Thanks for the explanation – and when the fixes are made to the system, will we have to re-submit our themes for them to be processed correctly this time? Or is what we originally submitted held in memory somewhere and not irreversibly cropped?
If you want the theme to look differently than how it currently looks, you’ll need to upload a new version with the changes. The new system will enable themes to be more flexible, but it won’t change the way the existing ones look.

Thanks for the info. So basically I just need to keep my original image saved somewhere and just wait until the new format comes out and then re-upload it then. But how will I know when the new format’s in place? Will there be trumpets?
So I guess you’re showing me (not telling me) to just re-submit the design as a top-half-only image and just leave the bottom half empty, with just the desired background color?
If so, thanks – I had thought that might be a possibility, but then I wondered if there isn’t some more intelligent handling going on that detects and disregards empty fields. I guess you’re implying that there is not, however.
Again, thanks.
Hi @Ronnigon! As far as I know, there is not an auto-detect and disregard feature for empty fields. Your theme looks great (although in the future, you might want to align your main image to the left; we’ve found that right-aligned images sometimes conflict with buttons on the right side of the browser) and I’m thrilled that a couple of users have installed it. 
Greetings,
I’ve been giving 57 Nightly a trail run on HTC m9, Android 7.0, and found alternatives to add-ons that will not be making the transition. However, theme’s are washed out as though there is an obscure filter over them. Worst, is solid black turns grey, abstract images are faded, blue seems to be one of the better colors though. But, 57 is definitely faster than 55 currently with very similar add-ons. Namely Ublock origin,
smart https, and cookie autodelete. And theme: tranquil blue.

Please can the above theme be fixed the stretch takes out the main parts of the writing in the theme, thanks!
I’ve approved the edit that was made to it. So check it when you get the chance.
You have indeed, most appreciated.
Please can you approve again i’ve amended the colour of the text this time.
Kindest regards.
I don’t believe that text color changes need to go through the review process again. At least I’m not seeing the design again. If you changed the text to red, it’s already adjusted.
Ah yes, apologies I thought those changes would also require approval, I have made another small edit to and re uploaded, please approve and apologies for the inconvenience.
That’s not a problem. I do believe that some years ago any edit at all would require approval. It’s since changed but I wasn’t 100% sure.
So yeah, your edit has been approved!
Ah I see, wonderful - I think i’ve cracked the scaling with this last edit
Thanks for your help, and enjoy the rest of your weekend!
You’re welcome. You have a nice weekend as well.
High everyone !
I have a problem with 95 % of themes.
I don’t know to make themes add-on so I don’t know if it comes from the monitor’s resolution or from the monitor’s ratio, mine is a 21:9 display with 3440x1440 pixels.
Maybe the probleme come from Mozilla code or maybe from makers.
So mozilla should correct the code for making theme working with special ratio screens as my 21:9, and maybe for 4k screens (I dont have one to tell you if those have the same probleme).
If not Mozilla should communicate to makers to think about those big resolutions or special ratio screens.
here you can see the problem on top left corner, the theme stop before the left window border:
Thank’s !!
