Firefox 3.6: Goodbye, themes; R.I.P.
Posted by Keilaron on Saturday, January 30. 2010 in Internet
Just a quick note:
I've upgraded to 3.6 on my main system, and again, while most extensions work, a few still do not and I'm waiting on them to be upgraded. The biggest change, though, is that themes no longer work (even if they lie about their compatibility); Instead, there are "personas", which work like Chrome's "themes": They're basically background images, which you can switch between instantly.
Which look good often depend on your configuration, but I've managed to find a few that I like and work well with my layout. However, this doesn't stop it from reminding me of the infamous Hotbar infection for IE. (With notes that all you need to do this in IE is to use TweakUI - at least, until Vista/IE8, which I don't know if they have any such settings.) While this change makes it easier to develop a look for Firefox, it does drop the overall customizability of the look a whole lot.
Goodbye, themes. Rest in peace.
