Change the color of the Downloads arrow
When I download something, the arrow pointing to the downloads overview turns blue. The color distracts me, I want it to always stay gray. Is it possible to somehow access the file containing the blue arrow and replace it woth the gray one?

This is how is was changed before Australis: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../971586
However I will wait for one of our experts to check out if they know if this is still valid.
You can find the current CSS code for the download indicator in this file:
- chrome://browser/skin/browser.css
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
@namespace url("https://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#downloads-button[cui-areatype="toolbar"][attention] > #downloads-indicator-anchor > #downloads-indicator-icon {
background-image: -moz-image-rect(url("chrome://browser/skin/Toolbar.png"),0,198,18,180) !important;
}
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
Note that you can disable the animation by toggling this pref to false on the about:config page:
- browser.download.animateNotifications = false
I have created the userChrome file as descibed by MozillaZine (neither it nor the Chrome folder existed). I added the code provided by you. I have restarted the browser. Still the arrow turns blue when I download something. Have I misunderstood something?
