More progress has been made. Sure would be nice if we could edit our own posts...

I now have control over most of the CKE elements users would want to change via CSS.
It was a little challenging as vB5.2.x has added new CLASS ID's and I didn't want separate codes for ever version.
The code below has been tested upon vB5.1.2, 5.1.9, 5.2.2 and 5.2.4
The results differ slightly, but it all works as expected.

Works on 5.2.4 . Tested

[Felix2]

Another small addition. Hover over effect.
Should work on all vB5.1.x-5.2.x

/* Hover */
a.cke_button_off:hover, a.cke_button_off:focus, a.cke_button_off:active, a.cke_button_disabled:hover, a.cke_button_disabled:focus, a.cke_button_disabled:active {
    background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top,#984ef4,#2f123b) !important;
}

Because it was 4am and I forgot to remove portion of the testing code I was using on various browsers :P
And because I can't edit my own posts

But you are correct, that does not have to be FF only. It was just for testing.

This is the present code, tested on vB5.1.x-5.2.4-

Been playing about with this one to suit my needs until moono-dark is avaiable hopefully on the next release of vb5.4.2 .
The top bit of the code that changes the background color to dark grey or black is not needed in this version of 5.4.2 alpha as it can now be changed with the new global pallette stylevars none the less i used parts of this code that i needed the result can be seen below.
