Get Back the Old Gmail Interface Permanently!

You might have been wondering around making Gmail Old look permanent. If so, this post will tell you how to do that in no time!
In a previous article, we covered how to switch back to the Old Gmail Interface Temporarily. But as of now, Google has started freezing the new look (which is highly criticized), you basically have no other choice than reading your mails on this new interface. But I have a way which can help you to get back the glorious old look of Gmail permanently!
The method I’m going to share here is for the users who have a browser support of Stylish (Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, in general). Stylish is a browser extension which lets you pick custom skins (UserStyles) for your favorite websites.
 

Switch back to Gmail Old Inteface permanently

I have written a UserStyle which will let you see your Gmail in it’s previous look. Below mentioned is the step-by-step method to do so:

1. Install Stylish extension on your Web Browser.
   • Stylish for Chrome
   • Stylish for Firefox
   You should also search web to get Stylish for your Safari browser.
   
2. After installing stylish on your browser, you’re required to do only a one-clickinstall of my UserStyle The Return of Old Gmail.
   
3. Now, go to your Gmail account. What are you seeing? There must be the return of Old Gmail, you are back to your favorite Gmail old Interface. Am I right?

Below screenshot explains how your Gmail look before and after installing the UserStyle:

The Return of Old Gmail UserStyle features

The UserStyle does the following thing for you:

• Changes new Gmail styles to the older ones (not all)
• Hides the annoying “About the new look” link
• Reverts back the Top Navigation to the classic one (in Gmail only)
• Implements Classic Gray-Blue Gmail theme
• Makes Gmail of Elastic height instead of fixed height
• Removes the Toggle between Chat and Invite block (I’m working to show both one after the other, only one block will be showed which you’ve toggled on the new look)

This UserStyle performs best on Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. However, some default styles are unchangeable on Google Chrome which strictly implements some inbuilt parameters for Gmail.
I’m still working on the limited height of chat sidebar and mail-list in Gmail I’ve fixed the limited height of mail-list but not of Chat sidebar since it looks really odd with a full Chat list in sidebar. Hope, you liked the post, do share with your friends annoyed by new Gmail. If you’re having problems with the UserStyle, drop in a comment, I’ll try to sort them out.
