    If you have found a theme that is almost acceptable but would like to
    customize it further, this is how you do that in steps.

    Step 1 : Allow the viewing of hidden files

    1. In the Control Panel, open File Explorer Options.
    2. Go to the View tab for a list of advanced settings
    3. Under "Hidden files and folders" click "Show hidden files, folders, and drives"
    4. Click OK

    Step 2 : Find your theme

    1. Open Windows Explorer
    2. Navigate to
      C:\Users\[user-name]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions
    3. Sort by date descending the list of folders that have strange names
      to find your theme (should be the most recent one).

    Step 3 : Modify the theme

    1. In the folder of the theme (or a sub-folder), open the file
      manifest.json in a text editor.
    2. Find the "colors" section which will look like this:


    and also :

    1. The color of the bookmarks text is given by "bookmark_text"
      and the numbers inside the parenthesis contain the RGB values
      (red, green, blue).
    2. Change the number to the color you like. You may use a color-picker
      for that (picker1
      or picker2
      or any other).
    3. If you wish to change the background color of the header,
      this is unfortunately specified by an image
      in "theme_toolbar". You could use the
      Chrome Theme Creator to build another one.
    4. Save your changes and restart Chrome.

    I suggest making a copy of the theme's folder before modifying
    the file manifest.json as a backup.

  3. Bookmarks Bar In Chrome

    Hi.

    I know of no way to do that but what I do is put folders on the bookmark bar.

    One example would be financial. Then when I click on it I get a drop down of all the "Financial" bookmarks I have.

    I also edit bookmark names to be a short as possible so more fit in. This is likely something you are already doing.
