Didn't think there was anything wrong the way it is. Must be getting old.

It does look neat, though I don't think there is anything wrong with the current design. Sure it hasn't changed much, but that's because it just plain works.

Still, it's nice to know that if I ever get bored I have options.


Yick. I do like (and use) Jon Hicks' style for Google Reader, though:

That's sick. Works in FFb4 as well. Over time it may get tiresome, though.


Over time it may get tiresome, though.

Like, say, the first 24 hours, after which your eyeballs fall out of their bleeding sockets. That skin is hideous!

Google puts a good deal of effort into usability, and comparing the existing interface with this skin helps to show why that is the case.


But... but... it has gradients! → http://sp.reddit.com/chart.png
