Hi, isn't there a possibilty to reuse all oxygen icons? IMHO the
combined back/forward button looks wired.

Another question is if the theming can be done by some kind of
gtk-qt-engine. The wrong background color of tabs is an example

Can you report these problems in upstream?

Hello,
icons look exactly like OSX and Vista ones. I considered this
important because I still wanna feel I'm using Firefox 3, not 2. These
buttons are a design improvement in the new version of the navigator.
The big back button has the purpose of improving usability so that's
the reason I used it.

So what I am doing by now is taking Firefox 3 design and putting KDE4
colors. I planned to use this button but to change the color (KDE4
back buttons are darker) and design (KDE4 shades are not so rounded)
some little to fit KDE4. I won't have much time until Tuesday to do
this and many things that must be changed in tabs, status bar, menus,
address and search fields, some icons, etc. All these changes will
make the theme look more KDE4 because of work is 5% done.

Sure, but as I know new version of gtk-qt-engine is still not
completed so David Sansome should have already knowledge of it.

There is already a Firefox/Iceweasel Oxyen theme in KDE SVN .
Take a look at http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/artwork/Oxygen/firefox/
