I think you will agree with me that it is a beautiful alternative for the theme.
To use it, you must first install the latest version of the theme, available here and then select the Venerable Modern theme. The subskin is available in both the Mozilla and Netscape versions.
Then, you simply add the following to your userChrome.css file:
Code: Select all
/*
* Enable the Venerable Chrome Modern theme subskin
*/
@import url("chrome://global/skin/subskin/VCMstyles.css");
The subskin also skins the scrollbars, as can be seen. However, if you want the subskin's scrollbars in the content pane, you'll need to add the following to your userContent.css file:
Code: Select all
/*
* Enable the Venerable Chrome Modern scrollbars in the content window
*/
@import url("chrome://global/skin/subskin/VCMscrollbars.css");
otherwise, the standard Venerable Modern scrollbars will be displayed in the content area. Note: there is a nasty bug in the Mozilla (and Firefox, for that matter) trunks that makes this userContent.css override essential if using the theme there. This isn't a problem with 1.5 or 1.6 (nor Firebird 0.8 milestone) versions.
Lastly, I claim no ownership nor authorship for this subskin. Please direct all complements on it to storm119 exclusively. Since storm119 is the rightful owner, all suggestions for modifications to it need also be directed there, unless there is a problem with the subskin integration portion, in which case, I am the responsible party.
