Score: 3.3/10 (Innovation: 2, Technical: 2, Documentation: 6, Utility: 3)

A small userstyle that restores the classic red banner and logo on ArXiv, which was changed to blue in a 2026 redesign. It provides simple CSS/JS install options for Stylus and Tampermonkey, but is essentially a cosmetic tweak with minimal technical complexity.
