Gmail Skins

Gmail Skins is a Firefox extension that lets you change the look of your Gmail inbox (amongst some other things).

It adds the following features:

  • Change the colour/skin of your inbox
  • Insert smileys/emoticons and images in to your emails
  • Make the navigation (Inbox, Starred, Sent Mail, etc) horizontal
  • Fix the navigation in place so that you don’t have to scroll to the top of the page to see it
  • Zebra stripes on mailbox - pretty!
  • Change the attachment paperclip (on inbox) to an icon indicating the type of attachment
  • Hide various page elements (invite panel, page footer, your email address from the top right of inbox - may be useful for public computers)

I just installed it and it seems to work fine. Of course there are the normal warnings that if you have problems with Gmail afterwards, uninstall the skin rather than contacting Google.
