Hi Everyone:
I never come on these forums.
But I absolutely HATE what you have done with the toolbar buttons.
The old toolbar buttons were business-like, solid in form, with straight vertical/horizontal lines, easily recognizable and distinguishable one from the other
This new crop of tool bar buttons look so childish, half-formed, stick-animations monochromatic, ill-conceived unprofessional-looking and confusing to the eye.
I don't understand -
Why change for change sake!
The new tasktar buttons are absolutely awful. And its very disappointing.
Regards
Robert

Hi, many here love it.
Use icons from the theme Subtle.

Thanks for this solution.
I prefer the more colorful Vivaldi Theme - I don't like grey/white space - the Subtle Theme is a bit drab for my liking - but I can live with the Subtle Theme as it brings back the old tool bar buttons which I very much prefer.
Of course, it would be nice if the Toolbar Editor offered you the option to go back to the old toolbar buttons, but using the Subtle Theme is a decent enough compromise.
Quick question: Are there any other Themes that use the old style toolbar buttons that I should try??
Thanks again.

@RobertCohen27 There are several of them. You can just try hit and miss. I don't recall which all ones use the old icons, but if you use the "Subtle" theme, you can literally make it as colorful at you like. You can change everything about it.

With the setting in my image you can just use the icons of Subtle, you don't need to change your theme.
All old themes are on the Vivaldi themes page.https://themes.vivaldi.net/categories/vivaldi-official

@RobertCohen27 Surely you mean "New streamlined modern buttons."
-
Gotcha!
Right. Perfect!
I don't have to change the Theme.
Just point the Theme to the Subtle Theme Toolbar buttons.
Great!! Thanks.
I AM HAPPY!

While I dislike Vivaldi for making this opt-out change for long-time users, I also love Vivaldi for maintaining the ability through customization to effectively revert the 7.0 UI update. The cartoon icons and unnecessary whitespace everywhere was confounding and maddening, but Vivaldi is once again as I liked it! Thank you!
