Topic: The 'tree' theme in GMail - activate it, if not already

Wow! Just wow!

I never knew about this theme in GMail which changes with the weather until just now. It's awesome.

To activate go to Settings-->Themes-->Tree (and then enter your country and city). (Translation, might not be exact)

Cue "gOLD" posts....GO!

I need pics! Probably couldn't see them anyway due to stupid work filter. At least QGL is unblocked! (Old school...new school has the word "game" and thus blocked)

I use Graffiti, but I'm curious about this 'changing with the weather' idea - does that mean when it's raining the background reflects that? Or are we talking seasons here?

Delivered. As you can see it's nice and sunny in Melb :-P

And sparrow, yes, if it's dark and raining, you have dark clouds and rain in your inbox.

Haha! Nice work. How'd you manage that? I tried to unblur and couldn't read anything.

Can you tell who I was talking about that with, because that would be interesting :-P

Also, tell me which post-processing method you used? I tried unsharp mask and flipped the image and tried to reverse blur it using same settings as I blurred it with.

Its the advertising at the top.

Google reads your emails and spams you with related s***.

+1 for being a bit too bright, but I'm a Ninja theme person myself.. The little Ninjas I can live without, but like the colour scheme it uses.

Nice one. Those ads don't even register with me - they are automatically filtered at my iris.

Interesting - it's spot-on about the SSL conversation ;-) I was discussing S/MIME to be precise, for encrypting/digitally signing emails.

I haven't used the web to check my mail for ages, I've got windows live mail set to check all my email accounts at once so I just conveniently click one icon and get all my emails.

The theme is cloudy for me, but I looked outside to see blue skies. I'm changing back to Shiny.

On the otherhand for Melb the BOM are saying 'clearing showers' at the same time as 'probability of rain: low' - maybe it's confused... :-P
