4. Click “Upload an Image” and select a picture on your computer. It should appear in the preview pane on the right.

5. Use the controls under the preview pane to configure the picture. You can zoom in and out, make the picture repeat, and more.

6. In the numbered list, click “Generate colors.” This will edit the toolbars and menus in the theme to match what you’ve uploaded.

7. If you want to edit those colors, click on either “Images” or “Colors” at the top of the list. These will open menus where you can edit each individual part of your theme, right down to the color of the text on your tabs. Whatever you’re changing the color of will be highlighted with bright red as you’re changing it.

8. When you’re satisfied, click “Pack and Install.” This will download a file containing your edited theme.

9. Google Chrome may be suspicious of the theme file, and ask if you want to keep it. Click “Keep.”

10. Navigate to the folder on your computer where the theme downloaded to. You can do this easily by right-clicking the file in Chrome’s download bar and clicking “Show in Finder” or “Show in folder.”

15. A moment later, the colors on your menu bars should change to whatever you set them to.

Your custom theme is now installed.
