Nice Mac-like theme for Google Reader
I'm a real fan of Google Reader. It's quick, easy and accessable from my browser, so I don't have to keep a second app open just to check my feeds. There is one thing it lacks, however, and that's a Mac-like appearance.That's why I like this theme by Hicksdesign. It will work with Firefox, Camino, Safari, Opera and Omniweb and looks great. The "add a subscription" window even has a nice, smoky transparency.
Please note, as the author does, that Google could change the code of Reader at any time, causing you trouble if you're using this theme. With that in mind, try it out! It looks really good. While you're at it, why not give Bloglines a Mac Makeover, too?
Thanks, jopari!

The link is forbidden. Is there somewhere else we can download?

I'm at a loss for how to "just copy and paste the css into the ‘create styles for this page’ window."
I have no idea what window is being referred to.
"Firefox
Once you have the Stylish extension installed, just copy and paste the css into the ‘create styles for this page’ window."

I installed that earlier today and love it. It not only makes the reader look more Mac-like, but it gives you a bigger reading pane.
