CRAP, Google has radically changed their way of using styles !
If I ever find a way to bypass that, I'll update it. For now, just go to edit this style and Disable it..

Combining http://userstyles.org/styles/3049 http://userstyles.org/styles/3050 http://userstyles.org/styles/172 and some others.
Also based on some Dark Gray code from Dargoth;
- a little less dark fonts, as well as no snow-whites (less contrast)
- not such a HUGE Search-bar
- monospaced non-html and compose font
- light-grey centered logon screen
- some screen-economics, and many other patches.

- Corrected problem with missing "submit" (Next step) buttons when Adding new e-mail etc. (thanks Jaap!)

This will probably be updated regularly (it's the one I use myself).

This script is GREAT. I've found a way to get around it not working with gmail's new gmail code:
1) Either click "older version" at the top of gmail every time you log in OR
2) Install the redirector addon for firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5064
After restarting Firefox after install of redirector, enter the following settings under Tools > Redirector > Add:
Example URL: https://mail.google.com/mail/?shva=1
Pattern: https://mail.google.com/mail/?shva=1
Redirect to: https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=1
x Wildcard
Hit OK and Close and you're done! Log out of gmail, then back in. Once you see your inbox, you should be good to go!

I totally agree. This is an XLNT gmail theme. Too bad it stopped working... and too bad I don't know where to start when it comes to fixing it. Actually it works on and of, but an update is surely needed. Anyone? ****

I absolutely loved this!!! My very fist intro to gmail, and the dark style really had me head over heels in love. Unfortunately, it seems to have stopped working all of a sudden. I don't know why. Its loaded into Stylish, I haven't edited the code... :/ I haven't updated firefox recently either. In fact, I think I installed this after the latest update. help? Eh, either way, very awesome style! ****

Great job! One beef: the message text now seems unnecessarily huge. How can I get rid of this? ****

This is one of the best dark themes for Gmail, hands down!
I just hope you can stay updated with the bug fixes of the other scripts. ^_~ *****
