This style is based off of Nicer New Gmail but it's really more of a slash and burn approach.
NO COLORS except tiny bit of red and yellow and some blue I can't get rid of.
I know just enough CSS to be dangerous and not enough to really make things work correctly. Some things it
chokes on:
- tabs! I don't use them so who cares what they look like
- hangout/chat tab - I disabled this as soon as they added it, maybe it's blue, I don't know
