Spruce Up Google Calendar with Gcal Redesigned (Firefox)

Gcal Redesigned is a CSS stylesheet that adds colors, shading, and other visual tweaks to Google Calendar.

Sound familiar? Gcal Redesigned comes from the same folks who brought you Gmail Redesigned, the Gmail "skin" that gives everyone's favorite Web-mail app an extreme makeover.

Like that cool style, Gcal Redesigned requires Firefox 3 and the Stylish extension. After installing the latter and restarting Firefox, head to the Gcal Redesigned site and click View Source. Don't be alarmed to see a rather stark-looking page of text: Just follow the instructions, which essentially boil down to clicking the Stylish icon in the bottom-right corner of Firefox and then clicking Add Style.

Nice tip/tuck! If you're a Firefox-running Google Calendar user, get ready for some much-needed pizzazz. (Now we just need versions for Google Reader and Google Docs!) Gcal Redesigned is free, as is the required Stylish extension. [via Lifehacker]
