Better Scrollbar
Description from store

This plugin replaces the standard scrollbar with a more modern, skinnier, and less interfering one. This is modeled after the scrollbars used by Google in many of their services.

Explanation of "all data on all websites":
For the extension to apply a scrollbar to any site, it must have the ability to modify the css for the current page. This means that "all websites" are injected with the appropriate styles.

Release 0.1.8 9/25/13:
Named changed back to "Better Scrollbar."

Release 0.1.7 9/22/13:
Redesigned slightly, renamed to "Minimal Scrollbar." New icons, slightly more visible.

Release 0.1.6 1/31/13:
Fixed issues with black background on some websites. Colors darkened slightly for users with difficulty seeing the scrollbar on their monitors.

Release 0.1.4, 7/25/12:
Scrollbars now look the same across horizontal and vertical pages.

I like this scroll bar, but it now shows up on youtube videos...since I watch a lot of those i've decided to disable the extension. Please fix that little issue and it'll be much better!

Don't know how exactly this changes the default scrollbar. It simply smaller but is still white on white.

Make it auto-hide. Show up when: - hover over it - or when scrolling with mouse wheel. Otherwise it's almost pointless. Sorry. +1 star for head-start ;)

Есть нативная альтернатива в экспериментальных функциях chrome! Наложение полос прокрутки chrome://flags/#overlay-scrollbars

Nothing special here. I looks and acts the same as the original.

Wonderful addon, does exactly everything the description suggests. However, I(and many) would like to see the two "up" and "down" arrows which are missing and an option to enable the scroll bar to stretch to a bigger size when hovered over.

This is not a better scroll bar. It's just a smaller scroll bar. The color still makes it almost invisible.

Consider changing the style (or give to option) to the one found right here where I write this review. It has rounded edges. Hovering gives a nice and simple 3d effect.

Way better than the default scrollbars, at least on linux. I also tried the Thin Scroll Bar extension but it's unusuable for me since they're too thin. Nice extension here--looks good and usable.
