joys....

fucking with firefox, yum yum...  ^^

i wasn't too thrilled with the tabs in ff2.0, so i decided to tweak the tabbar a bit.  Then i was like, hey, a little change every now and then is good, neh?  And so.... i screwed around some with firefox.... And i shall provide codes/extensions in case you see something you like. Plus i'm just THAT bored....

The outcome: (and yes, the pics aren't so hot, but i didnt want to make them so big.... size and dimention wise... >_< )

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

1) moved the location/search bars to the top bar
2) searchbar autosizer extension
3) i was NOT thrilled with the stupid magnifying glass next to the searchbar.  sooooo, i took it out.  ^^ and while i was at it, i took out
    the arrow next to the searchengine icon.  However, i had to go visit a file that i hadn't opened in awhile... the userChrome... >_< 
    anywho, if you care to go as far as i did and do some tweaking, here's the code, just copy and paste into the userChrome.css file...
            /* removes the go button in the SEARCHbar */
            .search-go-button-stack { display: none !important; }
            #searchbar { margin-right: 1em !important; }
            /* Remove the drop arrow in the Search bar and correct icon position */
            .search-proxy-button-dropmarker { display:none !important; }
            .searchbar-dropmarker-image {display: none !important;}
            #search-proxy-button { margin-top: 1px !important;
            margin-left: -2px !important; margin-right: 2px !important; }
4) i completely moved the tabbar :D with no extensions. yessiree, straight from editing the userChrome file!! and it took awhile.  There are
    so many messed up codes on the internet, and i just found one and ended up tweaking it a bit...
    a)
        /*tabbar -> left*/
        #content > tabbox { -moz-box-orient: horizontal;}
        .tabbrowser-strip { -moz-box-orient: vertical; overflow: -moz-scrollbars-vertical; }
        .tabbrowser-tabs { -moz-box-orient: horizontal; min-width: 10ex; -moz-box-align: start; }
        .tabbrowser-tabs > stack > vbox > hbox > hbox { -moz-box-orient: vertical; -moz-box-align: stretch; }
        .tabbrowser-tabs > stack > vbox > hbox > tab { -moz-box-align: start; -moz-box-orient: horizontal; }
    yes, indeed it does say 'left' but mine is on the right, but i have an extension  that is messing with it.  if you don't have an extensions for the
    tabs, then you change the first line (starting at "#content") to
        #content > tabbox { -moz-box-orient: horizontal; -moz-box-direction: reverse; }
    b) it took me a looooooong time to get the damn scrollbar to work.... >P (that's the 'overflow: -moz-scrollbars-vertical; ' in the code...)
    you know,just to let you know... cuz it really did take awhile to have the tabs all nice and stacked vertically and have that scrollbar....
5) looks like the "reload icon", right? :D  well,when you're loading a page it becomes the "stop icon". You know, to free up some space... :P
       /* Show Stop and Reload buttons smartly*/
       #stop-button[disabled] {    display: none;}
       #stop-button:not([disabled]) + #reload-button { display: none; }
6) enhanced history manager extension - veeeeeeery nice extention.  why firefox does not come with this already installed is a mystery to me.
    this will give you the url, the title, when you last visited the page, and a search feature

    (whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy has dgray not been updaaateeeeeeeeeeeeed???? ;_;)
7) all-in-one sidebar extension -

I know you like being able to code all of that yourself, but if you want to do the same thing as some of that (like the Stop/Reload button) without all that effort, check out the extension UI Tweaker. I think you might like it. Otherwise, have fun with the tweaking! :D

PS. Sorry I haven't been in touch in a long while. Work has been keeping me busy, along with other things. We really should talk more, but I got a new phone and don't have your number in it. :( Give me a call or text if you want to hang out or just talk.
