Reviews for Firefox Color
Firefox Color by Mozilla Firefox

Rated 4 out of 5
by nirwana, 3 years agoI really like the idea of this addon to make Firefox more beautiful.
Once I had a nice theme with red and yellow-colors in the presets, but I cannot seem to be able to get it back.
I exported the theme.zip and the theme.xpi, I even tried to add it to the Firefox Marketplace (because Firefox Color suggests to do so, but it was rejected).
When I look inside the theme.xpi I can understand, because it only contains a manifest.json with just some colors defined. I guess that is enough for Firefox Color, but it would be nice if this would write a complete theme.xpi that I can easily distribute to others.
Now I also created a theme with a custom background, but I could not share this by using the Share-button (because it uses a custom background). I would expect that the custom background can be saved as a base64-image and then will be able to share it.
When that would mean that it does not fit in a regular URL than Mozilla can save the theme somewhere online, make it publicly available and just enable sharing the short url with other people.
By using that the complete theme can be downloaded by other users, so they can install it into their Firefox. Then people can easily design themes for their community, just like they can now do using the Firefox light themes (using custom toolbar backgrounds).
IMHO, this extension could have so much more possibilities in the near future.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Duck Soup, 3 days agoIt's amazing I love it but I have three suggestions and one thing that wasn't the best - it slowed down my Firefox a lot and had trouble working...
And my suggestion one is that we could add photos to the new tab page. Second suggestion, move the toolbar photo how we like and not only the three x and three y positions. And last please make this available to phone too uwu.
Other than the one thing that is a bit rough to work with, this is an amazing extension. Thank you! <3 :> - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18224520, 9 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Someguy098, 12 days agoTried to upload my Theme (Used the top bit of some old Destiny 1 Promo Art that was shades of blue with white specks) so others could use it, but it was removed in only 11 minutes for and I quote "Content, specifically Spam: This item has been identified as deceptive, high-volume commercial content which is not permitted by AMO."
There are plenty of other Themes that use Destiny as well as other game IPs. I only tried to upload one that I felt looked good that wasn't similar to any others that I could find and yet it didn't even last 11 minutes.
That said, the Extension itself is good and works well. Just don't try to upload anything for others to use apparently. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15336828, 13 days agoI just don't like pink - but it's default everywhere

- Rated 4 out of 5by Sean L, 17 days agoWould give it 5 stars if it was easier to work off existing themes and tweak them to your liking.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Bomotodo, 2 months agoSimple addon. It's very intuitive and easy to use.
For those who complain about the impossibility to save your customonization (for another device or anything else) , it's because of security. It's quite complicated for new users to deal with that.
BUT THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE : just save or bookmark the URL when you set your colors (it changes after ANY modification you make). After that, you just need to revisit your saved URL to reinstall your custom colors. - Rated 5 out of 5by SillyWrench, 2 months agoExcellent add-on. People with color perception issues can fine tune FF to their needs.
