Midwest Tour Continues

I feel like I’m on a tour of the Midwest. We left out Minneapolis home on Friday and traveled to Iowa City for my wife’s family Christmas. It was a great time and we had lots of good food. As soon as that was over we drove back to Minneapolis and I hopped a plain […]

Tinseltown, iPox & MidnightFox Updates

I don’t usually post about multiple theme updates at once, but everyone got a little update today. As noted earlier, all themes should now be Linux compatible. MidnightFox also got the status bar code updated so hopefully that ugly grey one is gone. iPox got the most updates with a new throbber and a few […]

Welcome Linux Fans

t took a few days and lots and lots of test builds but I think all the Linux crashing issues with Tinseltown, iPox and MidnightFox are fixed! Even better yet, the fixes have no ill effects for Mac or Windows users. I’m so happy. A huge thanks goes out to all my help including ehume, […]

Using Optimized Firefox Again

Once again I’ve fallen for this grand idea of optimized versions of Firefox. I’ve tried them in the past only to fall back on the default Firefox. But here I go again. This time I’m running both G5 and Intel optimized versions with aqua widgets. I have to say, seeing check boxes and radio buttons […]

Tinseltown Feedback and Exposure

In less than one week, Tinseltown has exceeded my expectations and has been getting rave reviews. Mozilla reports that Tinseltown has gotten over 35,000 downloads in just 5 days. Checking out the comments left on the Mozilla page, there are no major issues (except for some flavors of Linux which I’m working on) and a […]

Growl Present 1.0

To go along with Tinseltown, my Firefox Christmas Theme, I created Present for Growl. Growl is a notification system for Mac OS X: it allows applications that support Growl to send you little pop-up notifications. I had always wanted to create a Growl notification and found out that they are quite simple. I took my […]

Announcing Tinseltown – Holiday Firefox Theme

I’ve just released my latest Firefox theme called Tinseltown. It’s a Christmas theme to help decorate your desktop with a bit of holiday joy. It’s hard to believe that last year my idea of a Christmas Firefox theme was to put a background image behind the toolbar. My theme knowledge was non-existent. Fast forward one […]
