Comments on: MidnightFox is Released! http://www.twistermc.com/blog/2006/03/30/midnightfox-is-released Like a Themepark of random information.

I have a screenshot but nowhere to upload it. There are two white regions above and below the tab bar. How can I hack this? They really must go. If you could find a way to at least put a narrow border aroud the menus it would be helpful too, the entries just blend in with any white page. I'd prefer a very light blue-grey but don't know where in the css to put it. Again, it is cleaner and cooler looking than any other so far. Please keep up the good work!

A theme shouldn't change how the browser acts, just how it looks. gurgle - Your issue sounds more like you have your scrolling preferences or an extension customized to something you don’t like.

No matter what I do someone won't like it. ;) I'm open to suggestions though. Jason - I’ll see what I can do with the buttons.

Just one gripe with the MidnightFox and it's a small one - can you change the icon for the home button - god knows what to (lol). It would be cool if you could refine the refresh button image (the swirl) to be even more like the golden mean spiral, but only if the image sits well in proportion to the button. Congrats and thanks on a cool theme :) This a cool theme - I like the way iPox is being refined as well.

Print - 1) I didn't change the order of any buttons. I have no idea what you are talking about. 2) Are you on Linux? That's the only version I hear of crashes and it has to do with the Google Toolbar and my themes. 3) Ummm... no idea. You might want to look into theme building. 4) Thanks :) iza - Thanks for the screen shot. It really helps me see your issues. I'll work on them.

Great theme, best dark theme yet (the only one I have kept). The extensions and themes managers are fairly mesed up with MR Tech Local Install though, and the mouse-overs on the menu are still blue like in ipox from the managers. http://img447.imageshack.us/img447/5658/midfox3ty.jpg ^ Hm that’s odd, I havn’t had any problems.

Why would you even do this? Is it possible to theme without changing the order of my buttons? 2: Right click customize crashes the browser .1 seconds after it shows up, so i can't reorder them with your theme loaded. 3: Preffer the original FF icons with your theme, how can I change that back? 4: Nice colour scheme, if it was crap I wouldn't have bothered giving you this feedback, to kudos. 1: You changed the order and contents of my default buttons (back, forward, refresh stop).

Just wanted you to be aware that with All-in-one sidebar extension, the bar to expand/collapse the sidebar on the left is not ALL the way to the left like the other themes. This one puts a small gap between the edge and the sidebar which isn't right. Very good theme.

I think the theme is great! It suffers minor issues when coupled with certain extensions, often displaying white under selected menus, and other such errors. All in all, its pretty clean, especially when there are no extensions to intefere with it. The icons are clear, the scrollbars/loading bars are unique, the menus are nice, the tooltips are simple, and best of all, without extensions, the only error I could find was the infamous "corrupt match case box" on the find-bar that was ALWAYS a problem on iPox (future revisions...?) The one thing I couldn't help but wonder: What is this theme based on? Kinda random, really. Getting pretty creative, eh? I think the theme is great!
