"It's all about Pinstripe. As much as I like Mozilla, it's ugly without Pinstripe, and looks like a proper OSX app with it."
- A MacNN reader


Pinstripe is a Mozilla theme made to match the look and feel of a native Mac OS X interface. The theme was designed to compliment both the Aqua and graphite OS appearances. If you're using an alternate theme engine such as Duality, Pinstripe will not honor your theme prefs for the toolbars, but may render some of widgets based on your theme.

System Requirements

You must be running Mozilla 1.0 or later on Mac OS X. You must also have Javascript enabled to install Pinstripe. Note: I have no plans to port Pinstripe to Linux or Windows. Here's why.
