@stridoca: I'm with nuttysman, this theme is for space lovers. But if you just want to go without the big background image in empty tabs, use this in your userContent.css instead:
Update 2009-May-20: The use of userContent.css to style empty tabs with NASA Night Launch is now un-recommended. There's a better way using Stylish. See this post later in this thread for full details.

Yes it did work but without Tb-specific icons. The icons are the default Tb icons.
To get it to work:
1. in the jar file for the theme, edit the file install.rdf 2. in install.rdf, remove the comments from the following section of code so it looks like this:

No prob. I put full-sized version of your screenshot on Photobucket but it got shrunk hmmm. Do you have a way for me to send it to you.
Send me a PM with the details (email/ Live Mesenger........)
I've been using this extension since July 3rd. I love it. I have a few suggestions to make. I have many extensions installed. One of them is Show MyIP. My server sits behind a dedicated firewall/router (IpCop). So this extension is nice to have. The only problem is that the status bar icon for this is only two black letters, "IP". Need I say more! When the icon is clicked however, the numbers are white. I don't know if there is any way to fix this or not. But if there is something that can be done, I am looking forward to it.
mcdavis941, I like and appreciate your signature. Thank You!
I'm sorry to hear that. It's a cool extension, but the way they coded it, there's no way for the theme to change the icons they're using.
The best we could do is write a userChrome.css rule for you to change the background color of that part of the statusbar to something (a lighter color) that would contrast better. If you want that, I'll write it for you. Just let me know.
(You could also contact the extension developer and see if they want to issue an update with an icon that has a light border around the dark text so it's visible no matter what theme the user has chosen.)
