My Firefox bookmarks just changed dramatically overnight after I upgraded to Snow Leopard OS 10.6.8. I don't want the icons which take up space

I used to be able to keep about 45 frequently used bookmarks on the bookmarks toolbar which was simply one line when I had OS 10.5.8 (Leopard). Now there are colorful icons and boxes and spaces between each bookmark and I can barely get 20 on the tool bar. This really is annoying. I like just having small text and a space between the bookmarks. Is there any way of simply going back to the old way of displaying them so I can access more of them and not get distracted by all the extra added icons? I don't need a multicolored pocket book next to the Ebay bookmark! Please help me. Progress sometimes isn't always good.

Perhaps you were using an add-on to suppress the icons, such as the old Bookmarks Deiconizer extension?

Some alternatives now that that one no longer works:

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

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

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

The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
  • Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
  • Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
  • Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
  • Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file
