Here’s the best of the userchrome.css tweaks that I promised to bring to you. If you haven’t read part 2 of 21+ Innovative Firefox Tweaks, now is the time. And you don’t need to go elsewhere to compile the best of the best. All the tweaks are self explanatory. However, here’s a bonus tip. In case you finally decide to clear away all the clutter and start afresh, allyou do is simply rename or remove your userchrome.css file. Another one, before you decide to cut and paste these, make sure there are no conflicting rules (like one trying to disable the throbber and another one trying to enable it at the same time). Over to the tweaks now.

/* TABBROWSER TABS */
/* Make the active tab wider */
tab[selected="true"] { min-width: 200px !important; }
/* Change color of active tab */
tab{ -moz-appearance: none !important; } tab[selected="true"] {
background-color: rgb(222,218,210) !important;
color: black !important; }
/* Change color of normal tabs */
tab:not([selected="true"]) {
background-color: rgb(200,196,188) !important;
color: gray !important; }
/* Kill tabbrowser icons */
/* Note: this leaves some empty vertical space in the tab strip in some themes */
/* Kill all tab icons, no matter what */
.tabbrowser-tabs .tab-icon {
display: none;
