Not even two days have passed and developers are already posting their tips and tricks for the browser on the internet. The most popular of them all is the one about changing themes of the Google Chrome.

The Free Chrome Themes website offers just four themes for now, but additions will made in the future. According to some sources, the site is an official part of the Google Chrome campaign. Even though this prospect is exciting, it is a bit tedious for a typical net user.

To start, the default.dll file has to be replaced with the new theme file. Here is how you do it:

Vista Users: 

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\0.2.149.27\Themes\

XP Users:

C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\0.2.149.27\Themes\

The C has to be replaced with the letter of your drive in which Windows is installed. UserName is the user name with which chrome was installed and the numbers you see is the current version of Google chrome.

Note: As usual, I advise you to backup your default.dll file in case if anything goes wrong. Nothing more. Enjoy!
