny when hovered.
(10/01/2009) Fixed button spacing.
(09/02/2009) Improved selection of "Places" folder to prevent the Home icon from showing in other elements labeled "Places".
(18/09/2009) Merged with Home Button as Bookmarks Menu (GNOME).
(28/11/2009) Some fixes for Firefox 3.6.
