Restore the soothing green color of Slashdot.org.

Many of us love Slashdot.org and its soothing green color. Tragically, a recent redesign has left the amount of green at crisis levels. Fear not, geeks: Soothing Green Light, a free Safari extension, restores the green color to a degree beyond what we’ve ever seen! The Slashdot homepage and story pages are stylishly recolored to give you more of your favorite green.

Enjoy Slashdot in all its green glory without sacrificing legibility or function.
