Anyone, please fix while I still live :mrgreen:

Moonchild created this theme, I'm sure he'll look into it when he finds the time.

The default theme is perfectly fine by the way - thanks for the 2.1.0 update, athenian200.

This is my preferred theme, too.

On a whim and a hope-this-works, I changed the

Code: Select all

maxVersion
to

Code: Select all

2.1.*
in the

Code: Select all

install.rdf
and re-packed the xpi. So far, no problems. It worked for me.

When Moonchild gets the time to update the theme, I'll switch to that, of course.

Version 2.1.0 has been published to match Epyrus of the same version.
I didn't see any issues with casual inspection, so there are no changes other than compatibility in the installer manifest.
Please do let me know if you run into theme issues.

Sorry for the delay, I've had to juggle a lot of things and was apparently so short on sleep I just now woke up after a solid 12 hour rest :coffee:

Are there any text/graphic rendering differences between the Classic and the default theme? I am getting this slightly "blurry" vibe from the default, similar -but not as strong- to "modern" Firefox/Thunderbird versions.

May be it's again related to the various video driver/hardware acceleration/monitor output intricate combinations.

A theme doesn't generally change rendering... Although if there's a difference between SVG and PNG for icons, for example, then that could give differences in how they look at varying resolutions.

And working well for me too (the official version, that is).

Thanks to you, Moonchild.
