I'm a Mac fan (we have 3) and I've noticed that my Firefox 3 browser was unstable (or at least that's what I thought was the problem) but because of the entrecard toolbar, I continued to use Firefox instead of safari and just put up with Firefox crashing and other weird unpredictable issues cropping up daily.
Yesterday while playing with Firefox, I decided to try a different theme and guess what, not a single issue since switching to the Walnut theme, it's flawless. The theme took some time to get used to the looks but that's easy when everything else works so smoothly - oh I love this theme and thankful that the crashing and hang-ups have ceased.
What browser do you use and what's your theme?

My Issues Were With the Firefox Theme

I use Firefox as my main browser and use the Walnut theme as well.I have not had the probles of crashing as I did with the windows explorer.
i am a Firefox fanatic and I am using the Walnut theme since day one and no plan of changing it anytime at all. I love the theme color.
We use FireFox too, because my techie wife says it is safer when using the Internets. It is that much more protection against viruses and stuff.
As for theme, I have no idea. Ours is blue at the top, so maybe you know what it might be.
Have a good day!
I use Firefox3 but have no clue about my theme. I do have problems sometimes though with getting hung up.
I just read Paul's comment and mine is blue too. so I just have the standard theme I guess. I'll try a change too and see if things improve!
Hummmm...I'll have to check this out. Thanks Deb!:-)
Mine is grey, I am using Firefox since it is "out" and it is definitely the best browser. I also tried Opera (not bad), Google Chrome (so so) and many, many years ago Internet Explorer from Microsoft (I am happy that there are alternatives to this).
I have not encountered much problems with Firefox. Perhaps, a little hang up every two or three month.
I am not using Mac.
I use Firefox and I didn't even know I could change the darn theme.
I am using Firefox and IE at the same time. Using Firefox mainly for Entrecard and dropping purposes because it is friendlier to use than IE. But I am using IE for most of my other purposes like checking email, browsing the net etc.
Mine crashes all the time. I tried your theme last night and it crashed anyway. I'm not on a mac though so perhaps that was the reason?
Have a terrific day. :)
Mine is just the basic grey firefox default skin and mine crashes
ALL...THE...TIME....
And I hate firefox its the most unstable browser ever :( And the popup blocker is crappy on it. :( At least with IE I can set it to HIGHEST mode and No more pop ups unless I hit shift to override it.
So I am like "Symphony of Love" ... I use Firefox JUST FOR doing drops and Internet Explorer for browsing the internet.

I am a Window user and have been a Firefox person for a long time now. Did not know I could change the theme. so, I went on the site and changed it to the Walnut. I must say it got good reviews. I do like it. I have put it a all my computers. so much easier on the eyes.
I use FireFox because I just about had fits with Internet Explorer constantly shutting down or freezing up.
I have had several different themes with FireFox and so far no worries.
I will however say that my Windows Vista and FireFox are in constant battle for some strange reason.
I guess it is like anything else...some are lemons and some are not.
Thank you for sharing...it helps to not feel all alone in the battle of the computer frenzy!

Yayyyyyy......I'm here today visiting with you all day on your side bar!!
Thank you for letting me stay:-)
I changed to the Walnut Theme after reading about it here a few days ago. So far, Firefox has not crashed since the theme change.
Google Chrome works very fast once you learn how to maximize the bookmarks features.
I used to have a theme, but it made Firefox to slow. I put the Walnut theme on my mom's Thunderbird (Firefox's email client) and really like it, but I've been wary to put it on my browser, given the experiences that I was having with the other theme. Good to know it seems to be bug-free.
One can also try Nautipolis, LittleFox, MicroFox, W3V8 and Walnut2.
They are all from the same author and based on the same codebase.
LittleFox and MicroFox are very small and light themes (making FF faster!). And Walnut2 is a variation on Walnut with better looking wood.
Well, I have not visited you in AGES and here is the answer to the question I've been agonizing over for a friggin month! IE or Firefox. I guess I know what I'm doing now :) Walnut theme!
I hope you're doing good and now that I'm getting Google Reader organized, I'll see you again soon.
