I've noticed the tabs in the Gnome version are much larger than the Tango version, too large in fact.

Also, an example of one the icon that is not Gnome, here:

Other than that, it's already shaping up to be a nice theme (Y) .

Woah, it doesn't happen in the Tango version? Would be quite strange as I copied the .css file in both themes. Anyway, I'll try to fix it this evening as I'm at university right now.

Actually, that's a comparison between SooperDude's theme :p . But the Tango tabs seem smaller in mine. I would also like to point out that the loading animation uses the Firefox version for both Tango and Gnome. Also, somehow the whole page is slightly small. I can't explain it, it's just the border for Firefox has gain a bit of padding. I'm not sure if it is an issue on my computer or others have it as well.

The theme is slowly getting there to becoming a good compliment to to Tango and Gnome desks (Y) .

I'm working on the tabs now, already made them look better, but not perfect (aka smaller).

The firefox border bug is already fixed in my version but I wanted the tabs to be completed before release.

Thanks for pointing out all these bugs (goes out to everyone here :D)

Yeah I noticed that border bug on my xp machine using the royale vista 2 theme and am using the version with non-native tabs in the mean time, can't wait for the new version :)

It's gone quiet around here :p . How's the update coming up, MrFuji? I hope you've managed to solve any issues encountered with the skin such as the loading animation and such. Also, I want to point out that the Bookmark icon uses the default Firefox icon. That said, take your time as RC2 has just been released and it's not really that important. Better to wait for the final release and iron out all the issues.

Firefox final is approaching :)

Unfortunately, I'm quite busy with exams now so I don't have much time to work on the theme. Probably, I will release a bugfix release next week and then a completely new theme (most likely Discovery, I use it myself in linux :p) in July.

Hey MrFuji, may I make my own adjustments to your theme?

Also do you know how to add icons to menu items?

Sure, no problem. It's all open source, you know ;) As for the menu icons, I haven't really tried it myself yet but you could have a look at sooperdoode's tango theme or the bookmark menu part in browser.css

Really hope I get to work on the theme - I don't want to learn :p

Me again.

Also, I want to point out that the Bookmark icon uses the default Firefox icon.

You mean the star, don't you? It's the icon from the official firefox 3 theme in linux. Compare:

post-165530-1213804990.png = XP

Anyway, I'm changing the loading animation right now, and there will be native tabs in XP and Vista. Expect a new release this evening :)

MrFuji,

Thank you for a great looking set of themes. I almost reverted back to FF2 after realizing there were no FF3 tango or gnome themes available yet; that is, until I saw yours.

I only have one request: t-a-n-g-e-r-i-n-e.

Keep up the good work sir! Hope everything went well with your finals.

Well, and again ;)

I've attached a small note to the first post on why some icons are neither Tango nor Gnome, I hope you understand and I bet you get used to these :)

Wow, I never realised that :o . It certainly looks different from the previous bookmark icons, though I guess it's for the better if they hope to make it fit. Somehow though, I preferred the old icon better but I guess I just get use to it.

    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
