Gmail Bland

I was unhappy with the new Gmail and tried 'The Return of the Old Gmail' by Techably. After using that style I decided to try modifying it a bit to reduce contrast. The result was 'Gmail Bland'. While it looks nothing like the old Gmail, I realized some of the appeal behind the old Gmail had to do with softer color combinations that were much easier on the eyes. 'Gmail Bland' is simply a style that tries to eliminate harsh contrasts to make it easier to focus on content without being distracted by the garish and visually draining motif in the new Gmail. Two things I was unable to alter include changing the red 'send' button to something less alarming as well as the black border in the chat box. Since I am not savvy with css and just used trial and error to modify Techably's style, I welcome and appreciate any modifications and advice to improve this style.

Gmail / Google Mail Classic Blue Theme

Turn the new Gmail Light or Android themes into classic Gmail This is far from exact, but if you find the new gmail themes hard to read, this will feel like slipping into a comfortable set of old blue jeans. Features: * Classic light blue/blue-gray coloring (easy on the eyes) * No angry red buttons or angry red menu highlights * Classic polished silver button styling * Reply panel is replicated in classic old school gray then blue when expanded * Messages and threads are outlined with thin rounded boxes approximating the old look Update: * Change gray in search area and logo area to white background * Rejoice with a white against blue google bar with subtle gradient, just like the old one ** I really should make this a separate plugin

Gmail - More Minimalist

Aggressively hides Gmail's UI and chrome, leaving a simplified view of your email, labels, and search box. Inspired by Matt Constantine's Minimalist Gmail browser extension: http://mattconstantine.com/mg . Home page: http://snarfed.org/more_minimalist_gmail Tips: - Use the keyboard shortcuts! This userstyle expects that you do; it's pretty much unusable otherwise. More details: http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6594 - If you're using Stylish, you can temporarily show the hidden features by turning off Stylish. Click the Stylish icon and select Turn all styles off. When you're done, select Turn all styles on. Bonus tip: if you do this often, add a keyboard shortcut with keyconfig: http://snarfed.org/firefox_keyconfig_extension - You can hide individual labels in the GMail settings Labels tab: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#settings/labels . This includes built in labels like Starred, Important, Chats, Circles, etc.

Gmail - Add labels to toolbar icons

Override the mystery meat navigation in the new Gmail UI. Adds text labels back in alongside the Gmail icons. Recommended: http://userstyles.org/styles/56063/gmail-easy-access-colored-buttons Gmail Easy Access Colored Buttons EDIT: Gmail now has an option to switch the standalone icons to text (Hurrah!), but this userstyle is still useful if you want both - keep the icons enabled on Gmail, and this userstyle will add the labels alongside the icons.

GMail - Remove ads and relocate action links

This style removes the ad panel from Gmail or Google Apps Mail, relocates the action links (Print all, new window, etc.) from the side bar to above the mail subject, and widens the mail content area. ****** DEPRECATED ****** This is not working anymore after the update that brought the "People" widget in the right side column. It may be replaced by GMail - People Widget Drawer (with ad blocking).

Gmail Redesigned... and then some

This style modifies the Gmail style included in this add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search?q=google+redesigned&cat=all). Please install this add-on before using my style. Here are some of the modifications I made to the original Gmail Redesigned style to suit my needs: 1. Email list scrolls (thanks to http://userstyles.org/styles/7013) 2. Removed Contacts button, Tasks button, and "Invite a friend" box, since I don't use these. 3. Removed "Archive", "Labels", and "Move to" buttons from upper toolbar, since I don't use these. 4. Repositioned "Print all", "New window", "Expand/Collapse all", "Turn off/on highlighting" buttons. Removed "Forward all" button. 5. Removed stars and labels, since I don't use these, and repositioned dates/times in email list 6. You will notice other adjustments as well, but I've covered the important items that won't be displayed
