Things that are Awesome: GMail Tree Theme
The tree theme is based on the weather, so most days it’s pretty mellow and unobtrusive, but every once in a while I log in and my inbox is being blasted by lightning. Amusingly enough, there was a morning last December where I woke up to find snow drifts on my inbox. I naturally thought this must be an exaggeration (this is East Texas), but upon looking out the window I found out the Google was right and I was wrong. Never should have doubted.
(Yes, you photographically minded people, there is a huge seam through the middle of my screenshot. I wanted to show the whole theme, but couldn’t get it all in a single screenshot, so I took 2 and clumsily Gimp’d them together.)
EDIT: After posting this, I was really tickled to see the ship from my background clearly visible behind the screenshot. How often do you get see a ship in an inbox during a thunderstorm?
