Making a Theme (Early 2.15 Betas)

Obsolete
Making a theme:
- The background picture must be one word (no spaces!)
- The back button must also be one word (still no spaces!)
The "@name" is the style's name.
The "@author" is your username, or whatever you want the author to be.
The "background-image" is the name of the background picture (with extension!)
The "background-repeat" is whether or not the background picture will be repeated (Possible values: Repeat and No).
The "background-color" is the Hex color code for the color, or transparent.
The second "background-image" is the name of the Back arrow (with extension!)
The "margin:" is the pixels in between the two thumbnails.
(not sure what the ".title img" is).
Here's an example of a finished Style.css file:
/**
* @name Vista Aero
* @author Mafia_Penguin
**/
body {
background-image: url(vista.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat;
background-color: transparent;
}
.back {
background-image: url(back.png);
}
#grid, .thumbnail {
margin: 2;
}
.title img {
display: none;
visibility: hidden;
}
.thumbnail {
background-color: transparent;
border: 1px solid transparent;
opacity: 1.0;
}
.title {
visibility: hidden;
color: transparent;
background-color: transparent;
border-top: 1px solid transparent;
}
div.thumbnail:hover, .hover {
background-color: transparent;
border: 1px solid transparent;
margin: 0;
opacity: 1;
}
div.thumbnail:hover .title, .hover .title {
color: transparent;
background-color:
transparent;
border-top: 1px solid transparent;
}

Submitted by gumanov on Mon, 12/22/2008 - 18:20hmm weird.im also experimenting with themes. having same issues.
still looking into it.
i hope that in the final release FD will have the ability to create a theme based on current settings.. =D
so users can quickly customize FD, save it as a theme, and share.
sort of working now..
make a .zip, make sure to rename the "name" in the css style..
and when .zip is on desktop, import it ..

but we should not get ahead of ourselves.
i think there should be a way of creating a theme within FD, from current settings..
no messing with .zips .css..
just customize, save, and share.
(favicon setting should also be part of the theme...whether hidden or not)

i tried your vista aero theme.. could not get it to work no matter what i did..
i even tried replacing my images with yours and changing the background image name in the css, and it didnt work O.o
!!
hmm, did some renaming and some editing, it seems to be working now (restarted firefox too)
http://mafi0z.com/VistaAero.zip
download that, and change whatever you dont like in the css..and reupload to yur googlepage.
it seems that you must restart firefox to get background images to work..after importing a new theme..
(but your css had the wrong image name, which caused an issue at first)
