Firefox has gained a lot of notice this year; therefore, it is rapidly gaining share on Microsoft's Internet Explorer. It's not only security that fuels Firefox's gain, but also the ability to customize the browser to your liking and extensions that streamline your browser experience. This article looks at Themes, Extensions, active bookmarks, and changing the browser's interface with Cascading Style Sheets.</p> <p align="left"><strong>First Look:</strong></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/firefox/basic.gif"><img src="atruereview/firefox/basicth.gif" alt="Customizing Mozilla Firefox" border="0" width="350" height="259"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="left">At first look, the browser looks fun. The buttons have more life to them than IE. There is even a search bar present for Google and other search engines. For some people this setup is good, for others it does not fit their needs.</p> <p align="left"><strong>Themes:</strong></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/firefox/theme.gif"><img src="atruereview/firefox/themeth.gif" alt="Customizing Mozilla Firefox" border="0" width="350" height="266"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="left">For those that have not used Firefox, it uses themes like Winamp and Media player. Clicking on the <strong>Tool </strong>menu and selecting <strong>Themes</strong>, opens the theme manager. At first you only have one theme. Clicking the <strong>Get More Themes</strong> link at the bottom right loads Firefox's web page and brings up their additional themes.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/firefox/downloadtheme.gif"><img src="atruereview/firefox/downloadthemeth.gif" alt="Customizing Mozilla Firefox" border="0" width="350" height="259"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="left">Click the <strong>Install Now</strong> link and you can watch it install in the theme manager. In the theme manager, you are able to switch to it with the <strong>Use Theme</strong> button. Notice the update button. This is a very handy feature to keep your themes current. Themes are updated to enable support the new updates of Firefox or to fix bugs.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/firefox/installtheme.gif"><img src="atruereview/firefox/installthemeth.gif" alt="Customizing Mozilla Firefox" border="0" width="350" height="266"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="left">I picked <strong>pheonity</strong> as my new theme. As you can see this is a vast improvement over the looks of IE, as long as you are into customizing the looks of your system.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/firefox/newtheme.gif"><img src="atruereview/firefox/newthemeth.gif" alt="Customizing Mozilla Firefox" border="0" width="350" height="259"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="right"><a href="atruereview/firefox/firefox_extensions.php"></a> <a href="firefox/firefox_extensions.php">Next (Extensions & Live Bookmarks)</a></p> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div id="footer" class="clr"> <div class="rk-1"> <div class="rk-2"> <div id="the-footer">  </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html>
