WIP, Firefox Strata 3.7 / 4.0 for Mac OS X

After using Strata40 and Strata Buddy on my Windows computers, I really wanted to have a somewhat similar theme for Mac OS X on my MacBook Pro. Well, I looked and did not find one, so instead of waiting, I decided to start a Strata 3.7 / 4.0 theme for the Mac version of Firefox. It’s not finished, but it’s actually coming along nicely. I am making it for Firefox 3.6, so I will probably not release it until Firefox 3.6 is released. I still have the URL bar, the location and tab progress bars (which will require extra extensions) and a few more parts on the tab bar to finish. I’ll also be releasing it’s source (the Photoshop PSDs) here when I’m done if I can find a license similar to LGPL license for PSD documents.

For your viewing pleasure, here is the current state of the theme.
