"Homer-ize" Safari
Today, I discovered this amusing little Safari mod over at Resexcellence. Steffie Lucchesi has created a downloadable "Safari Homer-ization" Makeover Kit. Basically, it replaces Safari's default error icon and Localizable.strings file to give you the result above: Poor Homer, foiled again. This time by a nonexistent website. Installation instructions are included for Mac OS 10.3 and 10.4, and backup files are also supplied for Mac OS 10.3.So, TUAWers, how have you modded Safari?

i added mouse gestures to Safari via "Cocoa Gestures". It was the one thing that i absolutely loved with Opera and Firefox that i wished was in Safari, and now it is.
mouse gestures rock.

I rid Safari of it's nasty metal casing, it's now singing and dancing in 'unified' glory :p

I've been looking for something like this to make my Safari experience pop a little more. I'm thinking it'd be nice to be able to have a random error page so that it's not always Homer Simpson but could be Bubblebeeguy "Aiaiai! No es bueno!" or Comicbookguy "Worst. Error. Ever." or other non-simpson characters.
cool beans

No modding really.
I use Inquisitor, WebDevAdditions, SafariSource and SafariBlock.
I replaced PithHelmet with SafariBlock a while back. It behaves like Firefox's AdBlock handles Flash very well.

I didn't mod my Safari. I just moved to Camino. Works great, looks great. What more do I want?
