Colorfultabs on the other hand JUST NOW started doing colors based on URL, instead of just random colors. Sure color tabs is older than chroma tabs, but color tabs is actually copying chroma tabs.

What are the best opacity, saturation, and luminosity settings? I have em at defaults and I think they could probably be spiced up a bit...

And the last I checked that XGL-like extension doesn't add any color to your tabs. It is simply for the animation effect which I got sick of rather quickly.

Anyway, nice recomendation. My only question is why you had Yahoo up?
