[callummr]

How old are you?

[SpewBoy]

How old are you?

By the sounds of it I don't think he will be getting much older. Although he will get all wrinkly and shriveled up (assuming they don't cremate him at his funeral) :D

To all you guys here:

Get v0.4 of my theme (Starta40) here.

To the developers of the redux:

Above is v0.4 of my theme. Feel free to integrate bits into your combined one if you like (just mention me somewhere :D)

[nero78]

How old are you?

31 (as in avatar. 78 if you do some math ;)). And yes that post was fake if you didnt understand it...

I too think Firefox shld concentrate on performance

But its not that they are not focusing on performance :

Im desperately waiting for Firefox 3.6 Beta to come out, according to MozillaWiki , Beta 1 and 2 will be out in September only! And 3.6 will be ready by November!

Its good that 3.5 is kinda short living , as it cant face the competition given by Chrome and Safari....

EDIT : LOL @ Chrome , Version 4 will have native Add on support , ROFL , what were they doing till Ver 3??? Just performance and themes :p

Thanks for the update, looks much better :)

great job mate! it looks much better with the addons you recommended too (Y) Although, I don't like the Omnibar display of the progress bar. Couldn't you have integrated it inside the URL bar?

Thank you, but I got a small problem any idea? I have disable all of my stylish codes

[andrek]

Go to Personal Menu settings and disable "Show temporarily by pressing Alt key" in Options tab. ( or even disable Hide Menus Toolbar if you're using ff 3.6 or 3.7 )

are you sure you're using https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/14288/ instead of All Glass?

One bug I noticed was that the left/right tab-bar navigation buttons overlap the tabs by a few pixels.

I also use the Tab-Mix Plus' close button ont he right end of the tab-bar, and it's not showing up with SpewBoy's Strata40 theme.

I'm personally not a fan of the small button design from spewboy's theme.

The forward/back buttons break consistency from the larger ones and others found in the theme...

Here's my mockup... I made a working mockup to use personally.

The blue is inspired by Firefox's current blue highlights on "pressed" buttons like the new tab button.

Not shown: Hover effect, which is a darker blue than the hovererd highlight

[Hani]

i found two bugs for now:

-no progress favicon for tabs when a page is loading

-status bar doesn't accurately fit the window borderline

[Black Rider]

-status bar doesn't accurately fit the window borderline

Another bug on the status bar:

If it is deactivated, it looks like this

Yeah, that should be fixed, please... I'd sacrifice that semi-transparency of the statusbar for one that framed up properly [like the glasser statusbar] ...

Btw... the tab bar is like this as well.

Here's a screenshot of what I mean. One pixel can make a huge difference. The shot also has the bug I mentioned earlier [overlapping tab and button...which I'm near 100% isn't the fault of any other stylish code].

i don't have that bug

[dert07]

Would you please stop posting bug reports on SpewBoy's theme in this thread?

It's really confusing and SpewBoy released it on the Mozilla Add-ons site.

So please post any bugs there or maybe on his deviantART account.

[Savage Alien]

You're absolutely right. There's even a thread dedicated to it in this very forum. I'm moving these bugs over there... Sorry for having hijacked your thread, dert07.

No problem, just got a little confusing.

And I had the impression that some people mixed up the two themes, so it would be better if we would seperate them.

Thank you for the moving.

I've made a userstyle to further enhance the Redux3 theme:

A progress line on the tabs:

This is in line with the Firefox 3.7 Revision 2 Mockups

Still somewhat rough, suggestions are appreciated.

I thought that glass bar effect was included with the latest beta of Redux? Just as an extra effect that needed to be enabled?

If it was I don't know how to enable it.

[SoapyHamHocks Member]

If it was I don't know how to enable it.

We did include it as an option, but I don't think I made it clear enough. To enable ours here is the code"

#bookmarksBarContent{
			 -moz-border-image: url("chrome://global/skin/images/extras/Bookmarks-BG.png") 0 8 0 8 / 0 8px 0 8px !important;
			 margin-left: -3px !important;
			 margin-right: -3px !important;
			 margin-bottom: -3px !important;
			 margin-top: -4px !important;}
			 .tabs-container {
			 -moz-border-image: url("chrome://global/skin/images/extras/Tab-BG.png") 1 8 0 8 / 0 8px 0 8px !important;}

Also to fix your idbox issue with locationbar2 try this:

#identity-box > hbox {
margin-top: -1px !important;
margin-bottom: -1px !important;
}

Also thanks for the tab progress line, it looks great :)

Er... I'm constantly switching from Strata40 to FF3.7 Mockup Redux (which by now looks more like 4.0 than 3.7 ;) ) and back since there's something I like and dislike in both...

It seems to me that SpewBoy's buttons are rendered closer to the mockup than those in the beta - I hope you guys are going to use them for Redux before you release it, or work some more on yours. On another note, the RSS animated icon is very nice. I am waiting to see the home and page buttons, it's great you succeeded in making them. Oh, and don't forget to skin also the History button, in the beta there are just the Bookmarks and Tools buttons.

Eagerly waiting for the release... :)
