Google turned black today day because of Earth Hour. If you’d like to make this change permanent, you can use Stylish with Google Web Search - dark gray redesign (vC) or any of the other dark Google styles.

Stylish is top 3 awesomest for Songbird

Friday, March 7th, 2008

Stylish has won a spot in the top three extensions ported to Songbird. I’m not too sure about the criteria for being in the top 3 other than “awesome”. Nice to be recognized, in any case. I give my thanks back to Stephen Lau of Songbird for the help.
In case you’re wondering, the style in […]

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

I’m losing track of all the things I’m supposed to do, so I’ve put up a bug tracker at bugs.userstyles.org. Feel free to report bugs on userstyles and Stylish in there. Before putting in crazy feature requests, it’s probably best to discuss it in the forum first.
