userChrome.css in the chrome folder is a CSS file that can be used to change the way Mozilla applications' interfaces look. This file does not exist in a new profile. You can create it manually.

Editing

This file is designed to be manually edited using a text editor. Anything valid in a CSS file is valid in this file. To make the changes take effect, you must restart the application.

For sample styles, see:
