Add skins for ABP

Post by guest »

Since some people want the roach while others like the new one and still some don't like any, why don't you just add a skin option so they can choose or create and submit it?
Only one thing about this idea is it will increase the size of ABP :(

But that is complicating and you have to install another extension :( Can't you make a skin extension like FoxyTunes? to make it easier to understand

No you don't - stylish just manipulates configuration files, nothing you could
not do by hand too.

I agree this is not very user friendly, but after all, you need only to do it once.

I actually am very glad that ABP does not go down the path of bloat by not adding
all those popular bells and whistles like skins.

I don't think I need to make customization more accessible than it already is. That isn't something related to the main purpose of the extension, consequently the answer is http://adblockplus.org/en/faq_project#options

I didn't mean that you have to sign up - just use the same name consistently even if you post as a guest.
