Gmail adds themes

by billso on Wednesday, 19 November 2008

I love Gmail. I like its clean, elegant user interface.

Today, Gmail rolled out themes, so users can make their Gmail screen look as ugly as they’d like. The ASCII theme is nice enough. Green text on a black screen reminds me of PINE.

Your comment about making Gmail as ugly as you like made me think of a 37 Signals post from this morning. The post said the Drudge Report was one of the best designed sites on the web even though it's ugly. Here's the post.

I agree with that article. DR is ugly as sin, but it's got a consistent and fast design.
