Re: Seamonkey2 - themes issues
Referring to the images above, this is what I'm seeing. In the first one, both buttons are disabled since I haven't navigated to another message. The second one, the Back one message button becomes active (Forward one message still inactive) since I navigated to a new message. The third one shows the Forward one message active (Back one message becomes inactive) right after clicking the previous Back one message button. Is this not what you're seeing? You are correct, I was used to using the buttons to move through the list, just up or down and was not paying attention to the real use of the buttons in All American.

The flag throbber takes up a large amount of vertical space so it is only displayed when you have the Customize Use Small Icons box unchecked. The downside is that in that mode, button text is not display (although, the hover-over button label does display the button name.) Also, the alternate throbber should not be a Netscape one but, rather, the Mozilla throbber that originally came with that theme. -- Sailfish - Netscape Champion Netscape/Mozilla Tips: http://www.ufaq.org/ , http://ilias.ca/ Rare Mozilla Stuff: https://www.projectit.com/ ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

There was a Thunderbird extension called More Layouts for Thunderbird. I tried to convince the author to port it to SeaMonkey but he didn't use SeaMonkey so had no interest.

Phil No it doesn't. you can click on the little dot in the center till the cows come home and nothing happens and there there is no dot at all on the left side for the side pane. when there was a functioning grippy you click on it and it would pop all the way down to bottom. click on it and it would pop back up to previous position.

The Littlemonkey theme has some silly looking phallic symbols to the left of the toolbars. Is is possible to get a traditional looking theme for Seamonkey 2.x, so that we can have a decent appearance for Seamonkey, like the themes from Seamonkey 1 or Netscape? Thank you in anticipation. Besides the other recommendations, you might try Classic Firefox Theme for SeaMonkey 0.0.4 at http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/addons/79489/classic_firefox_theme_for_seamonkey-0.0.4-sm.xpi. I just installed it, and it looks okay. However, I disabled it in favor of the Default SeaMonkey Theme 2.2, which I like better. I can't stand the SeaMonkey Modern Theme 2.2. -- David E.

So I installed Add-On Compatibility Reporter 0.8.5 June 6, 2011, SeaMonkey 2.0 - 2.4a1 https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/seamonkey/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/?src=api I could now enable Classic Default Theme 0.7 and it worked, bur some things were badly broken. Then I installed Seazilla Classic Theme 0.3, it's a fairly new theme Seazilla 0.3 June 16, 2011 ,SeaMonkey 2.0b1pre - 2.0.* A rebuild of the Mozilla1.x/Seamonkey1.x classic theme. https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/seamonkey/addon/seazilla/?src=api Seazilla works withh SM 2.1 after some tweaks. General verdict. Browser OK Mail/News/Mail/Mail-Composer OK Add-On manager OK, looks the same as the SM 2.1 Default Theme Bookmark manager/organizer, some minor things but usable. Pssword Mangager OK But If you click Window/ Adressbook you get an anomaly. The Delete/Remove Icon is not supported (verwijderen in Dutch) It creates a lot of space, you can drag it from the bar, rightclick and choose customize, drag it down and everthing looks ok. I Used a localized SM 2.1 NL version (Dutch),Windows 2000 Pro, Seazilla looks grey-ish. I don't know how this theme looks on Windows XP/Vista/Win7 Sreenshots, removed wrong icons Adressbook wrong delete-icon (verwijderen = delete) http://i55.tinypic.com/2ztgksh.jpg Drag wrong icon from the bar http://i51.tinypic.com/2py4akg.jpg Adresbook correct after removing icon http://i56.tinypic.com/ff0rc5.jpg The sync button can cause problems too.

Re: Seamonkey2 - themes issues
Interviewed by CNN on 04/07/2011 01:22, Bret Busby told the world: My unbuntu 8.04 on my old(ish) laptop computer has just upgraded the Seamonkey to version 2. It has changed the appearance of Seamonkey, to some silly looking theme, that is listed as the default theme. It appears that software developers design software for their own pleasure, and not for the users. The Classic theme will not install. The Littlemonkey theme has some silly looking phallic symbols to the left of the toolbars. Is is possible to get a traditional looking theme for Seamonkey 2.x, so that we can have a decent appearance for Seamonkey, like the themes from Seamonkey 1 or Netscape? Keep in mind that Seamonkey 2 uses the new toolkit from Firefox, not the old XPFE toolkit from Mozilla Application Suite. So adapting an old Mozilla theme to Seamonkey 2 is a lot more work than it was, say, to make a Mozilla 1.0 theme work in 1.7. So, your old custom themes will stop working. No easy fix for that. What you *can* do is to download a new theme compatible with your version of Seamonkey. KaiRo has recently posted his own custom themes for Seamonkey 2.1. These include the EarlyBlue theme, which is styled like old betas of the Mozilla Application Suite. I think that there are 2.0-compatible versions around, too, but I'm not sure where to get them. Johannes Schellen has Seamonkey 2.0-compatible versions of his Pinball and GrayModern themes at his site, but so far no 2.1-compatible versions. http://mozilla-themes.schellen.net/ You may find a few others here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/themes/ Most of them are for SM 2.0, but there are at least three (KaiRo's two and one mimicking an old Firefox theme) for 2.1 -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
