I have upgraded to Firefox 4 and because the menu bars were 'ugly' put in a persona. Now I find that the Tab bar is transparent, which makes it hard to read.

How can I change the Tab bar to a solid colour and still keep the persona.

And if there is a solution can it please be put into simple terms for someone who only has a bit of computer skill.

thanks :)

You can try a solid persona.

Yes, that works, thank you, but is it bad to say I want it my way..now that I actually picked a persona that I like, I really don't want a solid colour. But I can't see why the tab bar was made transparent....It makes it hard to read. There is no benefit to this at all ::sigh::

I already have the transparency off in that area. But I have found a round about if not a direct solution.

I've added Colourful Tabs to my Add on's and find that even though it is colourful, it makes for far easier reading and identification. Also the transparency of the Tab Bar is gone.

But thanks for your advise.
