I need to change the color of the font in my Bookmark Toolbar. Unable to read all bookmarks.

No longer have a question about editing the Bookmarks Toolbar. I may be dense, but I have not discovered how I may change the text (font) color when using View, Bookmarks, Custom. I see the capability to choose to use text and image, but not to change the color of the text. The ability to "bold" the text would probably be sufficient. I will revisit the Getting Started page and select other background colors to try and alleviate the problem. Persona or thema colors conflict with black text (for my older eyes - I have a vision problem.).

You can make such a change with code in userChrome.css

Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration#How_to_edit_configuration_files

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#personal-bookmarks .toolbarbutton-text {
color: black !important;
background-color: -moz-dialog !important;
font-size: 11pt !important;
font-weight: bold;
}

You can adjust the values or leave out things that you do not want to change.
