GNOME-Fx 0.10.0

GNOME-Fx 0.10.0

GNOME-Fx is a theme for Mozilla Firefox which tries to make Firefox look like a native GNOME application. GNOME-Fx is intented to blend in well with the default GNOME theme. GNOME-Fx (blue) is a slight variation which uses the blue instead of the green GTK theme.

Changes

This is the initial release of GNOME-Fx. If you have any improvements (better icons/ new icons etc) or comments please send them to the gnomefx mailinglist. See http://www.mozdev.org/mailman/listinfo/gnomefx

GNOME-Fx versioning follows the versioning scheme of Firefox. So the first two numbers of the GNOME-Fx version indicate for which version of Firefox the theme is.
