The author has marked this style as obsoleted by Google Reader - Compact, Clean & Tweaked.
GR updated its design. Use Google Reader - Compact, Clean & Tweaked instead, it is quite similar but far more enhanced : )
How to install
- Install Stylish plus Kallout for Firefox (or from here for just Stylish or for other Mozilla apps). If you have Stylish already, make sure you have JavaScript enabled.
- You need Firefox with Stylish to use this style. Get Firefox, then install Stylish plus Kallout (or just Stylish), then come back here to install this style.
- for Greasemonkey and Opera users.
Hides everything except the left subscriptions tree and the reading "chrome".
Notes:
The tree remains collapsible (click the divider or press "u") -- its side-effect is re-rendering content, so it may be useful while toggling this userstyle on the fly [works nice in FF3].
Background:
Just backup of simple and quick scratch, which came up quite useful; probably there are some similar or even better versions out there ( http://userstyles.org/styles/search/google%20reader ), but it was easier for me to write this one instead of finding another.
I am quite loyal Bloglines old-school-user-interface-user who started messing with Google Reader (again, for at least tenth time), and cannot stand its bloated UI. (Try it on 800×600 ;] )(update: switched to gR 'definitely').
Changelog:
2008-09-15: + screenshots (600×400 px), code cleanup

Nice but a bit bloated :)
Modified Google Reader way too minimalist to make it more usable on 800x600 screens; even sort of works in 480x240, though search and feed settings are quite inaccessible then.
