I absolutely love it. My only issue is that I can't use any of the custom menu buttons I've made or change the text in the menu button to read "Firefox" even though I'm using Minefield. I'm sure this is due to the method we were using to do that; they were dropmarker arguments, and you've somehow removed the dropmarker in your theme (which looks really good, it's just inconvenient for my scripts). Any ideas on how we could manipulate the menu button text in Stylish while using this theme? Or is there some code we could use to bring the dropmarker back?

Post the code you're using and I'll get it working.

The most basic version would probably be

#appmenu-button .button-text { display:none !important; }
#appmenu-button dropmarker:before { content: "Firefox" !important; }

. If I had an alternative to this I could use it with everything else.

Alright, I think I removed some code in the theme. I'll see what I can do.

Good enough, I should be able to work with that. Thanks a lot!

Update: Well, it kind of works; when I plugged it into my Phoenix button script it put the text before the icon instead of after.

Update 2: Changed "before" to "after" and it worked ;)

Can someone help me make the bookmarks Bar Aero and make the text more visible while its Aero. Also make it a little slimmer than it is by default to go with the theme.

So far I have this. Most of it I picked up from SoapyHamHocks post earlier.

#PersonalToolbar {
  border-top: 0 !important;
  -moz-appearance: none !important;
  background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(255,255,255,.1), rgba(255,255,255,.1), rgba(255,255,255,.1)) !important;
  padding: 0 !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:not(menuitem){
  color: white !important;
  padding: 0 5px !important;
}

What about something like this?

#PersonalToolbar {
  border: 0 !important;
  -moz-appearance: -moz-win-glass !important;
  background: transparent !important;
  padding: 0 !important;
  margin: -4px 0 1px 0 !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:not(menuitem){
  text-shadow: 0 0 5px rgba(255,255,255,.75),
               0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,.3) !important;
}

Thanks that worked beautifully! oh one more thing is there a way to make the active tab stand out more maby make it darker? I really cant tell the difference right now.

I hope we are allowed to give opinions. :)

To start off, for an alpha this is great. I'm utilizing the stylish add-ons you posted, as well as renaming my Minefield to show the current nightly date I'm using. All in all, it's great but I think some things need to be changed. Transparency is a bit too extreme for my tastes and on darker backgrounds the text becomes almost unreadable (including the bookmarks). Active/Inactive tabs need work as well as they are almost indistinguishable. Finally, I understand the whole white button concept, but I think the App Tabs look really off in their current state, especially when you add your own custom url App Tabs as they are in color.

Other than that, it looks great and I'm glad you decided to release it in it's current state. It's definitely usable. :D

SoapyHamHocks: I tried your new reload/stop buttons on URL bar, but it doesn't seem to work with this theme. Do you have a version for this theme?

Thanks for the feedback :) I know some things need to be changed. We need to think of some other ways to do the tabs and reduce some of the transparency in the theme. I could cook up a simple combined reload/stop script if you want, but we wanted to hold off until we made some slightly smaller reload/stop icons.

Edit: I noticed you're using "small icons" mode, I would suggest you don't for now :p I haven't worked on that at all so its a bit cramped.

SoapyHamHocks can you please write me a quick script to differentiate between Active and Non active tabs?? I really wanna use this theme but this problem is almost a deal braker. Thanks

It's fine, I can wait. There's no need to make you do more work when it's not a big deal at all.

I went to normal icons, but went right back, lol. It is a little cramped now that you say so, but it's perfectly usable as is. :)

Here you go, its simple but works for now.

toolbar[mode="icons"][currentset*="urlbar-container,reload-button,stop-button"] #urlbar {
  -moz-border-radius: 2px 0 0 2px !important;
  border-right: 0 !important;
}

#urlbar-container + #reload-button,
#urlbar-container + #reload-button + #stop-button{
  border: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.35) !important;
  border-left: 0 !important;
  -moz-border-radius: 0 2px 2px 0 !important;  
  -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,.4) !important;
  background: rgba(255,255,255,.90) !important;
  margin-left: -3px !important;
  background-clip: padding-box !important;
}

#urlbar-container + #reload-button {
  padding: 0 4px 0 4px !important;
}

#urlbar-container + #reload-button + #stop-button {
  padding: 0 4px 0 5px !important;
}

Alright, I'll try a few things.

Edit: Do you think this makes it any better?

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] {
  background: rgba(255,255,255,.20) -moz-linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,.30),
                                         rgba(255,255,255,0) 100%) !important;
}

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] {
  background: rgba(255,255,255,.20) -moz-linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,.30),
                                         rgba(255,255,255,0) 100%) !important;
}

It Make a very slight Difference but its still not very clear.

Try this:

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] {
  background: rgba(255,255,255,.20) -moz-linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,.53),
                                         rgba(255,255,240,0) 144%) !important;
}

    • Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
