You could use the Custom Tab Width extension https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/custom-tab-wi... Or, you could make a UserChrome.css file in your profile directory and put this in it (edited):

  /*
   * Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
   */
  @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */

  .tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned]) {
    max-width: 250px !important;
    min-width: 100px !important;
  }
  .tabbrowser-tab:not([fadein]) {
    max-width: 1px !important;
    min-width: 1px !important;
    max-width: 1px;
    min-width: 1px;
  }

How do I change it back? I can't seem to reposition it on the address bar :S

I don't know!

I guess the new thing is that they want anything they don't think is a primary feature in an add on, so I expect that's what it will take.

It was just another change to complain about.
