Perfect Safari for Window Blinds 4.5 - 5.0

This is a Safari mod to blend with the SaFire firefox theme by Bazon. For the windows theme, I’m using Mac OS X Tiger (Brushed Aqua sub-style) by Steve Grenier.

To install the Safari mod:
1) Add skin Safari.zip to WindowBlinds.

2) Under Per Application settings in WindowBlinds, add Firefox.exe

3) Select the “Safari” skin

4) Apply Changes and you’re done!

Comments:
Up till now, there were 2 other themes to go with the SaFire Firefox theme:

Visual Style: Brushed 3.5 Visual Style by Roppongi. This is the VS Bazon recommends and uses in his screenshot. Nice skin but since it’s visual style, minimize, maximize and close buttons are on right side, instead of left as in Mac. Moreover, every window is brushed and can’t assign “per application” style as in WindowBlinds.

WindowBlinds: PixelPerfect 0.2 by aquarius. Another nice skin, but the brushed background is different from Safire’s brushed background, so the titlebar tends to stand out. However, this theme was the closest matching to Safire for WindowBlinds users until now

Note I respect both Roppongi and aquarius as very talented artists. The points made above are nothing personal, just a comparison with what’s currently available which inspired me to make the Safari mod for myself and the community.

Steve Grenier - For the templates, buttons etc I used to create the Safari mod.
Bazon - For the brushed background image I used for the titlebar.
Everything else such as resizing the brushed image, alpha-blending the top-left and top-right corners were done by me.
