I don't understand why you have to go and completely change Firefox from what people obviously like...for example the customize option used to be just that...customize it exactly the way we wanted. I like to have all my menu bars, search bar, location bar, etc. all in one line, with the tabs below it (save space on screen for actual web content. Now, ou can't do tat...you have to have all this space devoted to nothing useful, one line for tabs, one for menus, one for location, etc. PLEASE BRING BACK THE GOOD FIREFOX!!!

A lot of us have been using

Classic Theme Restorer (Customize Australis)
Restore squared tabs, appmenu, add-ons bar, small button view and more on Australis UI (Windows/MacOSX/Linux + Fx 29+).

Thank you for the link. I guess this will have to do. It doesn't do everything I want but I think I can handle it. I don't understand why, especially after Windows 8 came out and it was CLEAR that most people hated the crazy changes that Firefox followed suit. Doesn't the tech industry realize that teenagers that have a limited attention span don't run the world. It's older professionals that do all the real work and are the people that spend the $$ that makes the economy go.

Why does everything have to be changed to be cool to 19 year olds when in reality it just ends pissing off most other people? There is a reason that NO university or medical center in the USA will change to Windows 8 because it's too convoluted to figure out how to do the same thing they were doing yesterday on Windows XP or 7...or at least until Windows 8 point whatever comes out that is user friendly again!!

Yes, I know. Lots of users have been venting about everything. If there is something you need, go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page (There’s a lot of good stuff here)
Just search for what you want, or you can post a new question here.
Happy Computing.
