class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image.png" alt="free android themes" />

One of the things I like best about Android is how customizable it is. The Market is full of themes you can apply to different launchers, and if your Android device is href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/root-android-phone-superoneclick-2/">rooted, you can even apply themes to the system as a whole, changing the appearance of the notification bar, buttons, and more. But it can often be annoying to sift through the myriad themes just to find the few good ones. That’s where this post, and href="https://market.android.com/details?id=com.n3xgenapps.theme.manager">N3xGen Theme Manager, comes in.

N3xGen Theme Manager is a free app that provides an easy, comfortable way to browse and filter lots of themes. Let’s look at how it works, and also at a few of the better free Android themes out there.

The App

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image1.png" alt="free android themes" width="300" height="500"/>

The app bills itself as a “theme market’, and accordingly, it’s styled to look very similar to the new Market app. At the main screen, you can see the most recent themes, each with its price clearly marked (so you don’t have to waste time on paid themes if you just want the free ones). Along the bottom is a toolbar that lets you filter the view to see only ADW themes, themes for LauncherPro, Android system themes, and Go! Launcher themes.

System Themes

Let’s focus on the System Themes category, which contains themes for the T-Mobile Theme Chooser. While you won’t find Theme Chooser on the Market, it is a part of href="http://www.cyanogenmod.com/features/themes-support">CyanogenMod, a popular alternative ROM supporting many devices. While filtering by system themes, you can swipe left to reveal other useful filters and zoom in on just the themes you want to see:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image2.png" alt="android themes" width="300" height="500"/>

Above you can see what the screen looks like mid-swipe, when switching between “All Themes” to Categories. You can also filter by developer, and by free or paid themes.

Some Awesome Themes

Now that we’ve seen how the app works, let’s look at some of the beautiful themes you can discover with it. Here’s what a single-theme view looks like: /> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image3.png" alt="android themes" width="300" height="500"/> /> This is for href="https://market.android.com/details?id=com.r3dx.theme.lunarui.black&feature=search_result">LunarUI Black. Here’s what the theme itself looks like:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image4.png" alt="android themes" width="300" height="500"/>

I really like the thin fonts, as well as the shape of the sliders. The whole theme feels a bit “angular” and sharp.

Let’s look at another theme:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image5.png" alt="android mobile phone themes" width="300" height="500"/>

This one is called href="https://market.android.com/details?id=com.kgill7.theme.NakedSimplicityB&feature=search_result">Naked Simplicity. Not everything you see above is a part of the theme – it mainly changes the notification bar, which ends up looking something like this:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image6.png" alt="android mobile phone themes" width="300" height="500"/>

Finally, let’s look at one of the paid themes, just to see what they’re like. This one’s called href="https://market.android.com/details?id=sh.pra.chroma&feature=search_result">Chroma 2.0 and it costs $1.29. There is also href="https://market.android.com/details?id=sh.pra.chromab&feature=more_from_developer">Chroma (basic), which is free. The paid version looks like this:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image7.png" alt="android mobile phone themes" width="300" height="500"/>

Installing a Theme

Now let’s buy that last theme and look at the installation process. First, tap the Download button:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image8.png" alt="image" width="300" height="500"/>

This will take you to the Market, where you can buy or install the theme just like you would any other app.

Once the theme installs, run Theme Chooser. Again, this application is not available on the Market, but it is available with CyanogenMod and other href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/install-custom-rom-android/">custom ROMs. Theme Chooser looks like this:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image9.png" alt="image" width="300" height="500"/>

You can swipe left and right to scroll between your existing themes. Once you found the one you wish to use, simply hit Apply. And… that’s it. There is no step 2. The end result looks like this:

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/image10.png" alt="free android themes" width="300" height="500"/>

I’m not sure yet if Chroma 2.0 is the theme for me (it looked better in the screenshots, to be honest). Do you have a suggestion for a better free Android theme? Let me know in the comments!

class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/wordpress.png" alt="free wordpress themes" />We’ve said it before, but it’s worth saying again.

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/video.jpg" border="0" alt="video.jpg" width="580" height="484" />

View the href="http://templatic.com/demos/video/">demo or href="http://templatic.com/freethemes/video">download the theme.

Dessign

Design have several impressive free themes for the typography buff, but they are all quite similar, making it even harder to choose which one you might use. The slight variations between each theme include colours, background and various ways of putting the grid-based theme to good use.

href="http://www.dessign.net/modern-theme-free/">Modern is a minimalist black and white, grid-based theme with a sidebar.

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Modern.jpg" border="0" alt="Modern.jpg" width="580" height="439" />

href="http://www.dessign.net/contemporary-theme-free/">Contemporary brings in a dash of yellow the theme, along with a graph-paper like background.

View the href="http://www.dessign.net/contemporarydessign/">demo or href="http://www.dessign.net/contemporary-theme-free/">download the theme.

href="http://www.dessign.net/studio-dessign-theme-free/">Studio is less traditional and more quirky in its layout. The black and white theme is great for the innovative and creative designer.

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Studio.jpg" border="0" alt="Studio.jpg" width="580" height="496" />

class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/0-themes-intro.jpg" alt="google chrome themes" />The big three – as far as browsers are concerned – have been making headlines as of late. Microsoft released IE9, which was downloaded nearly 2.5 million times in the first 24 hours of being released. While impressive, Firefox 4 class="vt-p" href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20046114-264.html">came out clearing some 5 million downloads in its first 24-hour release period. Google Chrome has even been in the news with some of its new features, like talk to search, being integrated in its latest beta release.

Out of the three browsers I’ve mentioned, Chrome is still my favorite. It’s very minimalist and I’m a fan of the overall design and functionality. Besides all that though, one of the cool things about Chrome is also one of its most basic features – the ability to add themes. People have created a lot of great themes for the Chrome browser that you can install with a simple click. In this article, I’ll show you the Google Chrome themes that I thought were the coolest.

What’s so cool about themes? Well, rather than try explaining it to you, check out this cool YouTube video that Google has whipped up for your viewing pleasure.

width="580" height="430"> name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PkwS9GPh9VE&hl=en&fs=1&" /> name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /> name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /> type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="580" height="430" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PkwS9GPh9VE&hl=en&fs=1&" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always">

1. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_chuckanderson.html">Chuck Anderson

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-1.39.59-PM.jpg" alt="google chrome themes" width="452" height="361" />

This might just be my favorite theme on this list. I’m a fan of the grayish-blue tabs and the bright universe-like stars in the background. I think you’ll like it, try it out.

2. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_glow.html">Glow

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-2.17.43-PM.jpg" alt="themes for google chrome" width="452" height="362" />

Glow is a really cool theme because, while it has a black background, it is actually quite colorful at the top. If you’d like to see your back, refresh, home, and preference buttons glowing you should be a fan of this one too.

3. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_djtiesto.html">Tiesto

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-2.12.39-PM.png" alt="themes for google chrome" width="449" height="361" />

If you’re looking for a dark theme, Tiesto is a pretty cool looking one. This one used to be my go-to default theme for a while, and I like the use of gray and white mixed in with the black background.

4. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_gradient.html">Gradient

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-2.20.09-PM.jpg" alt="themes for google chrome" width="451" height="360" />

This theme is displayed as a gradient (go figure) of various shades of blue. If you’re into blue you should like this one, and I can honestly say it shouldn’t be too bright for your taste either.

5. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_glossyblue.html">Glossy Blue

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-2.25.19-PM.jpg" alt="chrome themes" width="452" height="364" />

I like the Glossy Blue theme because of its use of grays and blues. With this theme, the tab you’re focused in on will be a shade of blue, while all the background tabs will be grayed out.

6. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_pencilsketch.html">Pencil Sketch

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-2.22.51-PM.jpg" alt="chrome themes" width="453" height="362" />

The Pencil Sketch theme is attractive because of its simplicity. It’s very basic, which is something you might like considering you’re a Chrome user in the first place.

7. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_jackspade.html">Jack Spade

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-1.40.43-PM.jpg" alt="chrome themes" width="452" height="360" />

This theme by an artist is pretty cool because it has that hand-drawn feel to it. If you’re a fan of the blue and orange color combo, or you’re into patterns, this might be your theme.

8. class="vt-p" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_rampage.html">Rampage

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-2.16.53-PM.jpg" alt="" width="449" height="360" />

Rampage is a recognizable contemporary fashion brand according to the theme page. Regardless of what that actually means, I just like the look and feel of this one.

9. class="vt-p" href="http://www.chromethemes.org/people/the-beatles/">The Beatles

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-1.33.16-PM.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="443" />

Let’s face it, there aren’t many things that are cooler than The Beatles. If you’re a fan, or you just wish your browser was a little more groovy, you should check out this theme.

10. class="vt-p" href="http://www.chromethemes.org/cartoons/mario/">Mario

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Screen-shot-2011-03-24-at-1.33.51-PM.jpg" alt="google chrome themes" width="580" height="437" />

The Mario thing is also pretty cool, especially if you’re a big fan. It’s a little too bright for my taste, but perhaps that’s just the sort of thing you’re looking for.

class="align-left" style="border: 0px none; margin-left: 20px; margin-top: 5px; float: right;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Tumblr-logo.jpg" alt="tumblr themes" />Yes, WordPress is by far the most popular blogging platform. But that is not a reason to discount the others. href="http://www.tumblr.com">Tumblr has kept on its steady growth as well.

It’s one of the easiest, straightforward blogs, and it’s got an impressive array of themes. We already discussed the href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/top-10-free-tumblr-themes-create-portfolio/">Top 10 Free Themes To Create a Tumblr Portfolio, but now it’s time for the actual bloggers to get a treat.

Below are ten of the most amazing Tumblr themes (freely) available!

id="more-50381">

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/5932">Chunky

Chunky is a strong, multi-columned theme. At the top a dark, weighty header that’ll immediately capture your readers’ attention and promote the ‘brand’ feeling of your blog. It also demos the ultra-bold typeface that’s continued throughout the rest of the Tumblr theme in quotations and titles.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-Chunky.jpg" alt="tumblr layouts" width="580" height="326" />

Your content is spread out over the three columns. Although this might sound counter-intuitive, the result feels simply playful, and still natural. The Chunky Tumblr theme is flexible in appearance, so don’t think you’ll be stuck with the grass-green look; a wide array of color combinations are at your disposal.

Two-word synopsis: Strong & Playful

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/5136">Linear

Linear is a theme for minimalists. It rids itself of the superfluous bulk, which results in a feel of modern clarity. It’s a one-column Tumblr theme, with extra info on the left hand side of the posts in a grey, non-dominating typeface.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-Linear.jpg" alt="tumblr themes" width="580" height="335" />

The emphasis is clearly on the content, and on the content alone. A bare look like this leaves little space for branding, especially considering the fact that the theme is already widely-used. You can see the ‘Untitled’ blog title in the top left corner.

Two-word synopsis: Minimalist & Minimalist

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/4949">Orange Peel

Orange Peel tries a different kind of minimalism. Although the theme is still void of any abundant elements, the emphasis has clearly shifted. The header is prominent in this design, atop the categories, and post information gets far more attention.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-orangepeel.jpg" alt="tumblr layouts" width="580" height="330" />

This Tumblr theme, with its two-fold color scheme, is perfect for bloggers who are still heavy on the content, but still want to nurture the face of their blog, albeit without an abundance of eye-candy.

Two-word synopsis: Minimalist & Balance

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/3661">Paper Walls

One can still stay in the more sober regions of theming, yet offer a taste of eye-candy to their readers. After all, visual elements are not only pleasing, but will be remembered and associated with your blog in the long-term.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-paperwalls.jpg" alt="tumblr layouts" width="580" height="311" />

Paper Walls features an inconspicuous striped background and an old school header, with a predominating blue-gray color scheme. Posts are put on top of crumbled paper, (figuratively) giving more texture to the overall design of your blog. This theme manages to look appealing, classy, and yet still a little playful.

Two-word synopsis: Classy & Fun

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/5112">Solstice

Solstice is more of what you’d expect to find in a blog theme, and one of the darker themes featured in this compilation. The layout is simple, but also strong in appearance because of the high contrast in the color scheme.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-Solstice.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="333" />

Posts are arranged in a one classic-blog column, with the type of post and number of notes indicated at the left hand side.

Two-word synopsis: Classic & Dark

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/6177">Postage

Traveling around the world? Spending a weekend in Prague? If you’re using your Tumblr as a travel log, as many users do, you should dress (your blog) to the occasion. Postage is a Tumblr theme that tries to pull off the postcard-look, and off-pulling it does.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-Postage.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

Under the theme-header is room for your blog name and description. Further down, the theme is divided into two columns; your posts on the left, without too much graphical jumble, and more information on the right.

Two-word synopsis: Travel & Light

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/2807">Papercut

Papercut is a tidier implementation of the on-paper look, as demonstrated in the Paper Walls theme, above. With straighter edges and less wrinkles, this theme looks far more professional. On the left side you can view post type and number of notes. These half-transparent buttons are the only real colors in this theme, and gives it a more modern touch.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-Papercut.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="335" />

You’ll notice that this is a very strict one-column theme – in fact, the information buttons is the only thing that’s sticking over the edge. As such, the ‘about’ column is also removed – this theme is title and content only.

Two-word synopsis: Modern & Strict

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/118">LightGrid

LightGrid aims to seduce alternative young ‘uns, with a predominately bright-colored (blue and yellow) color scheme. The theme is both playful and strict, but certainly modern.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-Lightgrid.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="324" />

With the design being mostly typographic and cut-out shapes, LightGrid isn’t very graphical in the strict sense, but most will agree that it’s certainly eye-appealing.

Two-word synopsis: Alternative & Sober

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/368">Esquire

This Tumblr theme was not created by, but based on the Esquire magazine (US edition). It features the same alternative color scheme and cut-out graphics, but in a different fashion than the theme above.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-Esquire.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="334" />

The Esquire theme features a static column on the left, and a scrolling column on the right – with your content. The design is certainly busier, but perfectly in balance and gives your blog both an alternative and a greatly professional look.

Two-word synopsis: Alternative & Professional

href="http://www.tumblr.com/theme/515">Plaid

The last in our line of alternative is plaid. If light-grid was sober, Plaid is one of the busiest themes on Tumblr. Here, busy doesn’t mean disorderly, but graphically pressing – in a good way.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/t-plaid.jpg" alt="tumblr themes" width="580" height="334" />

Plaid is without any doubt an incredibly strong team, and if you aim to entertain a crowd of alternative youngsters, it’s an incredible theme. This theme makes you stick out of the crowd.

Two-word synopsis: Busy & Strong
