If you are bored of the present old looking gmail user interface , you can change the theme by doing the following simple things. Gmail User Interface (UI) hasn’t been changed ever since 2004?

Even though Google has been constantly rolling out new features for its services, it has never bothered to update the UI for many of its services.

For example, take a look at how Gmail looks in its present state.

Gmail is high on features compared to the other email services out there, but it seriously lacks on the UI front. Google may have its own reasons for not rolling out a new look, but that doesn’t stop us from customizing it our own way, does it?Here’s how a customized Gmail looks.

There are other kinds of looks available too, but we’re only focussing on the one by Globex Designs. Let’s take a look.Here’s what you need:1. FireFox 2+ (FireFox 3.0+ is highly recommended)First, visit the following URL and download and install the ‘Stylish’ extension for FireFox.

To rename the start button, you will need a hex editor.
My preference is UltraEdit

Copy the \windows\explore.exe 

file to a new name (e.g. explorer_1.exe)
With the hex editor, open that 

file and go to offset 412b6
You will see the word start with 

blanks between each letter
Edit it be any 5 characters or less
Save the file
Boot to DOS
Copy the existing c:\windows\explorer.exe

 to explorer.org
Copy explorer_1.exe to explorer.exe
You will also need to replace the explorer.exe 

in the 

c:\windows\system32\dllcache file as well with the new one.
Note: If the partition is NTFS and you can't 

access the files from DOS:

Start Regedit
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft 

\ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon.

Change the value of Shell from Explorer.exe 

to explorer_1.exe
