Add Some Color to the Awesome Bar

Is the awesome bar a little bland for you?  Firefox 3’s address bar seems to be something people either really love or love to hate.  Now due to a little creativity and the Stylish extension you can color it up a little ‘bit to help usability.

Colorful, isn’t it?  If you like this you may also want to check out more work by the creator, -=Ben=-.

I really didn’t like the Awesome Bar very much, but this color scheme brings hope to it. I liked the use of colors to diferentiate the various types of URL suggestions. The default is a little confuse for me.

Adding icons to history lines should be useful too:

.ac-result-type-favicon {
list-style-image: url(”chrome://browser/skin/places/history.png”);
}
