About Me
I am a former high school math Teacher, a husband, and a father of two with one more on the way.
I graduated with a degree in Physiological Sciences from the University of Arizona. I followed that up with a masters of Arts in Teaching degree from George Fox University with an endorsement in Advanced Mathematics.
After teaching math to high schoolers for five years, I was recruited to work for the web browser Flock after they saw the work I had done on the side developing themes for Firefox.
My work includes Aero Fox, Aero Fox Silver, Aquatint Redone, Aquatint Black, Abstract Classic, Abstract Zune, Bible Fox and many others.
Unfortunately, due to the recent drop in the U.S. economy, I was laid off from Flock after only five months following major payroll cuts. As I continue to develop themes for Firefox and now Flock, my hope is to be able to turn it into a business developing high quality user interface for browsers and websites. I love doing this sort of thing and appreciate the feedback and support I have received from users.
This site will mainly be for updates as I work on maintaining and improving my themes. I have added a discussion forum to my main site, www.virtusdesigns.com, as well for people who want to post comments, start discussions, and help out with troubleshooting issues.

Installing Files
My recent updates and all themes from this point on will be in xpi format. This allows for automatic installation upon download making it easier to get the themes.
Some of my themes are still jar files. To install a jar file
First save the file to your hard drive. Then, open Firefox/Thunderbird>Tools>Add-Ons. Drag and drop the .jar file in the theme window and click install. Select the theme tab and click on the "use theme" button. Restart Firefox/Thunderbird to use the new theme.

Excellent dark theme!
Do hope to see updates for Bible blue for FX and TB.
Thanks again!
I'd prefer to p.m. this but it seems that the Aero theme doesn't allow me to see if the boxes are ticked or not in the smtp settings.
I found this theme perfect to my taste, BUT there are some popup windows and menus (edit >> preferences) where you used white text over light grey background and is impossible to read.
I tried to fix reading your tutorial but that was too much complicated for my skills.
If you could send me a hint where I have to hack I would appreciate a lot.
Thanks,
José Roberto
I love your Bible themes. Any chance of getting an Auburn Tiger theme set?
Could you tell me how to change the background of the menubar and the navigation toolbar?

In the AeroFox 1.0.5 screen shot what weather addon do you have installed?
These themes are great and match well with my XP RoyaleNoir desktop theme.
Unfortunately, I too have experienced José Roberto's problem of finding white text over a light grey background very difficult to read.
E.g The Firefox Companion Ebay sidebar loses its usefulness when you can't quickly see the status of items you are interested in due to their being difficult to see using these themes.
Aero Thunderbird is a great theme... I'm using it right now! yeahhh
I just would like to ask if it's possible to include on the next update, a more visible "arrow button", next to the icon "Get Mail"...It's a great option for everyone that uses many accounts at the same time, managing to select individually the account from where we want to get new mail...
Thanks for this wonderful work.
