Works great! What a nice relief to have plain, simple, non-eye-straining new tab pages. (Now if this Firefox site would only offer a dark version... :?P )
This extension will be even better we can choose our background colour (e.g. an even darker gray). The author's FAQ page says this is an upcoming feature.
