Since I have not been able to upload a new theme using the MozUpdpate site, I am
using this older method.

Theme name: SphereGnome Super-Jumbo

Author: Ed Hume

GUID: {ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}

Version 1.0.1

Description: SphereGnome SuperJumbo is designed for screens with very high
resolutions (3820x2400, for example) where visibility is a major issue. The
button icons are sized at 64x64 and 96x96, with browser icons at 48x48. Try this
theme with a system font size set at 200% or higher.

File (all OS's except Mac OSX):

Reproducible: Always




Although this may seem like overkill, I once had a comment from a user of
SphereGnome Jumbo who used a 3820x2400 screen resolution. It may be a little
early for this, but it's better to be early than late.

My monitor isn't big enough!

But how about you use the Developer Control Panel to upload this?

I tried uploading a new file. In fact, I've tried using newly-compiled jarfiles,
Fx 1.0.3, Fx 1.0+ (more than one build) and two different profiles. I've cleared
my cache. All I get is an error message. Check out this screenshot:

If I could have used MozUpdate, I would have. I've even shortened the filename
with no better results.

The geocities links on the bug are broken.  Can you attach one of the jar files
here so I can try it out?  Do any of your other themes work for you?

Comment 4

[Ed Hume]

I rezipped the files to these new names:

http://www.geocities.com/edhume/themes/spheregnomesuperj-1.0.1-fx.jar
http://www.geocities.com/edhume/themes/spheregnomesuperj-1.0.1-fx-macosx.jar

I have been able to upload all of my other theme jarfiles through MozUpdate. It
has been easy, actually. The only problem I encountered--from the first or
second day you had Developer Access enabled--was with creating a new theme entry
on the site. I never was able to upload a file under "Add New Theme".

Ok, I have a feeling that it might be because this file is so large.  We're
researching. 

Comment 6

[Ed Hume]

Ouch! Now I have exceeded the bandwidth limits on my Geocities page.

I have uploaded all of the files to http://www.pshrink.com/firebird/

Specifically:

http://www.pshrink.com/firebird/spheregnomesuperjumbo-1.0.1-fx.jar
http://www.pshrink.com/firebird/spheregnomesuperjumbo-1.0.1-fx-macosx.jar

and 

http://www.pshrink.com/firebird/spheregnomesuperj-1.0.1-fx.jar
http://www.pshrink.com/firebird/spheregnomesuperj-1.0.1-fx-macosx.jar

They are identical in everything but filename.

Is this different from https://addons.mozilla.org/themes/moreinfo.php?id=779&application=firefox ?

The error screenshot link is no longer valid. Without any sort of error, I can't really do anything to fix this bug. If this bug is an issue still, or even if it's not, please comment. Otherwise, I'll resolve in a few days.

Please close this. It has not been a problem in a long time.
