okay, i feel i should share a few of the hacks with you people, they're really cool and hopefully you will thank me for it

So first of all open up a new tab
and then type

about:config

you will then be given a message much like this

It's okay i won't be changing anything serious but if you don't want to play around a little bit then i wouldn't suggest carrying on

After clicking the button you will be presented with a search bar. you will enter what you will want to change there

First off lets start with the close buttons, i don't really use them as i use the button on the scroller thingy on the mouse but now i have it all set up like this to make things cooler :D



to do this click the filter bar at the top and copy

browser.tabs.closeButton

into the box
double click the only result that showed up and set the number to 3


So another edit is for browser.tabs.tabMaxWidth

This controls the maximum size for the tabs. By default it's normally 250 which is Biiiig this time i set it to 100 and got this result:



Which is just small enough for me :D

Now what about making tabs smaller while you have more tabs open.

Similer to this

+We get this by changing the value of browser.tabs.tabMixWidth to 25 instead of 100 which we made the maximum size
