Chromey theme for Gnome Metacity
I have made a simple theme that transforms your Gnome windows in Linux to match the standard Google Chrome theme.
It is quite limited and currently only supports the default size (the buttons are not scalable), standard button layout, and default colour scheme of Chrome, but you are welcome to modify it to be flexible. If you do improve it, please contact me and I’ll update the version available here.
Installation
- Download the Chromey.tar.gz file from gnome-look.org.
- Select System > Preferences > Appearance from the Gnome Menu.
- Select the Install button and choose the Chromey.tar.gz file.
- The Chromey theme will install. Select it and click the Close button.
Includes
- Minimise, Maximise, Close, and Close Toolbar buttons to match Google Chrome.
- Blue Chrome colour scheme.
- Window border theme to match Google Chrome.

New website
I’ve switched my website over to WordPress. It makes things a lot easier to maintain than a completely customised website, and it looks pretty decent.
I recommend WordPress for any small business website. It provides a powerful and easy to use content management back-end, and professional-looking front-ends. If you want an even more unique look to your website, there are plenty of templates out there for sale.
