My question: is there a way to force a light TB theme and use white tab background text color?

I installed a theme add-on which I like except the associated dark theme. I want to use the theme image with a light TB theme but it appears the tab background text color determines the theme color (light or dark). This image has some darker colors and a light/white tab text looks the best, but this color seems to force a dark theme for the rest of TB (White text ->dark theme). If I change the manifest file to use a different tab background text color I can change the overall theme to light or dark. Using a darker or black tab background text color the theme changes to a light theme. Light tab background text color changes to a dark theme and darker tab background text colors forces a light them. I'm guessing there is a threshold 1/2 way between black and white text that will force the theme one way or another.

The articles I have read on this json file don't provide any examples and this is as far as I have been able to get. I'm new to both TB and modifying this json file. Any help would be appreciated

Greetings!

I downloaded a theme that I really like for Thunderbird, but I would like to ask for your help. I would like to change part of the frame to a different color (similar to the one on the left), but I don't know how to do it. I am attaching a photo where I have circled the part I would like to change with red lines.

Thanks for your answers!

Does anyone else have the issue where the interface just looks bad? It's like I'm using an old version of Microsoft office on a Windows 3.1 machine. I see in the settings I can change the font sizes for composing emails but how about the system interface? Others say "just download a theme" but could someone recommend one? This current font makes me want to delete this software and look for alternatives. I only checked out this software because Microsoft sucks. And I'm about ready to leave this one also.

Turns out you cant use your own stuff until it is approved, Sorry for this question I am absolutely new to firefox workshop. Case closed (Please delete it because I couldn't find how to do that)

i am unable to see my installed themes and therefore can not use them. the only thing that i can see is "extensions" and "plugins". i looked online for a few hours and have found no solutions that work.

I have installed an animated theme for my home page a while back, but recently if I minimize firefox the memory usage increases until it freezes my pc completely. I know this issue has been reported as Bug 1828587 2 years ago and it is said that it is fixed, but here I am experiencing the same thing. I would appreciate any help since I am not that good at coding a css file. Here is my userContent.css code if maybe i set something up wrong:

@-moz-document url("about:newtab"), url("about:home"), url(about:privatebrowsing) {

   /* Sets background image and autoscale image to browser window. */
   body {
       background-image: url("wallpapers/wallpaper.avif") !important;
       background-size: cover !important;
       background-repeat: no-repeat !important;
       background-attachment: fixed !important;
       background-position-x: center !important;
       background-position-y: bottom !important;
   }

   @-moz-document url("about:newtab"), url("about:home") {
       .top-site-outer .title {
           color: white !important;
       }

       .logo-and-wordmark .wordmark {
           fill: white !important;
           color: #00aaff !important; /* fallback for text */
       }

       .context-menu-button.icon {
           fill: white !important; /* for SVG-based icons */
           color: white !important; /* for any text-based fallback */
           opacity: 1 !important; /* ensure visible even when normally dimmed */
       }
   }

The second part is to make some of the text on my homepage white so it is visible.
