Beta of Firefox B5 theme (dark)
Random Chaos
Actually Carefully-selected Order in disguise
in Zocalo v2.0
Ok, I have been working on modding up a Firefox skin with a B5 theme to it. I have a beta (v0.5) now. It still has some icons I haven't changed.
What I am asking is people download it and give me feed back. I've listed on the temp webpage I stuck up what areas I really need feedback on and what visual bugs I know still exist.
It is a dark blue-grey based theme. I am planning to make a light blue-grey based theme eventually, but I am trying to get one finished before I start a 2nd one.
Here is the beta webpage:

Preview:
It is a mod of the Noia Extreme theme and is arround 950kb.
BTW: If anyone wants to volunteer time making some of the icons I haven't done...I'd welcome the help. Most icons without yellow on them I have done minimal work on.
Now I await feedback :)

2 B5 icons, thunderbolts appear randomly, a G'Quan on the download page, a purple/green throbber, a whitestar on the "about firefox" page. I plan to put more renderings in the Options menu.
Speaking of renderings, can anyone get me a render of the B5 station with transparent alpha backdrop (preferably saved as a PNG file with alpha data)? I'd like to use the station somewhere, but A% hasn't converted one to Blender yet :)
[B]Looks good, except a little dark for me (as you say, will be fixed in time) and the scrollbar is too much concentrated yellow. :) [/B][/QUOTE]
Yes...I was noticing that about the scrollbar being yellow. I am trying to figure out how to fix it and yet not lose the gold/grey theme idea. The scrollbar color change was one of the last things I did before uploading the beta...and I was trying to get the beta up before I went to sleep.
Any ideas on the scroll bar?
Oh - and if anyone suggests something should be Green or Purple, only way that is getting in is if there is an equal balance of both colors in whatever image it is.
My main gripe at the moment is that the folder icon on the toolbar does not change when it's expanded, and same thing goes for RSS feeds.
[B]Looks good overall.

Well, I had a changing version...and it looked real odd with the grey box over it. So I removed it.
One other thing I noticed is that when a page is loading, the top right corner icon (which is a B5 logo by default) keeps alternating between Purple and Green. Is that an intentional effect (intential, for obvious reasons)?
As for the throbber...yeah...thats intentional. Purple and Green are endlessly warring. Only occasionally do we get a respit on B5. :D
The yellow scroll bar is too yellow, and I'm finding the active tab to not realy fit the rest of the theme.
I won't have time to do any work on the theme until next week.
Psi-killer: Site occasionally goes down for short periods of time (generally less then 5 minutes) - my guess is during data backup, though I am not sure. Try again is all I can say.
