Firefox themes. How to create your own theme for Mozilla Firefox. Control and theme change

Themes for Mozilla. Where to download and how to install.

There are different ways to change the appearance of the browser. I'll tell you about two of them.

Free themes for Mozilla Firefox

The theme will completely change the design of your browser. This is done very simply. Just go to the add-ons website in the topics section. Select a category and start browsing topics.

After the topic you like you can download and install in firefox.

Installation.

After installation, restart the browser and see the new firefox design.

If you don’t like the topic, you can easily delete it. To do this we go to Tools - Add-ons - Appearance. Select a topic and click Delete.

This is what concerns topics. Themes completely change the design of the browser. But there is another tool that partially changes the appearance of Mozila - this is an add-on for Mozila - Personas.

Addition for Mozilla Personas

Add-ons or also called plugins are some extensions or gadgets that make your browser more functional. Read more in this note.

The Personas add-on changes the skin of the Mozilla Firefox browser. This is the plugin I use. Notice what the top of my browser looks like. It is designed in Mozilla style.

There are skins on a variety of topics. In general, the tastes of many users are taken into account.

The add-on can be downloaded and installed from this link. Read how to install the add-on. After installing the add-on in the add-ons panel ( if it is displayed for you, if not, go to View - Toolbar, there check the add-ons panel checkbox) the face of a fox will appear. If you click on it, a menu will appear in which you can select a skin.

And what’s interesting is that you just move your mouse over the skin’s thumbnail and it’s immediately loaded into the browser, but not installed. Those. There is a viewing mode. If you like it, just click on the skin thumbnail and it will install.

The skins can also be viewed on the Personas website. The variety is enormous.

These are the goodies and decorations.

Firefox themes are special add-ons for the graphic design of the browser. Using them, you can set a different background in the control panel, change the appearance of buttons, and change the font color on the tabs.

For Mazil you can download two types of themes:

Background ones are “light” themes. They only change the background image in the top panel of FF and its color scheme.

Full themes - perform more serious modifications.

This article will tell you how to use themes: download, switch, delete them.

How to go to the theme gallery?

You can perform this procedure in two ways:

Method No. 1: through FF settings

1. In the menu, click: section “Tools” → item “Add-ons”.

2. Open the Appearance tab.

Method number 2: offsite

1. Go to the page - https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/.

2. Hover over the “Topics” section to select the category of interest (for example, best). Or just click on a section to quickly go to the gallery.

3. The “Topics” block contains TOPs and categories on different topics. Use this menu or select a design on the main page “Favorites...”.

4. Hover over the block of the topic you like. The browser will immediately accept its graphic add-ons. If this option suits you, click the “Add” button. The add-on will be automatically installed and activated in your web browser.

Attention! If you want to create your own skin for FF, click the “Submit a new theme” button under the menu and the “Learn more” link. These pages contain guides and recommendations for creating a graphic cover.

How to change and delete design?

To manage the graphic design in the menu, open: Tools → Add-ons → Appearance.

To completely remove a topic from FF, click “Delete” in its block.

To temporarily deactivate, use the “Disable” command. Please note that the pre-installed skins “Standard”, “Light”, “Dark” (built into Firefox) can only be disabled.

When you activate a theme in the customization panel, the previous one is automatically disabled.

Alternative graphic interface design options are an excellent opportunity to customize the appearance of the browser according to your interests and taste preferences.

Continuing our favorite series, I would like to urgently release another article, related, this time, not just to comfort, but also to the aesthetic pleasure of working with Mozilla Firefox. Actually, the fact is that recently a whole, so to speak, section of add-ons called Personas was released.

In fact, this is one addition designed to personalize and decorate your FF in every possible way (by FF I mean Mozilla FireFox), making your stay in it even more comfortable and enjoyable.

Personas is a beautiful extension for Firefox

Actually, what is Personas. This is an addition that allows you to attach skins to FF. No, no - not themes, but skins. Themes are rather something global, changing icons, scroll bars, block formats, etc., etc., and skins...

Skins are something like war paint that sticks on top of any theme and pleasantly diversifies the browser. A sort of wallpaper, but not for the desktop, but for the browser. And everything would be fine, but the fact is that there are as many as 37,000 of these skins (at the time of writing), and they can be changed simply and clearly - with a light click of the mouse. Moreover, by simply pointing a skin at a picture, you will immediately see what it will look like, which allows you to quickly and easily choose what you like best. To be honest, I somehow didn’t expect that when I went to the page for choosing these very skins, I would sit there for about half an hour, trying to choose what I liked best, and it’s not that I don’t like anything - on the contrary, the choice is so huge, that I like a lot, and it’s so easy to switch that I became very interested in this entertaining process :)

In general, I won’t keep you ranting - go try it! :)

Installation

First, install the plugin itself:

To install the addon, go to its page, namely .
Click on the green button “ Get Personas For FireFox - Free“
In the pop-up window, wait three (or five, I don’t remember) seconds and click the “Install” button
After installation is complete, press the “ Restart FireFox” or restart the browser manually.
Installation completed.

Now let's go to the page with skins, i.e. , and move the mouse over the picture of any skin. Just point it, no need to click. Then we wait a little, see if we like the new look or not. If you like it, then left-click on the place where you held the mouse and press the " " button. If you don’t like it, then move the mouse to another skin, look, and so on in a circle until you choose what you like :)
I recommend delving into the Solid section - the topics there are nicer because they are not littered with pictures, but to each his own ;)

Not only many familiar extensions stopped working, but also design themes. In particular, we lost several excellent dark themes that were quite popular.

For example, the FT DeepDark theme from the author steva attracted more than 11 thousand users. However, now next to it, as well as opposite many other design themes, in the official catalog there is an inscription: “This add-on is not compatible with your version of Firefox.”

It's a shame. However, today we decided to remind you that Firefox has built-in themes, including dark.

Enable dark theme

If you didn’t know this at all before, then finding these topics won’t be difficult. Open the main page and go to the “edit” section.

At the bottom of the tab that opens there is a button that hides the theme selection menu. There are several options, including a light theme, a green “pastel gradient” and a light brown “web browser renaissance” theme. There is also a blue theme with stars called “space fantasy”. But we are interested in Firefox's dark theme:

By the way, if you don’t like the changes made and want to return the original design, then the standard Firefox theme, as you can see, is located there. Sometimes when changing themes, its name changes to English Default. Don't worry: it's still the same basic default theme.

But let's return to the dark. This is what she looks like:

The active tab is dark, the background tabs are even darker (closer to the black theme). The entire toolbar and address bar also become completely dark. The menu and other interface elements, however, remain the same.

We also remind you that starting from version 57, you can change the size of interface elements:

As a result, this is what the dark theme will look like in its compact form:

By reducing the browser header and all the icons on it, the interface will take up less space, and the round back button will be replaced with a rectangular one.

Tired of its monotonous appearance, pleasant add-ons have been developed that allow you to change the appearance of the browser, making its shell more colorful and interesting to perceive. In this article we will look at the issue regarding Themes for the Mazil web browser.

Firefox Themes

A theme in the Firefox browser is a special additional extension that partially or completely changes the visual display of the Firefox search engine. Themes transform the shell and visual content of the browser, from the toolbar to the buttons and switches on the pages.

There are two types of Themes for Mozilla Browser:

Background Themes for Mozilla Firefox. With this tool you can change the color and pattern in the background of the toolbar. It has a small download size and is very easy to install.

Full Themes for Mozilla Firefox are Themes that completely change the entire external image of the web search engine. They are already more “heavy”, and require restarting the browser to change the appearance of the browser.

How to set up a Theme in Mazila Firefox

To set up themes you need to:

Launch the browser, open the menu and select the “Add-ons” option.

You will see a page of the Internet resource “mozilla.org”. Under the huge word “Add-ons” there is an item “TOPICS”. Use the mouse cursor to select the required group and proceed to preview.

To visually evaluate a Topic, you just need to hover your cursor over it.

If a Theme catches your eye, by clicking the “+ Add” button, the user applies it to his Internet browser after installation.

How to change Theme in Firefox

To change the appearance of the toolbar, you can also select any other theme you like on the Internet resource “mozilla.org” and add it to your search engine.

To change between added Themes, you need to launch the browser - open the menu - select “Add-ons” - select “Appearance” on the left side of the window and click the “Enable” button to the left of the desired theme.

In this way, you can easily change the appearance of your Internet browser, customizing it to suit your mood.
