  • brushCan I change the background?

    Like the tab and toolbar ... but, want to change the background?    It's so quick and easy to do.

    Depending on whether or not you are making themes just for yourself, or for everyone.    Quality is key, I say.    So, I do recommend that you check out this up to date list of the best royalty free image sites that you can start using right now.

    You can also browse for more wallpapers right here.    Many are available in true 4K or full HD and if you really can't find anything that you like.    You might want to search the internet.

  • bookmark_borderHow do themes affect my browser?
    In short.   Themes only change the appearance of your browser not it's functionality.   Massively over-large or un-optimized images may sometimes be an issue at start-up if you are on a slow internet connection in my own experience.
  • add_to_queueAbout  4K
    As you might know or not; For years I have been trying to accommodate people on bigger monitors too, So ... I have quite a few 4K themes in the web store.

    However



    Recently I have noticed that all the 4K themes seem to be reporting an error message when I try to install them in the store, which is so weird because I trail and test each one that I publish to see if everything is working properly.

    This is a new issue ... I can't really say much more about it, because it's a mystery to me too ... but I can quickly tell you that;

    When I load the un-packed theme up it works fine ... but for some reason, it does not do the same when you install it through the web store.

    So



    After testing and testing and testing; this is my own conclusion (if I am still allowed to think for myself) ...

    4K themes are not working when you download them in the web store, even though they pass review, somehow.

    Everything up until 1920x1080 px does just fine ... but anything bigger and Houston we have a problem.

    There are many possible solutions



    I may have to switch to a more "pattern" style theme design for all you 4K fans, and if you don't like that then you are gonna have to download the source files and upload the theme manually ... which can seem scary if you don't know how, but I promise it's so easy ... so ... future 4k themes will all be "open source" and publically available to download and alter as you like.

    The other option you have is to make use of the cool "customize" feature Google Chrome has, with it you can customize your browser however you like. No Code, No Fuss, No Drama,. Just pick a cool background and color it up yourself. I am planning to do a tutorial on this, but I am still working on a few other things first, should you want to design your own theme from scratch.

    I have added a whole bunch of the coolest backgrounds on chromethemer, you can browse them and see if there is anything you like or maybe something sparks up your inspiration.

    We are at a crossroad for now. Much like Tom Hanks at the end of Cast Away.

    On the flip side



    1920 x 1080 is still considered to be HD ... so I try to create these themes to suit most people and that's how it is.

    If you are in doubt, just add any theme you like, see if it fits and if it doesn't click "undo" and it's like it never happened.

    I am going to work on some new 4K designs soon, I don't know how yet, but please bear with me and I'll get it worked out.

    In the meantime feel free to check out what I got done so far.

  • paletteHow do I create my own theme?

    If you're just getting started or if you are an experienced theme designer,   I do suggest using ThemeBeta's free online theme creation tool.   It's easy and simple to use and you can make a pretty good theme in just a few minutes.

  • infoWhat is happening to this site?
    Well ... A lot.

    Whether it's good or bad, I don't know. I can't really code, but I am great at making themes. So, atleast that's something.

    I have added some games and a few extensions too, if you want to try them out.

    The backgrounds section is a mess, I know. Maybe, I uploaded to many wallpapers and then I suppose,.. I went over budget with my hosting, I geuss.

    I lost a few hundred phone backgrounds there.

    Anyway ...

    Please bear with me while I get everything up and working again. I don't ever back stuff up and well ... this is what happens apparently.
