I'm friends with him, and am using his theme (his v5 theme should be out this week by the way).

I will try to help you as much as I can. First what version of Firefox are you using?

 

[DarkDavil]

the minefield one.. 3.7a1 pre. But i tried this both in normal FF, uninstall minefield, and then installed FF 3.5.X or whatever is latest at the moment. I believe if i could get a .zip file of this i could do this. I could extract the .jar file to desktop, and copy it into my add-ons windows?

Is that correct?

BTW: For all who wanna test out the FF 3.6 beta, its out, its in a trunk build jst google it

DOUBLE EDIT: DONEEE!!!!!! YAy!! I downloaded the .jar file from withen chrome browser. Moved it into my desktop. Drag+dropped the .jar file into my add-ons window. Please personally thank "Spew" for this great theme, and that he will be getting a personal donation Courtesy of DD ^^

Anyways, download it again from here. http://www.deviantart.com/download/132191373/Strata40_Beta_v0_4_3_by_SpewBoy.jar

Take that file you download (don't extract it or anything, leave it as it is).

Open Firefox, Open the addon's window, and drag that file into the addon's window. Should be able to take over from there.

I'll just link him to that post for you. I have him added on DeviantART.

Aww ^^

I've a question..

Since i really wanted the omnibar function and also the fission...(which arent compatible with 3.7a1...), i downgraded to normal Mozilla ^^ BUT... is everything required to make it look great work in 3.6 beta?

This is wut mine looks like - including fission working!



Or is their an add-on that can remove the ENTIRE menu bar? In FF Normal? In FF 3.6? In FF 3.7..?

You should use Nightly Tester Tools in order to get the addons working properly on non-compatible builds.

For the removal of the menu you were describing, install Perosnal Menu and go to the Advanced tab in the Personal Menu addon options and select "Hide toolbar" and make sure "Show temp. when pressing alt" is checked.

Here is a list of all the addons needed. Though you really should just wait until he releases v5 as it will only require 2 or 3 addon's total.

Install the nightly tool first, restart Firefox, then go to the other links and install.

Nightly Tester Tool
Fission
Omnibar
Personal Menu

Go to the addon's screen and at the bottom there should be an Override All Compatibility. Select it, restart FF, see if that works.

Haha, alright. I'll let you know when the 5th version of his theme is released.

Ive been using it for a week and its really nice. Ive since upgraded firefox to 3.6b1 so some of the addons that the theme requires dont work. I hope they update them soon.
