Pale Moon Commander 1.5.0 has been released which adds a convenient way to change the new tab URL to something custom (whether about:blank, about:home, http://www.disney.com or something else)

Surprisingly, AMO reviewed this add-on almost immediately, skipping almost 200 other add-ons in line :shock:

Well, that's not it's so hard to find, but it's kinda weird to not have at least a redirect for that very useful palemoon addon on the addons.palemoon site !

Had to search the forums to find out what the heck this was.

It was actually painful to open new tabs, as I have a dark theme for everything possible on my PC. Palemoon 25 changed and opened a blank white page with a very transparent palemoon logo, which after looking at dark pages for a length of time, actually caused me to reel back and squint in minor pain.

Thankfully, the fix was a simple about:config edit to change it back to about:blank. Now it's a black screen again and doesn't blind me.

Maybe I'll try that commander utility in future, but for now I'm relatively content. As an aside, does that tool let you control the program icon or do we need to build it ourselves for that?

The page with logo has a system color as a background, not white. if that is not the case then I guess your dark theme is incomplete and does not define a proper menu color.

I use an old version of FT DeepDark (3.2.3) because I didn't agree with a bunch of the design decisions of later versions.

Out of date, yes, but so is my firefox (v28). :)
