Engadget - Minus Garbage Plus Width (Dec 2012)

Added by voltaek@userstyles, Created: May 30, 2010, Updated: Dec 04, 2012

Description:

***************************************

January 2016 - It looks like Engadget has had a full redesign and this no longer works. As I don't really read Engadget anymore, I will not be updating this style.

***************************************

This is a cleanup of Engadget.com

Keep in mind that since their new design is 'fluid', their site will normally resize as the browser window does. This style was designed for use on a desktop or laptop screen that's at least 1000px wide, with the browser maximized. This shouldn't be an issue, even for those on netbooks.

See the "More Info" section for the list of changes this style makes to the site and updates to the style.

I also wrote a similar userstyle for Anandtech.com:

Let me know if you find anything I missed, or if you have any suggestions.

UPDATES:
12/05/12- COMPLETE RE-WRITE - Due to Engadget's redesign, I threw everything out and started over. Let me know if you see any errors, I don't browse the site as much as I used to.
=========
12/24/11- Cleanup of minor changes to the site, hid 'tip us' tab, fixed hubs stuff, centered new GDGT boxes, hid some ad boxes, stretch gallery and topics page titles
7/23/11- Tweaked blogroll image centering.
6/10/11- Inspected site for any changes, minor changes
3/22/11- Ad removal (flash sprint ad), ctia banner removal, some spacing fixes, OPTION to hide Tweet button added (in the code, not using Stylish's option thing since it kills updating the style), hid 'alt.engadget' header (again), podcast page header centering
1/9/11- Video centering for more vids
11/4/10- Killed "AOL Original" logo, again.
10/22/10- Now that disqus commenting is on all subdomains, I could finally clear out the old code and make the one line of code change needed to support the new system. Removed commenting stats numbers' size tweak since it seems they fixed their error.
9/15/10- Fixed centering of daily recap graph (again) should be pretty resilient now to any minor changes they make to its coding. Centered liveblog images.
9/13/10- Made commenting stats numbers (says "5 comments 20 likes received" by commenting box) normal size (Engadget's error)
8/31/10- Centered a few scattered article images and made sure all article images will be centered now
8/27/10- Centered live stream of Engadget Show
8/22/10- Stretched search box to use up blank space. Removed 'blog comments powered by disqus' link while loading comments.
8/19/10- Update for Engadget Classic's new DISQUS commenting system. Since old system is still on Alt, HD, and Mobile, those stay properly stretched like they already were
