There are, however, a couple rare sites that I do have the desire to change. The main culprit being Google. More specifically, Google is too white (no that's not racist.) Luckily, I can darken Google (that is, _real_ Google, not the Google Dark site. Mostly because if I want to use Google's new search sandbox, Caffeine, the customized Google frontends can't do that.
Getting to the point, I can modify the CSS for any site I want using FireFox's UserContent.css file. Here's a CSS snippet to darken Google's search results pages:
@-moz-document url-prefix(http://www.google.com/search), url-prefix(http://www2.sandbox.google.com) { body, #gsr { background-color: #111 !important; color: #ccc !important; } #ssb, #tbd, #bsf, #mbEnd, #tads { background-color: #222 !important } #mbEnd { border-left-color: transparent !important } a, .link { color: #7bC !important } }Here's a screenshot of the result:
And here's another handy trick: You can also remove those huge iframe ads from Google Reader in the same way:
@-moz-document url-prefix(https://www.google.com/reader/), url-prefix(http://www.google.com/reader/) { #viewer-container iframe { display: none !important } }
