How to change the chrome theme in PC 2019

Google’s app design is fairly plain, but it doesn’t have to stay that way. One way to spice it up is by changing the Google search background (and adjacent components) with a new theme. You’ll need to be running the Google Chrome browser. It won’t work with Microsoft Edge or Firefox. Then again, Chrome is still the best browser you can download anyway, so we’d recommend it even if you weren’t installing a new theme. STEP 1: HEAD TO YOUR APPEARANCE SETTINGS Open up Chrome and look in the upper right corner of your browser window for three dots. Click them to open up the the primary Chrome drop-down menu. Toward the bottom of the drop-down, you will see an option to go to “Settings.” Select this, and you’re on your way. In a new browser tab for all your Chrome settings, you’ll see that it’s divided into various sections. Take a look at the section called Appearance. This is where you can control what your Google window looks like. The first option in this setting should be Themes. Changing your theme will automatically change your Google background to match, so this is the option you want to select. If you don’t have a current theme, it should say Open Chrome Web Store. Select it. STEP 2: PICK YOUR THEME Chrome should then take you directly to the Chrome themes section. There you can browse the many available themes for your Google experience divided by broad content type. The primary image that you see is typically the image that will appear as your Google background, so you can use that as a guide for which one to pick. If you need some help, these are our favorite themes. Each section shows only the top-rated images for that content type, but you can take a closer look by choosing Select All if you find a section you like. Google Theme Select Once you select a theme, make sure to check out its preview images and reviews. Note that most themes extend their colors and patterns throughout the browser window and browser tabs, so take a look at the full appearance. Checking the Related tab will show you more themes by that particular developer. If you find something that you like, just click on the Add to Chrome button in the top right corner. STEP 3: ADD IT TO CHROME Uploaded Google Theme The theme should be automatically added and enabled. You can watch your browser tabs change along with the theme, and if you head to a new Google search page or open a new tab, you should be able to see the primary image. A notification will pop up at the top of the window to let you know that the theme has been enabled. This notification also includes an Undo button for reversing the theme if you want to make a quick change. See if you like the overall theme — sometimes you may like the image, but not like what the theme does your tabs or other colors that it adds throughout the browser. If that’s the case, hit the undo button on the notification, or head back to Appearances in the Settings menu and revert to the default theme there. You can choose and disable as many themes as you want as you look for the right one! Using a custom image Maybe the themes aren’t cutting it for you this time, and you would rather have a customized background of some family photos or an amazing nature scene you shot. You can do that too, but it will take an extra extension. Head over to the Chrome Web Store and download the Background Image extension and add it to your Chrome browser. Now you have the ability to choose a downloaded image to put up as your Google background. This image will not affect your tabs or other browser components, and it’s a great way to personalize the background with a beloved photo if you can’t find a theme you like. In addition, you can also swap out the photo for your blank new tab page in Google Chrome, which can add some more personality to the Chrome browsing experience. how to change your google background image2 This is a feature only available in the newest version of the Chrome browser, so if you’re running an older build you may need to upgrade. There are other benefits too, like several updated official themes. All you need to do is click the Settings gear at the bottom right corner of the screen. From there, you’ll have the option of either uploading your own image or one of Google’s stock photos. #googlechrome #changechrometheme #setyourimageonchrome
