How do I change colors of tabs

I downloaded Firefox 4 on to both my desktop (XP) & laptop (Win7). On the laptop the tabs are a bright color, including the tabs that are not open. On my desktop, they are a dark color and the unopened tabs are difficult to read.

T tried going to Tools/options/content/colr and changing the background but that doesn't work, even if I close FF and reopen it.

Any guidance would be appreciate.

You do not need to download themes or extensions. You can left click the Add to Firefox button to install the theme. You need to close Firefox (File > Exit) and restart Firefox after selecting a different theme.

Thanks for the link, but after downloading it, I have no idea how to use it. I look under add-ons, appearances, and there it is, but no directions on how to use it.
