How to make new tab page look like FF 32?
How do I get the new tab page to use smaller tiles consolidated in the middle of the screen like they appeared before updating to FF 33?
I find if much easier to work with the more compact placement of tiles. I understand that some users prefer larger thumbnails and find the scaled tiles to be beneficial, however, I find the older, more compact arrangement to work with.
I already use the Classic Theme Restorer plug-in to get rid of the Australius UI "enhancements," as I find them distracting and inconsistent with my overall system configuration. In general, I like my UI to be compact, and usually prefer corners to the rounded elements that are becoming increasingly common design elements.

Unfortunately, I don't think that there is an add-on that does specifically what you want. With the latest Firefox update, the number of tiles is now determined on screen size - if you zoom out or expand the window you can have more tiles appear.
If you want to set a fixed number of tiles, you can do so with the following extension:

Thanks, the New-Tab-Tools add-on gets me pretty close to what I want.
Stylish looks like it has a lot of capabilities, but I just want to keep a simple, clean interface without much flash. I often have to work on computers that I don't own, and my employer is very particular about the software installed.
New-Tab-Tools seems to be the simplest way to get back to a simpler interface.
Is there a good way to tell Mozilla that some of their design choices suck?
That is changed a bit in Firefox 34, which is slated for release on Nov 25th.
Yes Stylish is highly customizable beyond the new tabs page, so might not be well suited to what you are looking for. The new tabs page is constantly changing/improving so you can try out the default again in the next version of Firefox to see if its to your liking.
