Change color of remote content warning
I like to be able to either accept or not accept the remote content for each message, mostly I don't need it, so I don't want to accept it in general.
However, the yellow bar, which I mostly ignore, is quite distracting when browsing through the mails, so I would like to change the color.
I already tried several approaches with the userChrome.css, like linked below, none of them worked for me. I am using the newest version of Thunderbird on Windows 11.

The following CSS works for me:
div.container {
--message-bar-background-color: #27272a; /* your background color */
--message-bar-text-color: #c6c6ca; /* your text color */
}

Help/Troubleshooting Info, Profile Folder, Open Folder, close TB, create a new folder named chrome, create a new document in chrome with a text editor, name it userChrome.css, Save as type: All files *.*, copy in the above code, change the colours as desired. Double-click toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true in Settings/General/Config. editor, restart TB.
