This worked great even two years after it was uploaded. Some of the buttons have changed on Chrome so you may have to look around a bit. Thanks for helping me figure out this problem.
HEY kid thumbs you solved my problem one way or other i was trying to save chrome themes and i found a way and just when i have a fresh copy of chrome with no extensions I CAN MAKE every theme AERO THANKS AGAIN KID
Thanks a lot! This works great for most versions of Windows 7. Unfortunately this doesn't work for Windows 7 Starter. Instead of applying the transparent part Google Chrome applies the blue part that is in Windows XP. Any help on how to fix this would be great. I really hate having themes without the transparency. Even the original theme doesn't have transparency--because I have Windows 7 Starter and that is just infuriating.
What if I wanted to change the theme? Do I have to do the whole process again? And, can I delete the folder where the theme or the folder "i" is located?
@tobagganski343 cant belive these morons updated such vedios & ppl like us watch it wen its already available in the crome app store!! thanx 4 helpin me out bro ur tuely gr8 :D
hey do u know how can I make the backgrounds to work 4 chrome, I think I changed over 5 times and no way of seeing a background. I only get the browser bar's color and thats it. No background T_T and when I open a new tab there's no background image in it it don't work HELP ME please
You do a really good job on all your videos. Sometimes it gets frustrating showing people how to do certain things and so that's when I just send them a link to YouTube videos from people like you! ^_^
Thanks for the video. Next time though, try to make the video a little smoother. I'm assuming that your video capture software was tracking the mouse, and you were all over the place. Made it hard to follow and annoying.
@MRROBBIEWATTS Google Chrome was recently updated to a universal drop down menu, its now under settings is that what your referring to? I don't know what you mean by "menu bar"
@JeremyLeroy96 - Thanx! - Having read reviews etc on Chrome.. it seems that they left out the MENU Toolbar that SHOULD be seen at the very top of the Left hand side of your screen, Anyway, I deleted Chrome and used A Mozzila Black theme instead that allows the said MENU toolbar to be seen, and Now the Jabago browser fits neatly together with the Mozzila Black theme, all as one so to speak!
Am i being too fussy here?? - nahhh...I love my Computer! ; )
@JeremyLeroy96 He's talking about Jabago Blackify Google Search (& other pages to make them more readable). It's cool, but doesn't work on Chrome. Only IE, Safari, Firefox & Opera have it available to add in the menu bar. Personally I hate menu bars of all types. Even Google's! Takes up space & is usually loaded w/ malware. The best part of Chrome is it operates in a sandbox for SECURITY! So that's the only thing that makes these bogus add on menu bars possible, installed in Programs Folder!
@cjalmighty duh, it's impossible. The transparent window is a System resource. Windows XP doesn't have this resource in its window manager code (or core code), so it is impossible. You would literally have to recode Windows XP into Windows Vista or 7. Dude, just buy Windows 7.
Cool, thanks for posting this video, I was hunting around for a transparent theme and this adds a neat, unique element to the themes that are available.
very cool man, exactly what I was looking for!!!! thanx a lot! do you know if it´s possible to make the backgroung transparent when opening a new tap? anyway, thanx again!
@Colteee It made the back/forward buttons transparent. The title bar goes good with some themes but not for a few. I was not a fan of the default blue buttons.
Kudos, nice vid. I have google chrome portable, but the location is similar. Instead, the data folder (Data/profile/Default/Extensions) is in the folder with the program. Decided to post this in case someone wanted to know.
I love you man that is awesome finally a tut tht works :) from the start when I heard you going uuum eerrr I thought oh no, but read the comments and decided to watch and it actually worked :D 5* nice one :P been looking for this for ages :D
stupid fucking kid... this shit doesnt make ur chrome theme transparent at all. all u did was take off the theme completely from chrome, therefore it uses win7 aero theme. ur a fucking joke.
2. If it changed the theme back to blue then you might of messed up when you edited the .json file
3. If it worked and you failed to understand that this video was about getting the transparent border back, your a moron. But since your pissed I guess you could google "google chrome transparent theme" if your still horny you can try firefox, its themes are much more customizable then chrome themes.
@lroman2010 dude, don't bitch at him. it works, it solved my problem and i am happy. the point of it is to make all of the buttons black and grey instead of the irritating blue.
@LucidityProductions i know how you feel, i needed to change one of the icons (because it was ugly) and i looked through them all from the top just to find out it was the one at the bottom :'P
Okay apparently i said it only works on vista. I had somebody message me who had it for XP and i meant that you had to have transparency before you applied the theme before you get it when you do this otherwise it will just turn blue.
jermey i have a problem. i try that and i have vista but what appears is a grass theme and a blue theme together. help me im elvinxelvin. im gonna make a video some day or today.
5 STARS BRO !!!! Your a legend mate, i've copied everything you've said word for word & it's worked perfectly !!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH !!!!!!!!! Cheers Jeremy, i've learned something new today :)
Super glitchy when opening/closing a new tab, which is all the time for me. Will wait for update from chrome.
