Menu: View/Apply Themes/Get New Theme ==> x.themes.org
( http://x.themes.org/viewresources.phtml?type=chrome )

click on 'quick' for theme; mozilla installs for you.duh?
'ice' is nice if you like gnome.

 moz uses *.xpi files to install themes so not any ''mozilla''
theme will do 'cause some so-called mozilla themes are _not_ xpi;
in fact they are just regular _desktop_ themes and the 'mozilla'
part of name means designer added data to the theme to make it
moz compatible...supposedly. manual install is not as much fun +
changes desktop.

moz does this! albeit not very well yet.:( ->it applies the
desktop gtk theme from the ~/.gtkrc file to "Classic" skin but
does not apply correctly; do not work with 'Modern' or other
applied themes;you _must_ use "Classic" moz skin for 'Desktop'
theme to be applied to moz.
set moz theme type to "Classic"; update your theme (i.e.,.gtkrc
file) to the theme you want to use on your desktop and restart
moz(not supposed to have to do that but gtk theming still broke a
bit).
The 'theme' is applied to moz; if not, your permissions might be
too tight on ~/.gtkrc file. Works here!!!

Have to use  http://www.themes.org/themesearch.phtml but these
are _desktop_ themes with moz addins + old ones are not good for
moz 'cause moz theming has changed a lot in last year.  Best to
goto x.themes.org and get one for version of moz running.


> Be carefull, themes don't install correctly as standard users

nightlys don't 'apply' very good as root either unless restart
moz.

please, what bug\fix say this?

it pretty messed up right now.:(  
moz update wrong display sections for 'classic' or update correct
but use wrong data... or whatever; it can give 'classic' a
multi-colored look like a chameleon. 
Too bad cause 'Classic' could take the same theme as the rest of
the desktop and look _real_ purty - better than 'modern',imo.
