Well, I installed Firefox 2.0 on my laptop since that's the computer I use least. The reason I picked that computer is that if anything went wrong, or if I didn't like it, it was not a horrible loss. The first thing I noticed was that the new theme is terrible. When I went from Firefox 1 to 1.5, I didn't mind the theme and gave up on maintaining Pinball for Firefox. However, the original artwork creator, Johannes Schellen, continued to maintain Modern Pinball for Firefox. Not only that, but he's kept it compatible with 1.5 and now 2.0. So when I installed Firefox 2 and didn't like the default theme, I knew where to go.
So what is the difference between the two themes? The most important change is that the colors are hardcoded in Modern Pinball. At the time I started using the theme the first time, I had a blue hue to my desktop instead of the default gray. If I do ever try it again, I'll try to keep it as a separate set of styles. That way the core can be maintained by Johannes.
