Return google search to smaller sized boxes

Posted on By Adrien Tibi

This week, Google updated their homepage to incorporate a large style search box and button. However, this change does not sit well with every user.

We decided to knock up a little CSS override script that will return Google to its former glory.

/* Google override */
 .lst { font-size:12px !important; }
.lsb { font-size:12px !important; height: 20px !important; margin: 2px 2px 0px 5px !important; }
.gac_d {font-size: 10px !important; }
.gac_m { font-size:14px !important; }

Save this as custom.css and load into your favourite browser as a custom stylesheet.

In Safari, this is located under Safari->Preferences->Advanced->Stylesheet.

For Mozilla Firefox users, you can either follow this guide, or install the user stylesheet extension

UPDATE:
Thanks to Lance for pointing out that firefox users can also use this greasemonkey script
