Got annoyed with the chrome theme wiki having broken pics and not being able to edit it (I couldnt figure how), so started work on my own version.....
http://docs.google.com/View?id=dksd545_9fqhrt3dj
...theres still alot to do but thought people might still like to look at it as the pics show what the color values are doing nicely. Noticed alot of things arent working the way they use to, but the pics will show that.
Anywayz, Ill do more tomorrow, got any suggestions just say

Oh and to see the pics you might have to use FF as they weren't working for me in chrome (ohhh the irony), will prolly up them somewhere else later but Ive had enough of that tonight (dialup sux)

"Frame "theme_frame"
The frame of the chrome browser/the area that is behind the tabs. ∞ x 30" Why 30? Because if in fullscreen 30 is good, but when the browser is like half the page. The tabs kind of peel away from the browser and you get a gap, so that 30 looks ugly. And this is in Vista. And yeah frame color doesn't help. Here is a screenshot to help picture the problem.



Edit: When I open the images in a tab (right click) or just click on them they download. Any way to prevent this?

Thanks alot for your input ducktape.
I hadnt got around to doing the WxH yet, I know their wrong, allways have been Im prolly going to put in minium WxH as there isnt really set amounts you have to use, but Im going to list what I think is a minimum.
Ill also finish the Repeats and look at adding some more images (hue chart, saturation, lightness guides and maybe something showing how the ntp alignments work)....plus a couple of other things

Ive relinked all the images to point at the page their on and not try to link straight to the image, which really bugs me but atleast the page isnt tooooo bad. If I have to I may up them somewhere else, but I really wanted to keep everything on google docs so its easy for me to update them later when google fix some of the current errors with themeing.

You welcome! Glad I could help. Well ok, but I will check :P . The only one I am sure of is the toolbar one @ 120px of height.

Well, it's good now. On left clicking the image, it is opened in a new tab. But the right click open in a new tab, still downloads. This shouldn't be problem thou. And yeah don't switch from Docs.

Thanks to ValorSolo for this one. It shows how to choose the tint.

That guide is actually wrong
Hue is right, but the next two are wrong. Chrome doesnt even use contrast, the contrast image should actually be the Brightness image and it needs one for saturation. Check my doc have a look at the images to see what I mean.

Ive updated the doc...did the tint section, update the width/height using the values here (thanks for making that JK!)....

....and finished the Repeats bit

Thanks for the input again, I used ValorSolo's tuts for the height/width bits (they where right last time I checked, long time ago tho).
Hope ya like the new additions, I like the hue chart (Ive wised I had that a few times )

Oh, lol. http://code.google.com/chrome/extens...mes.html#tints Never bothered to look into that. Well thanks for fixing and making the guide. +1 for sure, if only we had rep. *cough* add rep *cough*

I see you have a "?" by the tab heights. So I did this.

My guide and valorsolo's


With bookmarks bar


With no bookmarks bar


So yeah it proves that the height of the tab's should be at least 26 px

PS: Sorry for the double post
