Leopard like Safari
This tutorial was brought to you by Galaxy GUI


First Install this theme, it is a very good emulation of safari called Foxdie 1.0.6
http://tanjihay.deviantart.com/art/Foxdie-for-Firefox-1-0-6-60350715

  • For this theme, install it select as theme
  • Restart Firefox then go to themes, right click foxdie>about then choose leopard and leopard, no other options are nesecary unless you choose to use them.


OR
LeoFox by neodesktop
http://neodesktop.deviantart.com/art/Leopard-Glass-3-0-with-LeoFox-63760929

Then Download the following plugins/extensions for firefox:

Stop-or-Reload Button - Combine the stop and reload button *install version 0.2.2
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/313

Fission - Statusbar/loading progress in Address Bar like in Safari
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1951

Autohide Statusbar
http://caspar.regis.free.fr/ahs/
Click Install under the Installation section. A bar will pop up in firefox asking you if you want to allow addons to be installed from this site. click edit options and then allow.

Compact Menu 2 - Customised version of Compact Menu extension for Firefox 2. This replaces the original menubar into a single button or icon.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4550
sometimes after uninstall of this addon your menus disappear completely...

OPTIONAL
TAB EFFECT - Add a cube spinning effect when changing tabs
http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4258

You know have a safari emulation on your firefox that looks almost like the real thing (the windows version cannot be skinned to have mac like minimize close and maximize buttons so thats why safari emulation on firefox is still alive, and safari also still has lots of bugs tongue ) None of the programs above where made by me so I hold no credit for them.
