NewScrollbars is an extension that replaces the default scrollbars of Firefox and Thunderbird with colorized ones (partly) known from "Noia themes". It has nothing to do with the "Noia icon set" and reminds us of MacOS scrollbars.
This add-on is mainly for people, who want different "high contrast" scrollbars for their default Firefox theme. These scrollbars can be more kindly for eyes.
"NewScrollbars" extension also works with themes that don't style scrollbars.
Note: If a website is already open and you enable/disable scrollbar options (in the add-ons manager), you will have to reload the page (once) to make changes take effect (for any active, opened or loaded website).
Combine the "NewScrollbars"-extension with NoiaButtons-extensions, if you like to have more "Noia" on default Firefox theme without using a Noia theme.
