I think the problem is mismatch of preview image.
Attached image example image
Current virsion of "Preview.png"(Rev1.3) size is 375x40.
Preview images should be 355x85 or the images would be terribly resized.
This is an example of 355x85 default Qute image.
Reassigning to Arvid.
Assignee: blaker → arvid
The existing image (preview.gif) should be replaced instead of updating code to
use the new png as it is significantly larger for no reason.

Additionally, this bug should be re-assigned to someone who can replace the
image as I don't believe Arvid has cvs rights, unless this has changed.

Also recommend making this bug a blocker for 0.6 since this is the first
milestone with this theme and it will be confusing otherwise.
Attached image Alternate preview gif (obsolete) —
Attaching an alternate preview image that doesn't use the WinXp Luna theme to
potentially confuse things.
Also, "\skin\classic\global\Preview.png" should be deleted to reduce space. This
should go in bug 189043 but perhaps it will be done at the same time.
Chris, referring to:

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=121388&action=view

Might be an idea to update the bookmarks from "Phoenix Help" and "Phoenix
Discussions" to "Firebird Help" & "Firebird Discussions".
Attached image another option (obsolete) —
This one uses big icons, which are more attractive. It also has a white
background, which resembles Luna but it's really Classic. I also used cnn.com
instead of mozilla.org in the location bar because I'm sure most who download
Firebird care more about browsing then testing. It's also free advertising to
CNN>AOLTimeWarner which is a major sponsor of mozilla.org
Point taken about the old bookmarks. Here is another graphic with renamed
bookmarks and large icons.

Alternate websites and colors may look nice to some, but the theme preview
should present as "default" a view as possible.
Maybe it should be with the luna theme because qute is based on Luna(the new
window/the back/forward, the history icon...)

The graphics may be based on a WinXP theme but that does not justify presenting
a specific (and very distinctive) OS theme in the theme preview that increases
the potential for confusion about what the theme will actually look like with
other OS themes, IMHO.
I suggest that http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=121487&action=view
replace the following files:

/mozilla/themes/classic/global/mac/preview.gif
/mozilla/themes/classic/global/win/preview.gif

It also seems that /mozilla/toolkit/skin/win/Preview.png is not needed and
should be removed.

Also, it would be nice to get this one into 0.6 as the preview image is
misleading right now, and IMO, that is inappropriate for a milestone.
No longer depends on: 189043
Here is a working patch/solution:

replace these files with
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=121487&action=view
  mozilla/themes/classic/global/mac/preview.gif
  mozilla/themes/classic/global/win/preview.gif

apply Patch allowing removal of unused mozilla/toolkit/skin/win/Preview.png (
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=123314&action=view )

delete mozilla/toolkit/skin/win/Preview.png

After following the above steps, I built and tested Firebird on Windows and
Linux.  The above method solved the problem perfectly on both platforms.

*** Asa, I think we should get this into 0.6 as it could be confusing to new
users.  It shouldn't be too hard, as the patch is minor and would take no more
than a few min to review and checkin.  Can you set this to 0.6 so it doesn't get
missed. ***

Patch allowing removal of unused /toolkit/skin/win/Preview.png

Requesting review of patch (and preview.gif) replacement from bryner.  Please
see Comment #19 for description/instructions.
Attachment #123314 - Flags: review?(bryner)
No, we shouldn't replace the preview.gif files in mozilla/themes/classic; those
should still be a preview of the seamonkey classic skin.

I checked in a fix for this using the luna image of qute.  It's a matter of
personal opinion, but I think this is the best looking of the screenshots.

This Qute image is a bit out of date (Qute uses different stop button now).
I rescreenshoted using both Luna and Classic windows theme.
This is just an example (size is too big, so the required part can be simply
cut from this image if needed)
Same thing, just with Luna theme.

how about this?

Not bad, except quality :)

I would personally prefer to have text labels, but developers will make final
decision.
I checked in attachment 123708 [details] cropped to the size we had before (355x85).
i notice we took out the "classic" theme preview, but in addition to taking out
the image, should all reference to the mozilla theme not be removed?  it can't
be selected as your theme, so it's just going to confuse anyone who might want
that theme.  can't think who would, though!  please advise if this should be a
seperate bug.
I think you are talking about bug 191992 :)
