If you'd like to know what a custom CSS scrollbar looks like in practice, in 2015, log in to your Google Analytics account (I noticed you use it on your website) with Chrome. Not only do people want to change the scroll bar, but probably half the internet-using population sees custom scroll bars daily, since Google uses them heavily (Gmail, Docs, etc as well).

Google's screwing with scrollbars, especially, making them so damned tiny I cannot use them, is among the reasons I looked up how to style scrollbars -- so I could set my own local default style in a user stylesheet and override idiot Web designers (or their idiot clients) who think they know better than I do what I want.

What I've ended up with is actually fairly close to the Mac OS X scrollbar, though I kind of got there by accident.

And no, in general, I wouldn't impose this on other people on a site I built. Leave stock UI interfaces alone.
