ColorfulTabs version 3.8 comes alive on AMO

ColorfulTabs 3.8 was released today. The new version comes with several bug-fixes and had been eagerly awaited for compatibility with the newer Firefox 3.1 beta releases.

Following are the bugs that have been fixed in this release.

Changes:

Added a default background image by default to enhance visibility of the selected tabs.

I found that adding a background-image by default made the appearance more pleasing as it adds transparency to the background tabs. How do you like it?

1 Vaer December 13, 2008 at 6:17 pm: So how do I get back the original background?

It looks terrible with the new background and pretty bad without any background as I have it now.

3 ·MÅXïê»»X· December 13, 2008 at 11:17 pm: ohh – and I had to up the fade level to 3 with this current background that I’m using. It was smart to have this feature included. Play around with it for each background/color scheme/theme that you choose.
