With this new version, 29.0.1, it has become difficult to read background tabs due to transparancy
I would like to either be able to adjust the amount of transparency or just turn the transparency off.
I do not want to add add-ons, as I believe they slow things down. Also one of the add-ons to restore this version back to the last version puts the square tabs back, and I like them rounded...
Finding it unusable, so am having to use Chrome at the moment... :-(
Please fix this!

With most add-ons, it will take a few more milliseconds to start Firefox when you first start your computer. In other words, there's no noticeable impact on performance.

- Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
- Next to Classic Theme Restorer, click the Options button.
- On the Main tab, in the top left corner, choose "Curved tabs (alternative)". Close the options window when done.

It's more complicated without an add-on, but if you insist…
- Go to Brighter background tabs - Australis - Firefox 29 | userstyles.org.
- Click the Show CSS button.
- Copy all the code to the clipboard.
- Launch Notepad and paste the clipboard contents in a new file.
- Save the file as "userChrome.css" — including the quotes — on your desktop.
- In Firefox, type about:support into the address bar and press Enter.
- Click the Show Folder button.
- In the Windows Explorer window that opens, create a new folder called chrome.
- Move the userChrome.css file into the chrome folder.
- Restart Firefox for the change to take effect.
- If you already have a userChrome.css file, add the new style at the bottom, and make sure the @namespace line appears only once at the top of the file.

Excellent! Thank you. :-)
Still think that they need to review this feature in the next version... :-(
