What's your thinking behind how this works? What makes the 'after' sites more beautiful?

The increased padding on the Chromium site is great, but to me the HN 'after' looks quite a bit uglier than the 'before'.

Shouldn't this be called "Bootstrap Me"? The beautifying is simply just inserting bootstap.css into the current tab. Cool idea, don't think it needs jQuery though and popup.css can be stripped down massively.

    Yeah, it probably should be "Bootstrap me", but I did modified bootstrap.css to fit into this context. Also you are right with jQuery and popup.css.

    Thanks

    Cheers

I don't think they became better.
