Gmail Updates Its Look, Adds Themes

[axxo]

Google's beloved web-based email client has always been ripe for third-party design customization (we've always been partial to the Gmail Redesigned skin in Better Gmail, for example), but now Gmail is officially riding the interface customization train by offering 30-some new themes to spice up your inbox. Keep reading for a screenshot tour of the cool new offerings.

One of my gmail account has been already upgraded with the new themes while other(s) aren't.

the theme feature is a nice addition, but can someone tell me how to change the font color?
with some bluish themes, all the links become invisible

I don't think you can change the font colours without using 3rd party extensions.
And which theme are you talkng about, cause I think google might have surely paid attention to all these things before putting the theme up for use.

 

[Chintu08]

theme: mountains
some stuffs in left panel & the "Show search options & Create a filter" become kinda unnoticeable.
no need to bother, i got bored with that theme, now using "Pebbles".8)

Im sure Google will not overlook that.
Im using the Ninja theme.
But still waiting for my main account to get themes.

 

[Faun]

sh!tty themes, made it like orkut :/

 

[abhi.eternal]

my account got updated too... there are very few good themes though... may be they will add more later.

 

[axxo]

Themes have become a standard feature now no matter how old the account is...all accounts have been upgraded including the new ones if anyone happens to create an account.
