Google Reader Absolutely Customizable

By DustinLuck — Last update Feb 20, 2012 — Installed 98,085 times.

Script Summary: Allows certain Google Reader page elements to be hidden, resized or modified. (See screenshot for list of options.)



Version: 3.11.2012.220

Thumb Thumb
To access the options dialog, choose 'Customize...' from the Google Reader Subscriptions drop-down menu (see screenshot). After choosing the options you want, click Save and the page will be refreshed with the new options in effect. This script is based off the Google Reader Absolutely Compact Stylish script. An options dialog has been added so that individual tweaks can be set independently without the need for modifying the script. (Special thanks to JoeSimmons for making the GM_config script available.)
