Does not work with the addon 'Classic Theme Restorer' Rated 5 out of 5 stars

by Oliver on June 3, 2015 · permalink · translate

Don't do what 'sparklark' did 9 reviews below - it undoes all your UI customisations.

Irritatingly I followed it and then spent ages finding out how to change everything back.

Also this addon appears to do weird things to the UI, like make the tab line and tab dropline list on the far right of the tab bar wider and taller per tab.

All I wanted to do was colour one or two tabs manually; I don't see why I need to use the horrible default Firefox theme in order for this addon to work. Simply colouring tabs should be very easy and simple to code and remain compatibility with custom themes like 'Classic Theme Restorer'.

As such I cannot use this addon.

I have been using this addon for a very long time, and I just had to make a review for this addon.

There isn't much to say. It does what it says without any problems. I totally recommand it.

Colorful categories and minifying tabs. Rated 4 out of 5 stars

by lawrencesmiller on May 26, 2015 · permalink · translate

I like ColorfulTabs. It were good, however, if we could pick colors based on categories, as well as, by domain name.

What is the purpose of option "Minify Tabs"?

Old Color Picker was better Rated 4 out of 5 stars

by webguy_CO on April 11, 2015 · permalink · translate

The color picker in version 26.3 and older allowed me to see the changes as I was making to them. Loved being able to easily fine tune colors.

The new color reminds me of being blind-folded and trying to hit a pinata.

Guess a hex code and hope that it hits the color shade wanted. I removed the new version and went back to 26.3 and set the Automatic Updates to "off"

Awesome Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Taking the opportunity, I would like to know if there is a way to set a default color to the Tabs. In Options, I configured "General / Generate Colors By Domain Hostname" and "Presets / Enable Preset Domain Colors", with a certain value to 'about:blank'. But when opening a new Tab, it always start with black, and not with the color I choosed. Thanks!

Overwritten tab icons Rated 2 out of 5 stars

After the latest install page icons on tabs are overwritten with hex codes or just white lines. The tabs also become transparent at times

Best add-on Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Makes it so much easier to identify tabs at a glance. Be sure to use the domain pre-sets for regularly visited sites.

One suggestion: Can you add an option to automatically change the text to white for dark backgrounds and black for light backgrounds?

Colorful Kindness Rated 5 out of 5 stars

by RockabillyComet on March 16, 2015 · permalink · translate

Good Day! I hope ALL are having an Amazing one, and I hope so too that in the majority of your passing moments you're finding Joy, through the passing of a wonderful splash, or tiny dab of Color.

I'm a Very Big Fan of Color. I believe Color is Kindness. For Me, even when typed, written, drawn, or painted, even in black and white, the word "Kindness" still emits itself in Color. In MY World, Happiness is Color just the Same. If Kindness were to have a child, Happiness would be it's Offspring.

I believe I'm not the only one who frowned at the drab grey blending in Tabs of Firefox. I'm not sure why that simple colorful characteristic was overlooked in it's development. I'm sure I explored at least once for an option or Add-On that would make for a more pleasantly viewed Tab Bar experience.

For Me, "Colorful Tabs" has come to my rescue, banishing the dull. drab, primer coat grey Tabs, for New Tabs, decorated in Colors. And in this way, The Author of this Add-On has committed a Beautiful Act of Kindness, which touches our world, and many of our moments, with Happiness, through simple dabs of Color.

Thanks for the Add-On. Thanks for the Color. Thanks for the Kindness.
