Firefox Skins?

Where are they

Published on January 9, 2005 By Sleeping Dragon In WinCustomize Talk

Brad put out a feeler question about what new categories we would like to have here at WC. One of the biggest requests was that we get a section for FireFox skins. Apparently Deviant Art is overflowing with them, and I know that Brad took a look at DA and agreed we should have one.

Where are the skins? We have a category that has remained at "0" skins since the day it was opened. Do those skins take longer to make than others, or are people just going to DA out of habit and selection, or is there really not a need?

Just curious, after so many people requested it, why there are not skins. Is anyone working on one?

Now this sucks. It crashes the browser if you try to install my skin. I don't know how to delete what I submitted. I thought I had it but it's not there till I started to mess with things and I don't know what is wrong.

Weaksid,

Make a post here http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=18 they've been skinning FF for much longer than we have.

Good luck!

Thanks, I posted a new topic since I couldn't find the answer in any of the threads. I have school here soon so hopefully I can get on the internet there and see if anybody can help me.

I have the file fixed but someone said there was still a problem. Can anyone here check it out and let me know what they found? I worked on it in class for several hours and got it working. I was able to drag it over to my theme menu and it installed and stayed without any errors. I uninstalled and reinstalled it several times to make sure.

Thanks.

Weaksid...

When I install it I get the default FF icon, and only the Tabs are skinned. Question: Did you get a GUID from irc.mozilla.org?

No, I actually got it from GUIDGEN.exe that was in my visual basic program. That could be the reason then. If you have a skin with the same GUID, it will blend together a little.

There, I went through the IRC channel and got a GUID then reposted. It should be updated now. Uninstall the prevous one and try the fixed file. Let me know if that worked?
