Which Firefox theme do you use?

[RAV TUX]

I currently use:

Metal Lion - iCe 1.1
Mac and Metal Lion Meet.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2476/


I would really like to find a Ubuntu Human Theme that would blend well with my desktop. This would be great if Ubuntu had one and it was the default theme for firefox that came with the dapper. This is what Dreamlinux does with their studio edition and I have to say having the firefox come prebundled with a OS integration theme is quite nice.




I was searching for a Firefox theme that would blend well with Gnome and the Ubuntu human theme, unfortunately both that are supposed to blend just are not happening:

GNOME-Fx-Human 1.0.1
A theme that makes Firefox look as a native GNOME application in Ubuntu
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/505/

doesn't work with:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060513 Ubuntu/dapper Firefox/1.5.0.3

&

GNOME-Fx 1.5
A theme that makes Firefox look as a native GNOME application. It's a very complete theme, it has GNOME icons for almost all icons and even has icons for the menu items.
Blends in really well with the Default GNOME theme and the Ubuntu Human theme.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/360/

Just doesn't blend at all or look good with the Ubuntu Human theme.

[PrimoTurbo]

I always liked the default, I wish someone would make all icons based on them for gnome.

[xXx 0wn3d xXx]

I like iFox. It just looks great :) Black Japan is also nice but the dark theme doesn't fit in with the rest of my computer.

[fabs0028]

I use the tango icon theme for firefox which blends pretty well with my tangoish based dapper :)

here is the link Tangoish firefox (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1565/)

There is also a theme for thunderbird now, but i use evolution now :mrgreen:

[aysiu]

I like iFox. It just looks great :) Black Japan is also nice but the dark theme doesn't fit in with the rest of my computer. Me, too. iFox.

[bluevoodoo1]

I usually just use the default version. The gperfection theme is ok as well.

[paulvandenberg]

Mostly Crystal

[ComplexNumber]

i use sphere gnome (large). i like it for its gnome-ishness and some of the icons used. for example, the 'stop loading this page' icon is usually a big red cross, but when you put your mouse over it, turns into a full red apple. then if you press it, it turns into a red apple with a bite mar in it.

[Ensnared]

I normally use the default theme, but right now I'm using the nuoveXT theme and the CuteMenus Crystal SVG extension for purty menus. The nuoveXT "theme" is only buttons and icons though, the main interface is still default. Never seen any reason to change it.

[fuscia]

i use black japan for both firefox and thunderbird, though i rarely use either. both open too slowly on my machine for my absurd impatience.

[Klaidas]

I'm sticking with default theme ;)

[mjm115]

I prefer the GrayModern theme. It has that retro-Netscape feel to it.

[FISHERMAN]

default Firefox-theme

[kassetra]

My own theme that I made. :)

[Rhapsody]

Noia 2.0 (eXtreme). Which I've used for a long time now. I'm constantly on the lookout for a replacement though.

Edit: Scratch that, just switched to Noia 2.0 (Lite).

[LMP900]

Add me to the default-theme list

[nalmeth]

Ifox on laptop (dapper xfce - laptop)
Crystal Dream (breezy gnome - PC)
Default (Dapper kde - PC)

[aysiu]

My own theme that I made. :) Any chance we can coax you into making that available for the public?

[Sye d'Burns]

I usually just use default.

[MenZa]

I use the tango icon theme for firefox

Same here :)

[Super King]

I used iFox for a while but got sick of it recently. Using the default theme now which is pretty nice.

[23meg]

The default is quite good and I find pretty much all the other commonly available themes unusable, except one:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/130/
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/131/

I used to use this, but I went to the default because it looks better with the rest of my recent environment.

[Caligula]

"Ubuntu human firefox theme"... (http://www.ffnn.nl/pages/projects/ubuntu-firefox-themes.php)

come on people! it's the first result for "ubuntu firefox theme" in google...
:D :D

[BWF89]

I use the default Firefox theme and have the CuteMenus 2 extension installed to add graphics to the options.

[CronoDekar]

The minimalizist Breeze (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1335/) all the way. Interestingly enough, though I'm mainly an Opera man, I like the Firefox Breeze more than the Opera Breeze -- I think the ladder is a bit too compact for me.

[Harold P]

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1790/

Great theme.

[bruce89]

The Epiphany theme.

Sorry!

[zba78]

Ifox, although this morning I switched back the the default theme because it seem to make firefox startup quicker.

try Metal Lion iCe 1.1 it's pretty sweet and still fast.

[eriqk]

Mostly Crystal on all my Fx installations (oh, and Tbird, too).

Groet, Erik

[tkjacobsen]

i use the ifox theme. I like it minimalistic.. It would be nice if ubuntu provided a default ubuntu firefox theme, though.

[RAV TUX]

I primarily use 708090-lite

[FyreBrand]

I use macbird.

[Quillz]

On Linux, I use the Human theme supplied from the firefox-themes-ubuntu package. On Windows, I use Qute 3.22, and the default Mac theme on Mac platforms.

[karellen]

especially the default one, but I also use tango and opaque

[graabein]

I use the default theme for Firefox 2. It's sweet as kandy korn.

[guitarmaniac]

Vistafox 2.0 Beta 2 (got it off deviantart somewhere).
I hate Microsoft as much as the next Linux user, but I gotta admit, Vista looks sexy :wink:

[seijuro]

I use Noia for both Firefox and Thunderbird

[kerry_s]

Default theme, but set to text, i'm so bored with icons.

[Stew2]

I use Noia 2.00 eXtreme. I have tried lots of other themes but always end up coming back to Noia. It's a little flashier than the default theme but not too over the top. :)

[graabein]

Default theme, but set to text, i'm so bored with icons.

Speaking of which, how do I disable icons in app menus in GNOME?

[kerry_s]

Speaking of which, how do I disable icons in app menus in GNOME?

I can't remember the exact details, but there's a config entry, that you just uncheck. I haven't used gnome in a really long time. Sorry.

[DougieFresh4U]

Don't know why, but I like the "Walnut" theme

[yabbadabbadont]

Speaking of which, how do I disable icons in app menus in GNOME?

System->Preferences->Menus & Toolbars->Show Icons in Menus

However, gnome-panel crashed about six times after I unchecked it before it started working again...

[Dale61]

I use Black Japan as my Firefox theme, but seeing as though it is still not compatible with FF2, I now use PitchDark.

I still use Black Japan for my TB theme though.

[happy-and-lost]

I use the Tango theme from firefox-themes-ubuntu in the repos. How original ;)

[yabbadabbadont]

I always web surf naked. Ummmm.... let me rephrase that. I just use the default Firefox theme. ;)

[Gerard Barberi]

ipox, but before that it was redshift.

[OrangeCrate]

I don't like the new default theme, so I use Winestripe 1.2.1 which duplicates the 1.5 theme for 2.0. You can find it here:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3479/

[Sunnz]

I use GrApple UNO theme... very nice IMHO.

http://www.takebacktheweb.org/themes/themes_images/GrAppleU_2_0.png

[daz4126]

Definitely ifox - looks minimal and professional.

would like the icons for this as a GTK theme.

[manmower]

Default.

[Kindred]

Tango, matches my desktop environment icon theme. If it didn't, I would go insane.

[xyz]

Halloween...):P

[Pikestaff]

I was a die-hard Qute (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/7/) user for years, but a few months back I stumbled across the Cylence (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3717/) theme and I've been using that one. If I had to pick, though, Qute is still my favorite.

[RAV TUX]

Definitely ifox - looks minimal and professional.

would like the icons for this as a GTK theme.is at as minimal and professional as iPox...

I primarily use 708090-lite

I used that for a long time, but it stopped being updated for a while, so I switched to Breeze...which stopped being updated =\

EDIT: Ewwww. So I installed the 708090-lite theme and the buttons have gotten REALLY large (compared to what they were and what I'm using now.) I honestly only have 3 themed buttons visible on my entire window (back, forward and refresh [which doubles as a stop when a page is loading])...I just wish Breeze would start getting updates again D:

The problem I have with 708090 is that the buttons are all about 3 times as large as my current buttons...I tend to be VERY anal about screen real-estate (and I'm on a laptop now, so I'm even MORE conservative) Breeze's buttons are so tiny and out of the way...I use the TinyMenu extension to cram all of my menus into on small menu labeled "Menu", then I have my back, forward and refresh/stop button, then the address bar and I still have room for my stumble toolbar all on the very top Menu bar.

I'm loony :(

right click on your main toolbar

select: "customize..."

select: "use small icons"

save by selecting; "done"

That helps, but the padding around the buttons is still far too large. I think I'll just stick with using the Nightly Tester Tools extension to force compatibility for Breeze. The only problem I run into is the fact that the add-on dialogs don't function properly (because 1.5 didn't have them lumped together like that, I suppose) but I change that stuff so infrequently that changing my theme, restarting, making the changes (and changing my theme back) then restarting is worth the trouble.

[MedivhX]

I use the default Firefox theme. It's the best (at least to me)!!!

I am really not sure what you mean?

708090-lite has some of the smallest icons and padding I have ever seen...see the screenshot below:

I'm just sticking with the original until I get to know Linux a bit better.

from smallest to largest:

1. GrayModern2
2. default theme
3. 708090-lite

the padding is a bit bigger on 708090-lite comparatively speaking to the default theme, and the default theme is a bit bigger then GrayModern2....

very interesting....I have never noticed this...

I still love 708090-lite....sticking with this one for the beauty of the stark minimalism...which I love

Taking a second look GrayModern2 appears to be the most well developed of the three, I may stick with the GrayModern2 for a while again....

I always toggle between GrayModern2 and 708090-lite

The default firefox theme just doesn't seem to be well developed to me, at least in comparison to GrayModern2. The default theme appears to be as equally well developed to 708090-lite.

[Henry Rayker]

The icon padding is actually fairly large on that theme. The height of the navigation toolbar has a minimum size of the maximum of (The navigation icons, the location bar, the searchbar) This border (the padding) is visible by the fact that the separator between the file bar and the navigation toolbar is so far away from the location and search bars. My bar is approximately 4 pixels taller than the location bar with the Breeze theme, but it is incredibly large with the 708090 theme.

Attached is my toolbar using Breeze. I hope you can see what I mean.

I'm in it for the minimalistic nature of it as well. I just hope Breeze will get updated (or I'll just have to find the time to update it myself...I did that for a LONG time with 708090 and it just got to be a huge hassle.)

ahhhh...now I see what you mean, I will have to try Breeze out.

...as soon as it gets updated.

It's pretty in my eyes, officer.

If you find it beautiful thats all that counts.

my opinion is simply an opinion, I am sure that a lot of people don't like GrayModern2 which I am currently using.

[bonzodog]

I use the "Smallstark" theme, as seen in this screenshot -
