Its yet another surprise from Gmail, last week they introduced the video and audio chat in gmail and now gmail themes are out where you can choose from a hand full of themes for your mail. Following the footsteps of Google’s personalized homepage, Gmail added themes. Once the new option is enabled in your account (as usually, Gmail’s new features are slowly rolled out), you’ll find a tab named “Themes” in the settings page and you’ll be able to choose from 30 themes. “We wanted to go beyond simple color customization, so out of the 30 odd themes we’re launching today, there’s a shiny theme with chrome styling, another one that turns your inbox into a retro notepad, nature themes that change scenery over time, weather driven themes that can rain on your mailbox, and fun characters to keep you in good company,” mentions Gmail’s blog.
