[Thunar-dev] Thunar rather than later... it's a website!

[Yo'av Moshe]

Very nice looking, but 2 things -

1. I'm having the same problem as Anders.
2. It feels like the sidebar is too wide. Seems like 25%, which is way
too much in my opinion.

Other than that - I think it's very nice, if everyone will agree on
that I'l fix the old phpBB2 theme.

Yo'av.
