Removing bookmark icons when the bookmarks are on the main Menu bar

Now that I have all the functionality I want (see note) on one single toolbar, namely the Menu toolbar, I would like to remove the ICONS from the bookmark folders. I prefer text to icons; icons just don't tell me enough.

I tried Bookmarks De-iconizer 2.3, but it does not do the trick on FF 5.0 in Win-XP. In fact, it does nothing at all. Does this add-on only apply to what is on the Bookmarks toolbar itself? Or not to FF 5.0?

Note: The functionality I want consists of the standard Menu items, bookmarks in 4 folders, navigation buttons, and the URL entry-field.

Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files. 

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#personal-bookmarks .toolbarbutton-icon { display: none !important }
