Gmail themes!

Has anyone else seen this? Similar to how you can select things for your personalized iGoogle page, you can now set a theme for your gmail.

I, of course, picked the darling fox, since he’s on my iGoogle page. As near as I can tell, the scene for gmail is his backyard, behind his pagoda. I’ve seen him playing the flute to some ducks, having a tea party with a teddy bear, and cutting flowers.

So cute!

I have the Japanese fox also. I like how the scene changes according to the time of day. At night he is seen eating dinner and practicing calligraphy at a table in his house. If you check your e-mail in the middle of the night, the fox is sleeping, and a group of ghostly foxes is playing Go (I think) at the outdoor table.

I have a tree. For some reason though, the tree is sunny at night and cloudy during the day… even though I have it set to my area code.

But i like when its stormy the tree gets rain!

Ha, thanks I never would’ve know otherwise. I’m using the ninja now, it’s the same ninja you get by entering the Konami Code on Google Reader.

(The Konami Code is: up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A)

Thanks for the heads up. I just changed mine to the Tea House. I also found some cute emoticons.

Does anyone know if you can save gmail to a hard drive? I asked in the last gmail thread but no one seemed to know there.
