Changing the colour works fine for me. I've noticed that if I switch the extension on while at Google's homepage, nothing happens until I navigate to a new webpage (or type in a search query) and then click 'on' again. Not a big problem for me, though.

Not helpful at all. Super buggy and it lets you change the colour once but then it doesn't turn off even when you press off, DO NOT INSTALL.
