Ever since the 4.01 update my menu bar has black text, surrounded by a light gray area, on a black background. I’d like to change these colors but can’t seem to find any way to accomplish this.

Anyone else have this problem? And maybe a solution?

What you need is a Firefox Persona.

> Download themes to change how Firefox looks. Tailor your experience to your tastes. Cute critters, evil robots, beautiful landscapes—thousands of options.

You can mouse over any one and see how it will look before you install it. My personal favorites are the brushed metal ones, YMMV.
