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!

Re: Favourite Firefox skins

These are great:
https://addons.update.mozilla.org/th...=MacOSX&id=213
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.

Re: Favourite Firefox skins

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

Re: Favourite Firefox skins

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

Re: Favourite Firefox skins

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...

Re: Favourite Firefox skins

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".
