ShadGlo Library Toolbar is just a simple shaded black skin for Firefox® 3's 'Organize Bookmarks' Library. This is only really intended for the default Firefox 3 theme. However, it does work with the Classic Compact Theme (tested on 3.0.8) and also many of the optipns in the 'Classic Compact Options' extension (Gradients and Rounded Corners Options must be selected; I've not tested every possible combination). Most other themes provide their own skin for the Library toolbar. Not for Windows Vista OS, in which Firefox uses Library Toolbar styling taken from the OS theme. Tested on Windows XP and Linux.

Extension has been submitted to addons.mozilla.org to facilitate installation and updating in the future; however, at this time it is still in their 'Sandbox' (aka 'Experimental'). Auto-update (and 'Check for updates' from the Addons dialog box) do not work for addons in the sandbox, thus you will need to install a newer version in the same manner as the original. Why? Older versions can be found at the AMO location as well. View it at AMO

Advanced Customizations:

To customize ShadGlo to use your desired toolbar background, place the following line in userChrome.css
toolbar#placesToolbar {background-image: url("bkgrndImg.png) !important;}
where bkgrndImg.png is your desired background (gif or jpg format also work). Place the image file in the same folder as userChrome.css. The image needs to be dark enough for the white text, etc. to be legible.

To use a solid color for the toolbar background rather than an image, instead place the following line in userChrome.css
toolbar#placesToolbar {background-image:none !important; background-color: midnightblue !important;}
Replace midnightblue with your desired color. Again, it needs to be dark enough for the white items to be viewable.
