FAIL. now dark/black GTK themes are completely unusable thanks to this. There is no way for me to change the colors/buttons away from a dark GTK theme which does not work inside Firefox.

setting GTK2_RC_FILES to another theme doesn’t work. So you are stuck with buttons and colors that ARENT DESIGNED for a white background.

FIREFOX = theme jailed.

At http://n2.nabble.com/FLUX—Horizontal-Menu-tp2017268p2102347.html and thereabouts:

* my agreement that Firefox 3 does look better than Firefox 2

* some critique, comparing a September 2007 vision (pleasing) with the June 2008 product (IMHO inferior).

Rewinding many years, what I most disliked about Netscape was its force-feeding of the word ‘Netscape’ in the title bar of every window.

Now, In this age of advertising, marketing and spamming frenzies, my dislike of branding and unnecessary differentiation is even greater.

I value Firefox: not for its whispering or shouting to me “I Am Firefox”. Rather, I value Firefox for: its utility.

(Still, there’s so much missing from Firefox, with some ancient but very significant bugs, that I prefer Safari.)

IMHO the variation from operating system guidelines, the sometimes Mozilla island-like approaches, is a mistake.

Without suggesting a change to Firefox, it’s interesting that I never find a problem with the combination button in Safari.

Maybe the good response from the application is a Mac OS X thing. Certainly, I find myself extraordinarily frustrated with stop button behaviour in IE on Windows.

It would have worked out a lot better if you would have given the option to the user what ‘graphics pack’ they wanted to display. Or at least a easy way of changing it.
