Themes

What themes are compatible with 7.1

It appears that there are only TWO?

I rather like the Toy Factory, but I get a message that it is not compatible with 7.1

 

vegaspat,

It's a risk taking venture to add a Theme. However, if you backup your Profile, and don't mind reinstalling Netscape, here are some Themes which Holger Metzger mentions in his Compact 7.1 Release Notes:

The following theme(s) seem to work ok with Netscape 7.1 (make sure you select a theme for Mozilla 1.3 or better 1.4):
- http://themes.mozdev.org/themes/orbit.html
- http://themes.mozdev.org/themes/skypilot.html
- http://themes.mozdev.org/themes/blue.html (has problems with the Home button, but works fine otherwise!)
- http://themes.mozdev.org/themes/lopburi.html
- http://themes.mozdev.org/themes/nautipolis.html
- http://themes.mozdev.org/themes/lofi.html

There are Themes listed at mozilla.org which may, or may not be compatible:
http://themes.mozdev.org/

My experience is to use Modern, and have a stable browser.

Ramona,

Thanks for the tip. I don't think I am in to taking any chances.

 

Hey vegaspat,

Didn't think so...

My experience with Themes has been excellent, if you get them from http://themes.mozdev.org They do not even let me install a theme which is not compatible.
There is an updated version of the Toy Factory theme, which I am using with NS7.1.
Some of the new themes may not show up until after restarting Netscape, so that you will have to restart it once to show up, and the second time to install, after selecting it.
My installations of themes has been easier with the Theme Installer Add-on.

 

Theme Installer Add-on.

What is the Theme Installer Add-on?

I took a look at the site you and Ramona mentioned, but wouldn't even consider clicking on something that I know nothing about.

I seem to get in more trouble experimenting with things. <G>

 

Hi vegaspat,

Look at this page for more information on the Themer add-on:
