Gives a nice, subtle touch of color in lieu of the regular Mac gray. I did notice some irregularities with this theme, such as tabs are really large and they don't have a close button on them. Also this Beta doesn't appear to be completely compatible with Tab Mix Plus. Are you planning to pursue work on iAqua to make it compatible with Firefox 3.5 and popular extensions like TMP?

As I've said, I wont waste my time to do it all the way now for FF3.0, while FF3.1 is upcoming for release at the end of March. Changes will be the removal of the "Tab" toolbar-icon, the change of stylesheets for the Scrollbars and the now using gecko 1.3.1 machine. So there will be changes until the final release. The current Version wil look fine on FF3.0, with small icons and who really wants this theme, can use it for now. I'll rework it when the final FF3.1 release is out. Actually if you copy the Toolbar-small.png and rename it to Toolbar.png (obviously have the original toolbar.png deleted or renamed as well) you can use the big toolbar icons as well. I didn't use any tutorial, I just looked up the Style Sheets, used Gimp to rework the small toolbar and after that it was only resetting the install.txt and the packing. I'm actually on another Theme at the moment, that makes it pretty easy to remember where files and details are hidden. After all, the system inside the themes is weired alright. would be nice if the folder were logicly arranged, but hey .... thats the mozilla developers crazy work.

The _DS_Store files can be ignored. They aren't anything you need to worry about. It's all in the packaging. Can you send me the files ZIPed up? twistermc/gmail I just zip up the files and then change the extension from .zip to .jar. The themes then work on Mac, Windows and Linux. Yep, I’m on a Mac.

You've got mac Machine right? I've just asked a friend with mac machine to install the theme and he says as well it throws a 207 error. When i now look in the other themes, i find certain mac files like the "._.DS_Store". Now as I've said, I dont have a clue how to adapt a theme to work on macs as well. maybe you can tell me or even write a tutorial, because my search for a solution has been successles so far. By now only linux or windows user can use the theme. sorry. But I'll keep on searching for a solution, cause i#d like to know myself for the future. Hmmm, it works for me.

Is that because it contains the download URL? Did it got caught in the Spambotfilter? Maybe Twister will submit it manually when he checks his moderated Comments.

It will worke on 3.0.5 as well, but only in "small Icons"-Modus. 2) I've done it quick and dirty, because I Expect a lot of changes for the final FF3.1 release and i simply dont want to do it 100% for just a couple of weeks. I'll redo it again when FF3.1 is in final release. 3) The "Tab" Icon has been removed from Firefox in Version 3.1. I find that a bit disturbing, but with [Strg] + [T] you can open a new Tab manually. 4) There is a little gap between the "Forward" and "Back" Icon. Thats because of the missing "Tab" Icon. I'll fix that in the final FF3.1 release. Hope you have fun. If there is any Problem, let me know. Oh yeah, I'm not too sure If it is working on Mac Machines. It should, but if not let me kno as well, i'll try to fix it. I simply have no Mach Machine here to test it. It works under Win 2000/XP/Vista/7 and Linus/freeBSD. Link: www.rodnox.de/extras/iAqua3.1.jar To install open [tools] -> [Addons] -> [Themes], drag & drop the *.jar file into the Popup Window and follow the upcoming instructions. Hope that helps. greets Rod Now, 4 Things before i write the link.

I had to see that sevral things have changed. There is no "Tab" Icon any more, the Scrollbars have changed and there are changes on the url bar. From this point of view it would be a nonsense work to rework the Aqua Theme for the FF 3.0.5 Version. I will rework it for the 3.1 Beta Test Version, but there is no guaranty that this will work, when FF3.1 is released as final version. We'll see.

I'm sure he's gonna rework it himself one day. But since I've offered to do so, I'll give it a go. I've just changed the install. txt so the old theme would work on FF3.5, just to see how big its gonna be. By the looks of now, its only the URL bar and the Google search bar, that are effected, as well as smaller correctures. That shouldn't take too long to rework. 3 days in maximum i think. Could you or anybody give me a screenshot how the url bar has to look? I havn't got a FF2.0 around to see myself. If not, well I'll see how close i can come.

It's tough when Firefox continues to evolve. Thigns get added and removed and there are lots of leftovers. The Firefox actually left most of those un-needed images and it can be confusing. I just don't have the time currently to get everything cleaned up. As for permission, anyone can use the files for whatever you want. I want you to create a Firefox theme that blows mine out of the water. :) Ohh and if anyone cleans anything up, please do let me know.

I've mentioned it. It's a web Developing Standart to keep code and folders clean. That makes it easy to rework them at any further Situation. And about the permissions, yeah I do have permission.

And making it from scratch: I can tell by the look of the code that even TwisterMC did not make it from scratch, the Toolbaritems from a previous Theme are still around :D. Not many people do it from scratch, it is a unbelieveable work to rewrite all the Style Sheets. Greets Calm down Jo, I didn’t complain. I’ve mentioned it.

To use Twistermc's themes and then complain that they are messy. Have you got permission to use the theme? If you think it is terrible why are you using it anyway? If you are making your own theme surely you should make it from scratch and not pinch other people's work!!! I think Rodnox has a bit of a cheek!

I'm currntly working on a Theme and have used your Midnight Theme as base for it. Its an absolute mess inside. Graphics you don't need belong in a "Off" Folder, the documentation is messi too. Appart from that, great work. Dude, thanks for your work, but you’ve seriously got to work on your clean ups. I’m currntly working on a Theme and have used your Midnight Theme as base for it.
