Opera GX Mod
-
@alifidan Looks proper to me…

Just tried this out recently and looks pretty good. There are a few glitches but it's quite nice. Since our Vivaldi settings can be different for most of us (ex. the tab bar location and the side bar location), you may have a slightly different experience - some glitches are a bigger problem with some settings.
The best part, by far, is the address bar. The minimalism there is perfect.
The tabs are nice, but not perfect. The outlines could stand out a bit more and on horizontal scrolling tabs, there is a bunch of space after the last tab.
The sidebar is interesting. I really like the larger icons, which makes them easier to see and looks cleaner, but sadly it means I need to scroll to get to my web panels. Also, for some reason I can't open any web panels until I click some of the buttons above them. This part could use the most work in my opinion, the most annoying glitches are here. (at least for me - I have the sidebar on the right)
Finally, the toolbar at the bottom has a nice gradient border. Again, the border could be thicker for a bolder look.
Overall, this is a very nice mod. Some parts of it could use work, but I can confidently say that this could be the inspiration for future design changes in Vivaldi. (On second thought, maybe not, as Opera has already done this)

Hey, where do we get the background? That way we have the logo instead of a hole in the browser

Has anybody updated the Opera GX skin for Vivaldi yet? The browser's amazing, but not quite as beautiful as GX, so when i found the mod, it was the best of both worlds. The problem's the mod's not working well after the 5.0 update... Well, since i'm a rock at programming and can't do anything tweaking-wise on my own, i was hoping a kind soul in a similar condition to mine (Minus the programming inability) has updated it. If not, can anyone do it?

@Cachucamaru Hello and Welcome to the Vivaldi Community
Opera GX skin
Which "Opera GX" mod would that be? Might be an idea to post in the original topic you found it, in case the author is still around?
If not, I doubt anyone in a sane state of mind would take on the task of fixing a several years old broken CSS mod someone else wrote, unless they also really really care about Opera GX (I'm not one of those)
Doing a forum search (something you should've done) I found:
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/39894/opera-gx-theme
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/39965/opera-gx-mod
Which one is it? -
@Pathduck Thanks for the tips! Well, it was that mod one. Snooping around on Github, i (Miraculously) found another version of it, which is more modern and has only two problems: The cool vertical neon bar does not reach the sidebar, and there is a strange hollow square that leaks into the browser wallpaper for some reason. (Pic related)
This is the link of the Custom Version:
https://github.com/catalin-tc/vivaldi-gx-customSince it's from mid(I think) 2022, i guess it would be lots easier to fix that. Sadly i'm still a rock at programming. If you or someone else would take a look at that, i'd be very thankful!

@Cachucamaru Well, if it's on Github, you can just create a support issue
-
@Pathduck Oh, alright hahah
Anyway, thanks for everything! -
I don't seem to have the red line next to the sidebar?
NOTE: I'm using Linux if that might affect this

I may not have even downloaded Opera GX until near the end of this rewrite's development, but your assessment of my mental wellbeing seems to be accurate. Yet another overly complex mod that I myself won't actually use
