Love GMail, but hate the look of it? Well do something about it and create your own stylesheet so that you can have a more enjoyable experience. That’s what Mihai over at Persistent.info shows us how to do.
The quick instructions include:
- Install the URLid Mozilla/Firefox extension.
- Download this CSS file.
- Locate your profile folder and the
chromefolder within that. - Copy the downloaded CSS file to the
chromefolder and rename it touserContent.css(if you already have such a file, you will have to merge the two). - Restart Firefox.
- Visit Gmail.
Good stuff.
Scrivs,
I tried to do this, but the CSS File link above is not working …

Sorry about that. Go to the site and use his links instead. I will have to correct these tomorrow because I don’t have the css file on my server so therefore the link doesn’t work.
Sorry about that John.
Scrivs,
No worries… Already did :)
Was more of a heads up to let you know something went BORK

Awesome; I tweaked the css a bit and now Gmail has the exact colorscheme I want.
It’s nice, but I wish I new the classes for the compose mail box. I have it how I want, but that compose box is still blue.
Hey I looked at your pic at Deviantart…
where can I download this CSS file
