Where can one get Google reader skins?


I am kind of fed up with Google reader’s dull blue and white layout. So I want to change its look and make it more exciting in appearance. I heard that Google reader themes and skins can modify the appearance of Google reader and make your user experience much better. But do not know where to download it. If someone has any idea about it pls share?

I've been using Flickr as a little test for a new site theme I've been working for Google Reader. We, after Bloglines, I bet you saw it coming right?

Same exercise again in a while. There may well be rare and inconsistencies, and Google could make radical changes in the marking of the morning of the reader, cleaning up the whole show. But for what it's worth, here it is! Not trying to be original or "better" than the default theme is simply trying to make it look like a Mac OS X application - that's all you want!

in fact, although this can create errors, it really solves a problem I was seeing on Web-Kit browsers with CSS by default. When scrolling, some sidebar elements would be annoying to go up and down. No more!

Changes
17/4/07 - Fixed two bugs that bother most people, I reinstalled the font list to highlight and press U now shows the width of the full entry list
Installation
Download gReader.zip. There are 2 versions, one for Mozilla browsers and one for WebKit and Opera.
Firefox
Once you have installed the extension in style, just copy and paste the css in the "creation of styles for this page" window.

Camino

In Camino, either paste this into your / Library / Application Support / Camino / file chrome /userContent.css, or if that file does not exist, the name of the file user Content.cssg reader.css. The theme will be applied when you restart Camino.

Safari
Once installed Safari stand, place the file in your user greader.css / Library / Safari / Stand /User Style Sheets folder. Then visit Google Reader, go to Safari Stand> Site Alteration> Settings. Add the site, allow the alteration of the site and select the file from the list GReader. Make sure the pattern matching is www.google.com. You may have to empty the cache, restart Safari and refresh before seeing the changes!

You can get themes on userstyles.org.
