Considering a few websites stopped working for me seeing as I was still using 3.6.X, I reluctantly decided to finally upgrade today, and it automatically upgraded to version 12. Needless to say, I wanted it to look exactly as it did in 3.6.26, and I spent a good portion of the day tinkering with various add-ons and the like to get things back the way they were. One thing is still bugging me though, the tabs, which I managed to get to the bottom of the screen, still dont look exactly as they did. There used to be a small dividing line between the tabs and the actual page, and the + on the new tab button was smaller (and I know this all seems rather picky, but it does bother me). And while I'm at it, is there any add-on that will give me the same back/forward, X, refresh, and home icons as 3.6.26? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You should update as soon as possible to the current Firefox 17.0.1 release.

I'm fine sticking with 12 for now, the only problem I'm having is with it not looking like 3.6.X, so if you could help with either of the problems I mentioned above, that would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Try this extension for the button:

It should be possible to get the needed modifications.

You can check out this MozillaZine forum thread and ask there for advice about how to tweak the user interface.
