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;
}

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
