Review of various firefox themes...

Yes, I'm bored. I'll edit this entry as I try more:

Firecat: Nice, purdy... but it doesn't have the image to say when the page is done loading. No doubt I could get that information from the status bar, but I hate using the status bar. It distracts me.

Blue: Pretty, has an image which'll tell me if the page is loaded... but when you have more than one tab, the tab bar thing says mozilla firefox. Scary, distracting, no. Not for me, thanks.

Noia lite:
Well, it solved the earlier two problems, and it's pretty and clean. Not especially *interesting*, though. Still, it's the favorite of those I've tried. *nodnodnod*

Scribbliesbrite:
I'm torn. On the one hand, it's bright and colorful and fun. On the other hand, it *is* slightly distracting, and the icons don't really look good when small.

Charamel (http://members.shaw.ca/lucx/) looks pretty. And Qute (https://addons.update.mozilla.org/themes/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&version=1.0&os=Windows&id=7) is excellent for the old-school Firefox experience.

My favorites are Phoenity and Red Cats Green Flavor. There's an extension that lets you change what shows up on the tab bars... lemme see if I can find it.

*loads Blue* Ooooh. I see what you meant. Yeah, I don't like that.

I like (and use) Red Cats Green Flavor, too.
