Description: Keramikzilla is a theme for Mozilla to make it have the same look as the KDE programs with the Keramik style and the Crystal SVG 1.0 icon set.
Important note: This theme has been made for Mozilla from 1.3 to 1.6. It WON'T work with other versions of Mozilla. Also, it doesn't work with FireFox/Firebird, but the port will come soon, just be patient.
Please report bugs to 'vfernandez at polinux dot upv dot es'.
Thanks to Everaldo for his Crystal SVG icon sets. You can get them at: http://www.everaldo.com
----------------------- HOW TO INSTALL -----------------------
If you already have Keramikzilla installed and want to make an update, just remove the previous version of Keramikzilla and install this new one.
· Extract the files anywhere you want · Open the index.html file in Mozilla (you don't need to be 'root') · Click the "Install" button · Accept when it prompts for the theme installation · Restart Mozilla · 'View' menu - Apply theme - Keramikzilla Crystal SVG · Restart Mozilla again · Enjoy!
Optionally, you can also install the patch for small toolbar icons:
· Select the tab "Icon size" · Click the button "Install patch" · Restart Mozilla
If you want, you may delete the downloaded files once the theme is installed.

I'm delighted with this theme since Keramik is my favorite KDE style. I am wondering if there is a way to get the theme to use the KDE color scheme though??
It's not impossible, but it's hard to implement. Have in mind that many widgets are implemented with images and Mozilla can't colour those images. For example, the scrollbar slider is made with 4 images. The only way to change their colour is to make a program that checks the KDE colour scheme, modifies them and then regenerates the theme. That program should be run before Mozilla starts. I don't discard making such a thing, but first I want to port Keramikzilla to Firefox and make Plastikzilla. Also, some images are animated gifs, which are harder to modify.
Thanks for responding. It sounds like a big job! If you ever decide to do it, that would be great.
In the meantime I look forward to your next zilla themes.

It seems like today there are some problems with the main server's network that prevent people from being able to download from it. So, use the mirror. I hope they'll fix it tomorrow.

And what the Calendar icon?
Ok, I'll try to change it for the next release.
I've changed it now. I've put the kalarm.png icon, but I don't like how it looks. What icon from the Crystal SVG set would you prefer for Calendar?

The problems have been solved and the download is available again.
