I love the new themes – it’s nice to finally be able to customize the appearance of my email window. Now, if they would just improve the appearance of iGoogle … oh well, beggars can’t be choosers, right?

As for Facebook, I’m one of those people who resisted the ‘new’ layout until they finally forced everyone to switch over … and, I’ll admit, after some time getting used to it, it does seem like an improvement.

Guess we all resist/welcome change to varying degrees …

all the options are great and I think it keeps gmail fresh and ahead of anything else out there. it’d be cool if they open it up and let the public create themes.

I got it this morning and I like having themes. But like Darren asks, it would be best if we could make our own themes or atleast customize them. It’s a great part of our individuality. But what they have offered us is cool in itself.

@ Tyler – I was waiting for someone to say they’re going to use terminal! Either you… or Duane… I just can’t do black background with lighter text – hurts my eyes.

I have my gmail set to Terminal, my geekiness shines with it! but I agree with Darren, I want my domain email accounts to have the themes too!

As for Facebook, I like the changes, just took about a few days for me to figure it out.

I think it looks great, too bad I don’t have a gmail account. I’d be all over the natural river rock theme.

As for facebook, I didn’t like it when it was about to happen, but I didn’t fight it either, and got over the changes pretty quickly.

At first I thought it was going in order of when the account was made, because my primary account had it and I’ve had that since the “Invite me to gmail PLEASE” days. But then my newer anothersamchan account has it too so that shot my theory out the door.

They’re rolling it out over the next few days.

Weirdly, while mine turned blue as well, there’s no message in Gmail, and there is no option for “themes” anywhere in my settings, either. So I guess it’s kinda stuck this way for some of us for the moment?
