Firefox themes

Tuesday, July 4, 2006 by vikram sheorey | Discussion: Search Engines

Hi, I've just downloaded Firefox to have a look at it. In addition to this I've also downloaded one of their themes.

I was previously using IE6 and WB 5. The theme for Firefox has not been completely applied and there seems to be a mixture of WB theme and the Firefox one.

I have not uninstalled IE6 but then again I have closed all the sites previously accessed with it and am just playing with Firefox solely.

Do I need to uninstall the WB application to get the Firefox theme to be totaly applied and if so then will I lose the ability to go back to WB if I want to go back to IE?

It's the paid for version of WB BTW.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks

not 100% sure but open windowblinds===>per application===>add per application setting===>choose firefox===>total exclusion===> click ok====> apply changes. it should ignore firefox and the firefox theme should be the only one skinning it.

WB doen't fully skin FF since FF skins in it's own way.  It does skin the window edges nicely.

But yes, if you just want to see the FF theme in it's entirety then use the per applications to exclude FF from being skinned.

this may simply be a case of you thinking Firefox themes cover more ground than they actually do. Most Firefox themes only skin what's inside the border of the window... and don't really touch the window header or buttons...

Thanks to all of you. You're all right.

One last question though, are the min/max/close buttons meant to be totally missing from the window on Firefox?

The min/max/close buttons are the same for any open window. FireFox has them visible also.
