New Firefox theme and matching WB

Friday, January 29, 2010 by zigboom | Discussion: Sneak Previews

Hi members of the community. You may have wondered where did I disappeared ( well, I said "may" ) Anyway, I've been focusing lately on creating Firefox themes. It's a very big project that takes a big part of my spare time. It's also a very satisfying project and I'm happy to see that all my themes are rated and both released themes entered the top 20 popular themes with about million downloads. Ok, enough with the ego pumping intro , let's get to the news... I've just released a new Firefox theme that's going to have a matching WB (coming soon). I'd like to invite you to have a look and give some feedback. I'm posting here because my Firefox themes aren't hosted here but on Mozilla's forum (There's no substitute for Mozilla's mechanism of automatic updates and extra features for supporting the add-ons). Anyway, as they say, a screenshot is worth a thousand words... I'll post more screenshots as I make progress with the WB (and if there's some interest from you guys of course). Comments are welcome.

I finally uploaded the theme, thanks for the feedback and special thanks to theAVman for the tutorial on skinning the throbbers (I was stuck with a throbber from previous WB).

Thanks also for Vampothika for her most wonderfull icons SteamPunk that decorate it so nicely.

The theme is in moderation, looking forward to hear more feedback,

Best regards.

 

p.s. The theme is only for XP because that's what I use.

If anyone likes to help porting it to Vista/win7, please contact me.

I'll be happy to make any extra images needed.
