Favourite Firefox skins
 
Just wondering what everyone's favourite FF skins were.

I like the chavvy bling one but fancy a change- and didn't know which ones to get!

These are great:

https://addons.update.mozilla.org/th...=MacOSX&id=414
https://addons.update.mozilla.org/th...os=MacOSX&id=5

Don't worry about the Mac OSX thing in the URL - Firefox themes work on any OS.

I use the PlastikFoxKde one (Richard's first link). Looks rather simple, but looks nice enough.

I tried to update Extreme Noia and got an error message. Anyway, when I restared FF it looked like this !

All the menu's are blank too. What do I do ??

I uninstalled and reinstalled FF, but its still the same.

Ouch.
I'd delete your profile folder and start from scratch.
To do this go to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USERNAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\XXXXXXX.default, copy your bookmarks.html and cookies.txt to your desktop then delete the entire C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USERNAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ directory.
Install Firefox, start it up then close it as soon as you see the start page.
Copy bookmarks.html and cookies.txt into the new profile directory and you're sorted. :)

Eek. You'd need to do something with the theme folder I reckon.

Aside every time I loaded BBC it did something like that today, was pretty annoying until I cleared the cache. :)

And Coventry City- what's all that about then? Talk about relegation...

If you are running XP then you do, it's just hidden.
Go to Tools>Folder Options>View tab and click on "show hidden files and folders".
