Description IMPORTANT!! This theme only works on Firefox 3.01 and higher!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

About:

The story behind this skin is pretty simple. I don´t like the new Firefox 3.0 default skin. I´ve tried some other people´s skins but I always find they still using the same scheme and button configuration from the default one, so well, I decided to make my own skin in my ( not too much lately) free time.

This is a beta, so surely more changes will be made on the theme. It is fully functional atm and no bugs have been found, however I will continue working on it in the future, so expect updates and probably more color variants and so.

|Inside

  • More than 50 customized icons
  • Custom navigation and bookmark background menus
  • Small size for the icons displayed in the navigation menu
  • Many other changes and improvements


|Instructions:

1st: Get Firefox

2st: Download this file by pressing the Download button located in the left margin of this page.

3rd: Rename the file you just downloaded from this page from .zip to .jar

4th: Go to Tools>Add ons and click over the "theme" tab. Then drag your renamed zeline2 file to that window. Wait for installation to end.

5th: Restart Firefox. You´re done.

|Credits:

This theme is based on two different open source skins. Aero Silver Fox by Brett Bodine and the iPox remix made by Thomas McMahon .

I also used a great icon set provided by ~Sekkyumu .


|Terms of use:

This skin is open source, that means that everyone is free to modify and release their own skin based on this one. Don´t need to credit me, but it would be nice. Thanks for reading and enjoy the skin.

awesome man! I might try it later but I'm good with the default skin for right now. The new "back/forward" buttons are kinda awkwardly cool to me

Awesome skin, great job.
I have one tiny little request; could you make a version that has the favicons disabled on the bookmarks toolbar?

Bobbyperux In reply to swoFF [2008-06-27 22:38:16 +0000 UTC]

Interesting, I´ll keep that in mind for sure, thanks for comment

That's a nice theme!
Some tips to make it even better:
- the seperator between the address and the search bar could be less visible
- the darker horizontal line in the middle of the bookmarks toolbar makes it a bit less readable

keep up the good work, I like this one

MrSteveSomeone In reply to djscorchio [2008-07-21 15:58:56 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I noticed that on mine too. Thought maybe something was wrong with my FF or the theme. Otherwise it's a great theme.

..sob alas i am too dumb to figure out how to use your great skin

I tried to click on the zip file and rename it with an ending of XPI , and i tried JAR , neither worked

I guess i am just to stupid.

Bobbyperux In reply to EnzuDes1gn [2008-06-27 19:28:22 +0000 UTC]

Just make sure windows doesn´t hide extensions when renaming files. You can change it in any explorer window going to Tools/Folder options/View tab and unchecking the respective option.

EnzuDes1gn In reply to Bobbyperux [2008-06-30 19:01:34 +0000 UTC]

Sorry for being so late with this, but did you ever try going Control Panel - Appearance and Personalisation - Folder Options - View - Hide File Extensions and then try? Worked for me.

Start/Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Folder Options/"View"/uncheck "Hide Extensions for known file types"

Then try it again.

Worked for me! THanks! It's beautiful.

I think there´s only one version to download for windows users, no matter if they use Vista or XP. I really don´t know what´s wrong with your config, many other people solved that matter unchecking the option I mentioned above. Sorry, no more ideas.

Finally. Something in the Firefox category that's actually a downloadable theme.

Looking at zeline, it's definitely a start. I look forward to when this theme is more/fully complete. Oh and check the Organize Bookmarks. The Back/Forward arrows there need fixing.
