Google Chrome Themes for Firefox

Posted: September 15, 2008 | Filed Under Themes

Want to dress Firefox up to look like Google Chrome? 

It is ok to look at other browser’s themes from time to time.  That doesn’t mean your a cheater, it just means you like looking at new things every once in a while.  Chromiefox is a coat of “chrome” for Firefox.  Available for Windows, Linux and Mac OSX, this theme will bring you the look and feel of Chrome without having to switch browsers to get your fix.

chrome-vista

Here are the other flavors of Chromiefox to check out, based on the OS you use:

Chromiefox for Windows Chromiefox for Linux Chromiefox for OSX

As a word of warning, the author of the theme does say there are some compatibility issues with some third party add-ons.  So that maybe something to keep in mind.

  • Interesting, FF users want Chrome look, and Chrome users want FF look. I think Chrome will win out in the end. Already grabbing points from IE and FF users.

    Chrome Package 0.2.1 is the best theme if you are going for the complete chrome look for firefox. it includes an extension that puts the tabs on top without have stylish installed. the minimize, resize, and close buttons on top look exactly like chrome. I would highly recommend this theme

    I like it a lot. I wish they would have done more of a mashup between the two though. I miss not having the back and forward mixed together. Maybe for version two?
