      @bitshift Because you're Japanese, you guys don't usually use Firefox.

      @bitshift Is it a dark theme?

        @toksyuryel No, but the same guy does a handful of other themes, mostly dark ones. It was via liking everything else about those, but not liking the darkness, that I encountered SilverGlow. So yeah, basically give those a look.

            @toksyuryel https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/5549109/ is the list of his themes (plenty of them are greyed out on Firefox 14, but if that's a problem, I can confirm that the ones marked compatible with 13 still work just fine if you disable compatibility checking).

              @bitshift I'm still using 13. Was 14 released?

                @toksyuryel Nope, beta. I pretty much always run with the beta update channel, since it's just as stable as release most of the time. And normally, addons are considered compatible by default (it was Fx10 that made that change, iirc), but these fall into one of the exceptions to that - namely, having a minVersion in the 3.x range. I guess with the big changes from 3.x to 4, there's enough changes that they can't be confident of stuff still working on upgrade if it has 3.x compatibility code.

                  @bitshift The betas aren't in the main portage tree, so I'd have to go to some effort to actually use it and I don't really care enough.

            @toksyuryel As for a specific theme... I'd probably recommend https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/8-ultimo/, since it looks the cleanest to me, while still being dark. Also has the same lovely button style as SilverGlow, so there's that.

              @bitshift Nearly all of the buttons are hidden by Pentadactyl for me, heh. It's pretty much just for the context menu and the tab bar.

              @bitshift Hm, damn. It looks like I can't use a theme and a persona at the same time. Guess I'm not gonna be using a theme then. Frustrating.

                @toksyuryel Well, you can use themes that explicitly support personas. But I can't think of any off the top of my head, so... yeah, pretty much. :<

                  @bitshift The one you linked looks pretty nice, but unfortunately I can't use it and keep my Luna persona ☹ gotta side with the best pony here.
