Why does Firefox always look like crap?
Why does Firefox always look like crap?
I'm using both Kubuntu and SUSE with KDE 3.4 and the fonts for my shortcuts, and menus look like crap. They are huge and and take up too much of my small 12 in. screen. I like KDE too much to switch too Gnome, and Firefox too much to switch to Opera. I'm a newbie so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
RE: Why does Firefox always look like crap?
There's some good KDE themes for Firefox
here. I'm not sure they'll help with the fonts, but they could help with the menus.
Have you tried fiddling with the Firefox fonts through the preferences?

There is an entry about this on the official KDE FAQ
http://docs.kde.org/development/en/kdeba….html#id2562188
This KControl module that's provided by the gtk-qt engine package is a very nice way of setting your gtk (including firefox) fonts from within KDE. It also lets you select to try to make Gnome apps mimic your KDE theme, or to select another Gnome theme to use for Gnome applications.
