hence the reason for half the open source software out there! why make it when something is already available... cause you can tinker and make it better! Google i'm sure tinkered and made search engines better, and the like!

True. On the other hand, there's also a tendency to just fool with stuff to see when it breaks.
(Although that can be fun, too.)

Google has skins on the todo list, FYI.

Well, it might be, mondine, but there are pictures of how GMail will look after kinning on Skin GMail. And, in my opinion, normal GMail looks way better than those.

This is what I meant by a 'not useful result'.

Yes, I've seen that, and I don't think it's very attactive, either.

Yep. Personally, I'd rather like the way the normal GMail looks.

That's why you change the color scheme.

IamTheKing9 · 10-16-2005, 02:04 AM

So you can change the colour scheme after skinning?
