This style is based on Hide Gmail/Google Appbar by sewpafly. I removed the ugly backgrounds, and replaced the somewhat vague "globe" icon with a more visible green arrow icon.
I also fixed the positions of the icon and the menu, so they look better and fit nicely with the rest of the Gmail layout.
The green arrow, by the way, is the "go-next" icon from the Tango Icon Gallery.
-------
Update [11.09.06]: For some reason I gave the credit of the original style to the wrong user. Sorry about that, sewpafly.
I made the domain change a while ago, but I guess I neglected to update the online version afterwards. Thanks for writing me about your version, sewpafly, for I would have never remembered to look at my code again. :D

I recently updated mine --> Hide Gmail/Google Appbar to have rounded corners, different shaded background and to work with Google Calendar if you want to grab the changes. :) Anyone should feel free to make as many modifications to styles as possible. I think they're awesome.

it's also not working for me - the google bar just shows all the time now, no hiding :-(
otherwise it's been a great addition!

I don't imagine anyone would mind and I think most would appreciate your posting the modifications. Personally, I post mine as a comment on the original style but, so long as credit's given the author, I don't think it matters. What really irks me is someone changing nothing more than a colour and posting that as a "style".

I don't mind the menu bar always being there, but I love how it looks with no background! Which only requires the code:
table.ccc {
background: none !important;
}
