Gmail can be skinned with colors and themes!



Most of us might have been observed that Gmail has introduced themes to get a new look to Gmail. I think most of them are now bored of Gmail with same old look (sky blue color).

You can now switch to one of the 30 themes available through the Themes settings.

I was surprised to see this yesterday evening when i opened my mail box.

You can change your Gmail themes through your Settings page:

  • Just look on the top right corner. you will see Themes link.
  • Select one of the themes to change the look of your Gmail

Choose any one of the above!

Choose any one of the above!

    The themes are awesome. Google gave a surprise to all of them this morning. Apart from the themes for Gmail it also launched SearchWiki. Check out my post below on how it works!

    This is quite nice. I like the ’shiny’ theme. Thinking about GMail, I wonder if these guys will ever get out of ‘beta’. It must be years now already.

    Though the Gmail themes are nice ,I prefer my default Gmail theme ,I have to do nothing with these themes as I have slow net connection that even worse the case of loading of Gmail,this is my personal opinion only.

  5. I love the pinky theme . I think Yahoo will do ’something’ to make their service more better. Love them both.

    GMAIl is now much heavier. Taking time to load because of heavy images in themes.

    @Venkat, It is upto individuals on what they like or not

    @busby seo test, I love the decolam theme. last one on the 2nd row.

    @Chetan, I don’t think so, it is still faster than yahoo or other mail services.

    Some of the themes and links color is irritating. I don’t like a few themes and stick to the default version.

    It seems interesting, but I always check my gmail with ms outlook so the themes don’t matter

  18. Nihar says:

    @Deca, hmm. i have never used outlook to check gmail. Need to try it.

  19. I like it. I change the theme every week to get a different feel. Sort of like changing up furniture in the house. You know, you just get tired of the same ‘ol thing all the time. Kudos google…
