Don't like the new, gray Google Chrome theme? Switch it back to Classic Blue
Not everyone appreciates when a favorite application switches to a new default theme. Take Google Chrome, for example, which recently switched from blue to gray. The change is pretty subtle, but Chrome enthusiasts are the kinds of users who like their desktop to look just so -- and when they like something, they'd rather it not change.
Do you want the original blue theme back? That's not a problem. Head over to the Google Chrome Extensions Gallery and download Classic Blue. If you find yourself wishing the theme change had never happened, Classic Blue will restore the flow of your Google Chrome chi to its previously harmonious state.

All my chrome's have the nice wooden desktop theme, from Google.
(especially now that it syncs the theme, too!!)
So, no diff to me.
..Surprised so many don't already have a theme installed..

The problem is that pretty much every theme in the theme gallery disables the window transparency, which many consider a feature. As far as I can tell, the only theme which retains transparency (besides the default) is the classic theme mentioned in the article.

That's why you should use Dark As Hell (AERO) which has a nice black look and transparency enabled.

This post is really misinforming people, since it refers to the dev builds only.
