Idea #5754: firefox 3 theme

Written by JhansonJr the 26 Mar 08 at 08:52. Category: Internet & Networking. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: New
Rationale
firefox 3 theme for linux sucks compared to mac os x and vista's. Mac OS X's "Proto" Theme makes our theme look very amateur. Maybe someone could create an "Ubuntu" Theme that looks good, unlike the one now.

i like the simplicity but it would be good to have an option.

Just install whatever theme you like.

Firefox3's default is to use your gnome's theme, so if you don't like it is the gnome theme's fault, attack there.

Are you kidding?

Linux has the best theme for Firefox 3.

Just look at the Windows theme for Firefox 3 it looks absolutely horrible.

Proto is hated by Mac users, because of the roundness and the big back-forward button, they like more this: http://www.takebacktheweb.org/ .

Themes for Windows look completely amateur. Both. The colors, the shapes... Hahaha...

The theme is determined by your desktop theme in FF3, not by a standalone theme. If you want to change the firefox theme, just change your desktop theme and you're done.

I dual boot between Leopard and Gutsy. I absolutely LOVE the proto theme, ESPECIALLY the big back/forward buttons. As far as firefox 3 themes on linux, all we have is the crappy nasa theme and the GNOME one. Nothing for Xubuntu or Kubuntu.

The default firefox 3 DOESN'T have a theme. It's just your current icon set. It's meant to be that way to be more inline with the system. Just change the icon theme and you have a brand new firefox theme. I love the it.
