In the dark - thunderbird with white on black text


By thomas - Posted on 18 March 2009

I prefer a dark theme. I've lived with thunderbird doing a bad job of that for a while. I finally decided to fix it. I found this page which had what I wanted. To change the color of the links in email messages, edit userContent.css and change the color for a:link. I set the background and foreground color also (they are set in the theme also, but this seems to help sometimes. body { color: white; background-color: black; } a:link {color: #a53f10} td {color: black; background-color: white} Then to change the color of the links for From: To:, edit userChrome.css to change the colour of the links there. .emailDisplayButton { color: #a53f10 !important; } These are light orange colour, change to your preference. They should be pretty obvious at least (you can see what you changed)...

Nice!! Dou you know by any chance how to change the colors of the "website" link in the header section of a feed article? The eMailDisplayButton class doesn't seem to work there.

Thx!
