I miss Favicon Picker. I use folders on my Bookmark Toolbar, and now they all look the same. Is there a way to change them without having to know CSS?

Chosen solution

As I recall, none of the Favicon Picker extension had any features for changing Bookmark Folders. But then again it's been 4 or 5 years since any of the three FP extensions worked in Firefox. I gave up when the first version died, never wasted my time with 'Picker2 and 'Picker3.

You really don't need to "know" CSS to be able to work with "user" code, all you need is the code that someone else posted in a Mozilla support forum. Or a UserStyle to be added to Stylish. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ https://userstyles.org/styles/browse?search_terms=bookmark+folder

Here's a couple that I found on the first page of a search at UserStyles.org - https://userstyles.org/styles/9091/bookmarks-toolbar-blue-folders-red-bookmarks https://userstyles.org/styles/46947/bookmarks-toolbar-fx4-blue-folders-red-bookmarks
