Today I got a bit fed up with some of the bizarre UX choices that Google made with their Google+, so I decided to take matters into my own hands. Thus, I present to you:
Goop!
Features:
- Most pages now center aligned
- Most pages are now wider (and the blank space to the right of all pages is gone)
- Profile pages are now shuffled around a bit for increased visibility
- Images and videos now are centered around a black background (as they used to be)
Update 2012.06.20:
- Fix for changes resulting from Google’s addition of share bar to profile page
- Some cleanup and re-organization
Update 2012.06.25:
- Google pulled a total dick move and renamed all of the CSS elements I used. Thus, Goop! no longer works. I’m sorry, but I will not be updating it…

Mostly. Those images are my versions with the streams extended and a bunch of other stuff, but it’s mostly the same.
It’s pretty damn good, I’d say.
