I used to have a customised "skin" but now it is not there, why?

I now have a grey menu line at the top and I had chosen to have an orange one I can't find out how to get it back. Also there used to be a Firefox button on the extreme top left of the menu bar and in this I could choose to print preview before I printed off a page - sometimes the orientation needed to be adjusted - and I can't find this. This button used to also allow me to send a link to the page by email - where is this? I really hate it when useful features like this are just taken away just because somebody thinks that it will be more "modern". I also play some Facebook games and there can be a delay in these. My husband keeps telling me to change over to Chrome as this works faster on his PC which is right next to mine. I have resisted so far but I must admit that this latest "update" has left me wondering if I should stay with Firefox!!!!

hello Elainemay, as you have noticed firefox 29 comes with a new design - the menu has moved to the right of the toolbar on all platforms: Learn more about the design of the new Firefox version 29

the print preview & send a link buttons are still be there & you can customize firefox to your flavour to an extend your husband's browser probably isn't able to do: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars

if you prefer to have an orange background you can look at one of these themes: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/search/?q=orange&cat=themes
