Vampyr , any themes in particular are you looking for as I might be able to find a version of it that should work in Firefox 0.8.

I Just want something red.

When I think Firebird or Firefox, "red" comes into my mind. So I am particulary interested in a red theme, especially a red & black one.

The one I was using on Firebird was called "orbit red". It was a nice red theme, but no black.

I believe only the Orbit blue and Orbit Grey is updated.

I just got the official .zip version of Firefox 0.8. Other then the a bit of a annoying extension installation bug it is working nicely so far, until I go back to nightly trunk builds again.

Bah. The best theme for Firefox is by far Noia. But it's not updated on the themes page.

You have to d/l the .jar file from here: http://files.deviantart.com/f/2003/51/0/1/Noia2_11.jar

And install it from here (in the install other themes section):

lynchknot's themes are the best

http://home.comcast.net/~lynchknot/fthemes.html

Vampyr: The Volcanic Alloy theme has red (more orange like) tabs so that is another option as the Alloy themes are sweet.

Unfortunately lynchknot still has a lot of themes to be updated on his site. He has been busy, sick and is still a little annoyed at the few times themes had to be updated since Firebird 0.7
Alot of his themes are based on http://www.maxthemes.com/themes/

Any body want spell checking in Firefox?
install:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o...spellcheck.xpi
http://cgi29.plala.or.jp/~mozzarel/a...check0_3_5.xpi

If you used the installer version of Firefox then add this as composer.xpt is missing in installer builds:
http://cgi29.plala.or.jp/~mozzarel/a...r_xpt_1_6b.xpi
OR you can get it from a .zip version and put it in the installer build manually.

after installing, restart Firefox, then right click in a reply box and select "Check Spelling"

even tho its a tad buggy....

And even tho i still find opera better...

this isnt a opera vs mozilla battle, its a every good browser in the world vs Explorer battle. and i gotta thro my support out to the good side.

That, and i dig this crazy logo so much it compels me to want to like it. I see good things in its future, its new and all the bugs will get worked out.

So because of all that, its earned a spot in my sig.

I thought so too, but all it did was save itself on my desktop.

Well lynchknot's themes on that site itself are .jar files for downloading more then installing, so one way to install them is to copy the link on the theme you want and paste it in the "Remote URL"l box at bottom of the page and select Install, Or since you already downloaded it you can use the Local File box and install the theme.jar file of hard drive.

After using Firefox for about 3-5 days (I think), I have been fully converted to mozilla/firefox. Thank god NS had the option to export bookmarks and firefox allowed me to import. Because now I an netscape free!

Congratulations, you have evolved.

I'm having just a small problem. I put the button for adding a new tab on the tab bar, but I didnt notice that when the tab bar closed, the button to add a new tab disappeared and I have no clue how to get it back so I can put it in a better area. Any help? +rep for any help

i myself set it so the tab bar doesnt close. i prefer it open all the time.

and it wouldnt even let me put the new tab button on the tab bar so dunno how you did that, you sure it isnt still in the customize box?

are you trying to get the tab window back or what? little confused about your situation.

Jonbo298 · 02-19-2004, 02:11 PM

Nevermind. I'm blind as hell and didn't see the option to restore defaults for the area. Now I can re-add the New Tab button.

Heh, I didnt even see the option to keep the tab bar open. Thanks for pointing it out Null because that helps alot (blind again

). +rep

*edit* and also, I too don't know how I put the New Tab button in the tab area, but I did and now I can't do it again for some reason.....
