New Gmail Look

American Zombie · Dec 11, 2011

What does everyone think of the new Gmail?

At first I did not like it but after playing around with it for a while I am starting to like it.

But, at this point I still like the old look a bit better.

I think some cookie tricks exist to get the new look quicker if you want [simply clearing Google cookies might do it]. To check out it you can see all about it here: https://mail.google.com/mail/help/newlook.html

I liked the new look, then couldn't find the button to view older inbox and reverted back

To revert back go to the gear in the top right, "revert to the old look".

no, I meant I couldn't find the button to view old emails, i'm sure it's there but I didn't want to look for it so I reverted to the old look

What do you mean old mail?

What you may need to do is change view from compact to either cozy or comfortable which can be doen with the button on the right.

At first all my mailboxes were not visible until I changed view from compact. As you can see in the attached they are all there now.

If by old mail you mean "all mail" ... you can make it non-hidden by going to the "more" section on the bottom of your label section and choosing "manage labels". Or if you just want to access it without it being in the list all the time you can also get to it that way as well.

I took the beta look awhile back so I guess I got used to it before it was the "new look" Works well enough I just don't like the fact that i have to click on google to get a list of the other services to navigate to now.
