Description
Some of you may know the famous GrApple themes for Firefox Mac by Aronnax.He stopped working on his themes, so no Firefox 4 & up Support - until now!
Under a "almost new" name, I release a Firefox 4 & up compatible version:
CrApple
It brings back all the beauty of GrApple to Firefox: No Favicons, Mac OS X Throbbers, whole Tabbar as new Tab-Button, …
It was a lot of work. Mostly copying stuff from the default theme over. Like Aronnax stated, it would have been easier building it the other way around, copying GrApple Elements into a new theme with the default one as base, but this is the way I started this mod and therefor the theme-folder is a big mess
If you encounter any errors or bugs, I will try to fix them, but please understand that I don't have the time to maintenance this on a regular basis. I'm Pretty sure, there will be addons breaking the theme in some kind of way.This mod was made upon personal preferences, so it's not a 100% port, but 97%
BIG THX to Aronnax for making GrApple and for giving me the permission to release this!
Also heads up for the community over at mozillazine.org .
If you want to discuss, head over to the GrApple thread at mozillazine.
I highly recommend the Status-4-Evar addon, bringing the old statusbar back to Firefox 4 & up. Check it out!
Here is a bigger preview: [link]
Also available via the mozilla Addon gallery: [link]
Additional Infos:
To get combined stop/reload button into the urlbar, you have to arrange the two buttons like this: first reload button, than stop button
I'm sick changing version numbers each FF release.
So, the version posted here on dA will have a max version number of 666 (pretty evil, hrhr) - this should last for a while
v1.2.0b

- corrected position of favicons in da urlbar
- new light Popups e.g. when clicking on the globe in the urlbar to see site-infos
BETA ISSUES::::
-> webdeveloper stuff needs refinement
-> New Downlodas Button and Popupwindow needs work
-> Social Toolbar Buttons looking weird
-> Titlebar of private browsing window looks weird

still using my beta version with FF34 - newer versions sadly destroy a lot. Still planing for get it done somehow.
Here is my current version, if you want to use it with FF34:

Unzip it and place the extracted folder inside your extensions folder.
cheers

Hi there,
unfortunately, it doesn't work in my system. I tried versions 33 up to 36. The screeshot says it all. ;(

Good news, great! Thanks in advance!

That is exciting!!! Are you going to restore the original back-forward and reload buttons, too? Will it be retina-ized?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Buttons will be restored. Workin on it. No retina support, sorry.

Looking forward to it! I'm particularly looking forward to a theme that restores the Firefox Titlebar to a reasonable reduced height and with the buttons on the titlebar in the proper place at the top (as in the old grapple/crapple themes). I've been struggling along with Classic Theme Restorer, but it never really looks like a good, integrated design.

Dear Dominic, I'd like to thank you (and Aronnax) for creating and supporting the Crapple theme for so long. It was great whilst it lasted but I guess all good things come to an end.
FWIW I have now come up with a workaround which at least works and looks fairly Safariesque. Forgive the long post but the directions are as follows:
You will need:
Firefox 29 and up,
and the following Plug-ins:
Classic Theme Restorer
Status-4-Evar
Stylish
Classic Theme Restorer Prefs:
Squared tabs
Tabs not on top
Firefox titlebar (unchecked)
Small buttons (checked, then amend when customising menu)
Movable back-forward button (checked)
Green/blue identity box (checked)
Hide tabs toolbar with one tab (checked)
Hide add-on bar's close button (checked)
Status-4-Evar Prefs:
Show progress in status bar (checked)
Linestyle: Full
Custom style: White with blue loadingbar.png* (save file in ~library/application support/mozilla)
Always show download status button (checked, then copy icon on to add-on bar)
Enable legacy status bar support (unchecked)
*You can download the loadingbar.png from here: postimg.org/image/wys16oxhb
Stylish:
Create the following scripts
Hide Favicons on Bookmark Bar
#personal-bookmarks .toolbarbutton-icon { display: none !important; }
Hide Favicons on Tabs
.tabbrowser-tabs .tab-icon-image { display: none !important; }
Hide Tab Throbber
.tab-throbber { display: none !important }
Customise toolbar:
Make small icons normal again
Drag 'status text' and 'download status' button to add-on bar and hide the old status bar
Drag the new tab button to the far right of the tab bar
I hope this is of some help to others.
Steve.

Actually (in contrast to what muelman says) I'd say this is the perfect time to update Crapple! For a while, Grapple/Crapple and the default FX theme with small icons were pretty similar--I think that's part of the reason Arronax abandoned the theme. Now, Australis has replaced a sensible design with small, hard-to-press buttons that nevertheless go along with bulky toolbars that take up unnecessary vertical space. So, Crapple would be the perfect theme to make Firefox usable again--not to mention the ability to have tabs on the bottom. How about it???

I don't have the time to maintain the theme atm. But it's not dead!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Fair enough...but as for it "not being dead", I tried it on FX 29+ and it definitely didn't work. Have you tried it successfully on an FX version with Australis?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I tried too. I looks creepy, but doable
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Oh well, guess it's finally good bye to a great theme now. Fortunately, in my view; Australis is indeed a great improvement for Firefox @ OS X.
I for one have gone themeless, with a combination of status-4-evar, classic theme restorer and a handfull of things extracted from CrApple insertet into userChrome.css.
Time to stop internally complaining about all the things that Yummy broke and nostaligacally remember it as the one thing that has kept me from switching to chrome *shudder* all the time since Fx 3.5.
Thank you Aronnax for creating, and Dominic for maintaing all the time

Stylish causes malfunction by a combination of Firefox27 and CrApple.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
then don't use it
CrApple runs fine here without stylish.
Screenshot with the problem?

Any chance of an update for FF 26.0, the downloads button has some graphics bugs, amongst other things...thanks again for this superb theme
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know of that. I downgraded to 25.0.1 atm, because I want my old-school downloads window. Mozilla is going to make me scream more and more. Don't know what they're thinking :/
I already have a huge list of CrApple ToDos, but absolutely no time to deal with them. Sometime in January maybe.
Until then, the only advise I can give you: remove the dl-button from the toolbar and hit cmd+j to view your downloads.

thanks larzon83, fingers crossed you find that time in January...why does Dec always end up feeling so crazy busy?!

is there aaaaaaany chance for retina support at some point? That'd be f*cking amazing

Can anyone tell me if this will work with the retina Macbook pro 15 running Mountain Lion 10.8.3?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't have a retina mbp, so I don't know. Just test it and you'll know if it works
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
oh, just saw this now. it works but it's pretty pixely. let's all chip in and buy larzon a retina macbook!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Overall its usable. But some things are tricky. I will post a new beta version tonight, probably

Hey man, a big thank you for always keeping CrApple up-to-date. Like many, I always wait for your theme to update my Firefox

Well we couldn't go too long without another problem right?
There are toolbar problems with FF 20.0 and latest CrApple
When you preview (customize) the toolbar it looks ok, but then there's problems with the download, favorites and history buttons
Hope you can address soon! CrApple is King
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah specifically the toolbar is screwed up when the download button (which now seems to have new 'progress' functionality in 20.0) is present in the toolbar.
Remove it and CrApple seems ok otherwise...any chance of a fix?

Hi, could you please update with new version of status-4-evar and firefox 19? Thanks in advance!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know about that but it is a bit tricky and I don't have the time atm.
I advise you to use the old version of status-4-evar until then.

Please, please, please, release this on Google Chrome! I'm begging you!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
C'mon. This looks so awesome!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, but it's not possible. sry

Many, many thanks for this - the FF native Apple theme is horrible. Good call with the version number - every new FF release has me in UI-ugliness-misery 'til I can find an update or patch CrApple, and it does get tedious!
