I have changed my Email Client to Gmail.. I was fed up with Hotmail low features and bad Linux support.. So I am happy with Gmail and Thunderbird.. Though I don't use mail.google.com now . Thanks to Thunderbird but having a pimped Inbox is a great thing :)

Gmail default look is pretty plain and simple.. But how about this ?

To Make your Inbox look like this.. You must use the following things.

  1. Firefox 2.x + or Flock 1.x +
  2. Addons : Stylish Extension *addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108


After you install both of the things.. Open this page *www.globexdesigns.com/gmail/gmail.css .. In the Right Side of the Status Bar you have Stylish Icon. . Open The page and Right Click the Stylish Icon.. and Select Add Files to Stylish !

Bingo. You have just added a Custom Look to you Gmail Account.. SImilarly you can pimp different websites using Stylish !

Yup.. it's a new version.. recently released. Had tried GR 1.0 earlier.. was the best look I got of plain ol GMail... GR 2.0 seems more presentable & fast.

I hope there is something similar for imap + kmail.
This looks brilliant. Goes well with Ubuntu Studio or KDEmod. :D
