Either the guy/gal who created the original would have to update it, or one of us would have to rebuild it from scratch.

So what's the problem.....get to work.

I miss this theme too. If someone finds it updated, I'd load it on my browser again too. Are there any other good themes out there that I should know about?

not that I can see... I use the Harley Davidson theme... but really miss my LSU theme.... would even be happy with a Saints theme that worked..

Oy, I am a servant of da peoples. I'll see if i can figure out how to make an updated one. No time table, but i'll get it done.

Now to learn how to make a firefox theme....

PodKATT · 04-22-2009, 10:23 AM

Alright, it aint pretty but it works

LINK

OK, right click the above link and save it to a place you can find it. Then open the Add-ons window under the Tools menu. Select themes and the drag that file onto the window and follow the prompts.

It needs some work to fix firefox's new layout, some buttons are missing, and i realy dont like distributing anything with toonces on it, but it's a start.

Yeah Thanks Pod! That is really cool! And the scroll bars are missing on mine also, although I don't use them anyways!

lsudolemite · 04-22-2009, 11:19 AM

The alternative is to uninstall Firefox 3 (which I assume you have) and reinstall the final version of Firefox 2 (2.0.0.20), where the theme will fully work:

It looks phenomenal in Vista, and is the only reason I haven't upgraded to Firefox 3 yet.

scroll bar and my google search bar are the only difference I notice. The rest looks great. Sweet Job Pod!

cajunchilipeper · 04-22-2009, 01:22 PM

freakin genius.... let me know when you do an update.... how hard is it to do?....

PodKATT · 04-22-2009, 01:50 PM

getting it to work with firefox 3 only took my lunch break to figure out, but resizing and fixing all the broken icons and scroll bar will probably take the better part of a weekend.

And it needs to be de-toonced....

Mezmorizor · 04-22-2009, 06:30 PM

I noticed that the x's on the tabs are also missing. They work, but they're invisible.

cajunchilipeper · 05-01-2009, 08:30 AM

just wondering if there was any update on the theme?... not rushing, was just checking..

Just let the Cajun Billy Dee Williams work. After knowing this guy for 4 years I can vouch for him.. If he says he is gonna do something he will get it done!!!

He also has the Geaux Show to produce which takes up alot of his time and unlike the past 4 years...now he has a JOB!

In the meantime, if you want a quick fix for the LSU theme for Firefox 3, here's a simple way to get it working. It's not perfect; the tab colors are wrong and the scroll bar doesn't seem to work at all, but you may find that it'll do for now:

1. Get the original theme file off the internet (lsu_tigers-1.00-fix.jar).

2. This is a compressed file that can be opened with IZArc, Winzip, or some other file compression utility. This file should contain a number of folders and files. Extract the file "install.rdf" to your desktop and open it using a text editor like Notepad.

3. There is a line that says
<em:maxVersion>2.0.0.*</em:maxVersion>
Change the number from 2.0.0 to 4.0. This should make sure that this works on all versions of Firefox 3. Save the file, drag it back into the original .jar file, and replace the existing version of "install.rdf".

4. Go to Tools -> Addons. Click on themes. Drag and drop the modified jar file into the window, and follow the installation instructions.

I'm using FF3.6 and I created this theme for Personas.
