RedM Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I currently use Noia 2 (eXtreme) and have done for years. Something has broken with the latest update though so I thought I'd look around for a new one. I can't find anything I like though. I used to like Aluminium Kai but that's not been updated for FF3. I've tried some others but they just don't have the complete package feel of Noia. So, what do you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I use FF, but i wasnt aware of themes. Do they change simple things like the colour of the window top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Just the boggo one, I don't like themes generally. Apart from Win XP where I really prefer Royale Noir - so much easier on the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Default, small icons to maximise the size of the content windows - no fuss. I tried a few minimalist ones out a while ago but didn't really get on with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed doody. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:2/cat:all?sort=name Default, small icons to maximise the size of the content windows - no fuss. I tried a few minimalist ones out a while ago but didn't really get on with them. I really like Strata Aero: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7390 but it uses an odd font size that makes my bookmarks not all fit across the screen.

RobSheffield Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Indeed doody. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:2/cat:all?sort=name Oh right thanks!

RedM Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 NASA Night theme used here Hmm.... I've just installed that. Not bad. I still have the same issue with not all of my book marks fitting but I give it a try for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Themeless here as well, but then I'm boring and prefer function over form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 Themeless here as well, but then I'm boring and prefer function over form. I do normally but jeez, Ubuntu default is a tad too brown for my liking. EDIT: Too brown! How strong is this wine? Hmm... default is okay actually. It's not Noia though.

Hmm... default is okay actually. It's not Noia though. I'm on ubuntu as well, just change the system -> appearance, change the font a little, add a different background. Right click on the top and bottom panel (task bar style things) -> properties -> background white and give it a 50% transparency, brightens up it nicely.

I was using mac4lin until last week. Ubuntu that looks exactly like OS X. Then KDE 4.2 came out. I'm in hog heaven now. Function is great but when you can do so much more with very little overhead it seems rude not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I use Firefox but find it slow and awkward. Quite often it just hangs and pages take forever to load. The only reason I don't go back to Safari is Filezilla and the spell checker. oh, and I don't know about the themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 Chrome from Google is pretty good. I use it when I use Vista. Just waiting for a native Linux version before I jump ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
