Work found in this style has moved to:
greasy black - google 2008 ( ALL except GMail )
--[description]------------------------------------
- GMail ( Beta 1, Beta 2, basic HTML )
- Image Search
- iGoogle
- Maps
- Video
- Web Search
- ... etc.
I can't make it 100% GMail compatible. To do that, I have to stop stripping styles from tags at the top, and that's more than half of what made this one as quick and simple as it was, to style the entire domain. Negation on the /* Normalize visual style */ selectors was making them too specific to be overwritten later by normal means.

When replying to a message in GMail the text that is being typed is black against a dark gray background...........a light color would be great for this.
Thanks again!

Excellent style. Exactly what I was looking for.
One small problem. When I reply to/compose an email in Gmail, I get black text on a dark grey background. Makes it very difficult to read.
Thanks.

The best design eye I've seen for GMail 2.0 so far, and, as you said author, still needs a lot of work.
One particular issue that is a deal-breaker for me: Chat windows, including profile mouseovers on the side, are transparent, and show everything that is underneath them, which is usually some part of the inbox, rendering chat completely unusable unless you "pop out" chat windows every time.
Also, the inability to distinguish between a chat person's name and their status is very troublesome.
Other things that need to be fixed:
- Difference between read and unread messages in the inbox need to be more distinct.
- Unstarred messages look brighter than starred messages. Darken the unstarred (and fix the terrible aliasing around the starred messages).
- Tighten up the space between the top search field and the Compose Message link, and everything below it. That space at the top has been totally abused by Google. Should be eliminated completely.
- Suggest removing the "grid" background image. It's kind of cheesey. Perhaps make the background color itself slightly lighter.Keep up the noble work.
