In a little more detail...
I started Firefox theming in 2005 as a way to put something back into the "Open Source Community".
That was glowyred and I got a lot of requests to do it in blue, green, pink, purple etc.
In doing glowyblue and glowygreen I learnt a lot of things that meant I had to deprecate glowyred in favour of a new theme that became glowywine.
Since then I have created glowygold, Arctic Glow and flaminglow.
I've made each of these fairly monotonous for a number of reasons.
I set a goal to have all my themes on Firefox 4 by March 2011 which I have achieved.
I also promised to resume support for Thunderbird and as at 2nd of March 2011 have submitted each for AMO approval.
It has been quite a work load to achieve this but a challenge I have enjoyed.
I hope many of you get similar satisfaction from the results.
At this stage I am cross testing with Firefox and Thunderbird Extensions for issues such as readability.

This is the most successfull download manager in my experience over 4 years across more than 4 platforms for most web use

Reminderfox has a lot of functionality while being progressive from simple to complex ui.
I rate it 10 star.

Having used this going back to the default layout is like wading waist deep through treacle. I've changed the version support number several platforms for Firefox 4 with no problem. I'm sure your flat out on NNL but I hope you keep supporting this.

I would like to see more icons in red but I can understand that there may be good reasons why you have not done that.
What I would like to see is your style with a glass red background theme.
Two Dimensions: Green
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Like all of your themes this has great precision and symmetry leading to high aesthetic appeal.
I must say that this is my favourite of the 2D themes.

I first used DTA a few years ago when when searching for a resumable download manager for Firefox.
Since then I have been surprised at the number of uses and functionality it has provided me.
FlashGot Mass Downloader
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
In my honest opinion, fireperson's comment is innapropriate and should be removed - personal requirement should have no bearing.
While I don't have a great need for Flashgot All, it does what it claims very well for those who do need it.
I've found Flashgot to integrate across quite a number of platforms using the native downloader such as wget and cURL.
It's Options provide a lot of functionality in a clean and direct manner.
Five points and well done.

Infinity

Great texture shading.
Good attention to detail for visibility - especially considering most text is blue - I know how tricky that can be.

KurtMorton.com Theme (a.k.a Firefox Blue)
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Nice but I'd prefer to see more blue in menus and dialogs.
