Script Summary: Pimp.your.Gmail!
Version: 1.7.1
License: CC by-nc-sa http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/
IMPORTANT NOTE
It seems that the new Interface rolled out by Gmail is not yet available for GApps users. If you are using this script with GApps, you can install an older version(0.9.1) of this script from here, which works correctly. Don't forget to add "http*://mail.google.com/*" to the include list in Greasemoney or it won't load on GApps.
I've added a new style - Revert, which somewhat brings back the flavor of the old gmail interface. Disable it if you want to keep the look of the new interface.
The Pimp.my.Gmail style looks best with the Night Shade theme, but should look OK with the rest of the basic themes & some of the fancy ones.
Languages: There's a good chance this script might blow up if used on Gmail with any language other than English.
I would surely love to add support for other languages too, but that may not be anytime soon.

ABOUT

INSTALLATION
Firefox &
Chrome:Just click the install button, accept the install dialog & you're ready go!.
Chrome users: If you are upgrading to a new version, you will need to uninstall the previous version first.
Opera users might first need to enable User Javascript & designate a folder to store their userscripts.(i use C:\Program Files\Opera\userjs\)
You can find all the help you need regarding this, over here.
If you use Gmail on a secure connection (ie via https) don't forget to read the "User Javascript on secure pages" section.
Once you've done that, right click on the install button & save the script to you're designated folder.
CHROME EXTENSION
Although the script does work out of the box on Google Chrome, if you prefer an extension, AFriend is maintaining one at: Pimp.my.Gmail Chrome Extension.
CHROME EXTENSIONIMPORTANT NOTE: The script on that extension page is not updated (v1.5.3). Looks like he isn't maintaining it anymore. Please install it from here, if you want the latest version.
PS: I do read the comments posted on that page, but somehow, i'm unable to post comments there.
So if you have any issues, please report them over here.
