I got a nice surprise yesterday when MidnightFoxy was made live on the Mozilla Addons site!

The Firefox 2 version never made it out of the sandbox over there and was never publicly available.  It bugged me, but there wasn’t much I could do.  However now, MidnightFoxy can get the attention it deserves.

MidnightFoxy is a dark theme just like MidnightFox.  The main difference is the buttons are square and they get larger when you rollover them.

Give MidnightFoxy a shot if you like MidnightFox or dark Firefox themes.

Another day, another theme. MidnightFox has been released for Firefox 3.

Instead of waiting until it’s perfect, I decided to release what I had done.  Thanks to the beta testers, any major bugs should be worked out and it’s ready to rock!

If you are a fan of the spinoff theme, MidnightFoxy, that’s still awaiting approval from the Mozilla folks.  It can be found on the Addon’s site though.

As always, any bugs can be reported in the bug tracker.

MidnightFox has always been a great theme. It’s dark, yet usable and, as stated by others, one of the best dark themes out there. However, I wanted more.

While fixing a few toolbar issue with MidnightFox, I started updating other pieces. I reworked the tabs, the bookmarks, some menus and the the navigation buttons. Taking extero’s icons and leveraging Pixelmator’s menu design, I created much nicer toolbar with icons that ‘pop’ when you roll over them.

MidnightFoxy was first set to replace MidnightFox, however some of the testers were partial to the old buttons. So MidnigthFoxy was born. It’s basically the same theme, only with a more polished toolbar.

The first public version of MidnightFox has been released!

You can grab your copy from Mozilla’s official addon site.

Keep in mind this is a dark, yet usable, theme. It’s not for those don’t like black. It’s also not finished. This is only the first public release. However, it’s got quite a lot done as I’ve learned a lot from iPox.

Enjoy and let me now what you think.

PS: It’s dark, so I’m sure there are a lot of extension text issues or something. I tried fixing them all but they keep coming back.

I’m currently working on a new Firefox theme. This time, it’s dark.

MidnightFox is based on iPox and has some similarities. However, I’m working on theming everything to bring a nice, dark experience to Firefox. Don’t worry though, it’s not too dark. There is color in the buttons and were it seems necessary.

I’m hoping to put out the first release of MidnightFox later this week, but that’s only if all goes well.

Sneak Peek!
