Well, you posted as anonymous but you’re a Mozilla Links reader so give this a shot.

Either copy and paste the text into your userChrome.css, or add it as a new userstyle in Stylish.

Not sure if I covered everything such as the print preview window, but it worked just fine in Fx 3.5 RC2.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been using the Sky Plus theme ever since I heard about it from here. But that theme hasn’t been updated since forever, and now is especially a crucial time since I found out the new HTML 5 videos actually _need_ support from the theme itself… Simply bumping the compatibility info won’t do anymore.

Now FoxWorld is decent but it just has one little issue with my setup. Since I deactivated the Themes service in windows xp, I basically run with the old classic windows theme and it uses this massively ugly eyesore of a scroll bar…
And FoxWorld appears to be using the native scroll bar from the OS, so it looks _really_ ugly on my setup.

Anyone knows how I steal Sky Plus’s scroll bars and put them into FoxWorld?

Simple and clean. Kind of soothing too.
