Where's the answer to my first question?

When I installed 57, the tab bar which used to be an easy-read Black lettering on a light grey/blue background had changed to an almost illegible White Lettering on Black. I want to change it back and nowhere in Preference is there any reference to this.

Hi,

There's a light theme available that has black text on a white background like you're looking for. To enable it:

  1. click on the hamburger menu (the icon with three bars in the upper-right).
  2. choose "customize"
  3. Click on "themes" in the lower-left corner.
  4. choose "light".
  5. cick "done" in the bottom-right corner.

Hope this helps!

And if you would like to look at other color choices, there's an item on that same menu to check the Add-ons site. (There are too many to browse based on popularity, so try the Solid colors category first.)
