Stylish addon for firefox

Have you ever stumbled on an interesting site, but wondered whether the author couldn`t have made those fonts bigger? or what about these pages with colours unfriendly with the sensitive eyes? (Bright green on white = yuck! )
Also, what if you could make those annoying ads transparent?

Now, imagine you could customise any site`s css rendering according to your personal tastes and needs, does that sound to be a plausible solution?

Well, actually it really is, and that is what the stylish addon is for. With this nifty tool on your firefox, (or lolifox, sectarism against minorities is bad, even more when i personally am part of the minority ) lol ) you will be able to create custom css for any site you visit, and you can even use css to customise your browser`s interface! D Furthermore, you can even create global styles which apply to every site you visit.

However, you need some knowledge of css to create user styles. fear not however if you do not know any css. there is an online repository at userstyles.org where users contribute their styles for free D

link to download extension is HERE

ready made userstyles can be found HERE

Also, if you are planning to create your own user styles for specific sites, i highly recommend downloading the web developer extension too, so that you can easily identify the css class of objects on a page.

damn, with greasemonkey for javascript this trio forms the ultimate combo for a customised web experience! D

Now some pics of what i have till now:

Please don`t be offended if i took your site as an example. its not that i don`t like your design choices, just that i needed a site as an example D

    @ waz, haha nopes, actually i often came upon interesting sites (contentwise) but eye-straining beyond the limit my eyes can support D thats why i just chose a style which puts everything in black. D

    interesting…but i’m with nym on this one!
    if the author wants their site (e.g. mine) to be boring so be it! i’m not going to change it coz i’m not going there again! D

    well, apart from some extreme cases (cielblog?) i wouldnt need this, but those screens are damned cool so am downloading the ext too lol

    anyway, vkp? u interested in killing your brand new fone? (Just kidding, its safe if u know enough to look for your exact firmware, cid and region ) ) i`ll show you on msn D

  15. See my profile on MyBlogLog.com! Kyushiro Says:

    Haha and @ nym, lol grinnod am not really into redesigning specific sites so i just created a universal `blackening` style which i just turn on or off according to my moods D
    And for the ads, good guess! this is what i would have done normally, but then i decided to just add only 2 lines to the global black style (jutsu adapted from here ) that`s a bit cleaner D .

    @ yashvin lol lol almost all sites i view (yours included) pass perfectly with the css in my main black userstyle (except for some glitches here and there, for eg. pseudo-transparend headers (like mine! lol))which makes some sites look real strange!

  16. See my profile on MyBlogLog.com! Nym Says:

    cool but i’m not really into modifying the pages i read (execpt my blog ones =D )

    and thx for featuring my blog wink

    and Mj’s question, i suppose you just have to put the ad in black so on a black background, you don’t see them anymore

  17. See my profile on MyBlogLog.com! Yashvin Says:

    gr8 finding but a chance u havent taken my site as example lol

  18. See my profile on MyBlogLog.com! Kyushiro Says:

    xD a comment already? haha

    i had gone to sleep yeah, but the email triggered by your comment woke me up D (viva mobilemail!)

    anyway yups, i`ll send you the scripts (Only 2 are active in the screenshots) later today.

    as for the ads things, no way, that`s just a quick unpolished css trick. in fact the div containing the whole thing is transparent. i still need to eliminate it and pull the content up there, u`ll see that in the script D .

    Hey mag btw. do you know about vkp scripts?
    (SE patches…)

  19. See my profile on MyBlogLog.com! Mj Says:

    hey D thought i was the only person in mauritius to be bored enough to be online at this time! D

    anyway about this post,
    wow, cool!
    i am already using greasemonkey,
    and this is entering on my list ASAP! D

    Hey could u share some of your userstyles please? they look kinda cool in the screenshots! D I have one question though, about the caaoop thing, the ads, how did you remove them?

    ok, guess i am going to sleep me D and looking at the time you posted this i suggest you do so too! D
