I just logged in to my gmail this morning and found this new notification about themes. I clicked on it and it took me to the Account Setting where i found the new 31 different themes that you can choose from.Â
To choose these theme:
1. Click on Setting, located at the very top right hand corner near the sign out link.
2. You will be presented with normal account setting similar to the picture below
3. Click on themes link which the very last tab on the tab bar
4. Select the theme you like!
You can also try the unofficial way of changing Gmail’s Theme here. It seems like TechCrunch has already made a post on this :-)Â
What do you think of these themes and which one do you like the best?

What would you normally do when you have plans to start your own web design project? Thinking hard, trying to come up with the next best Site design. Or you just want to come up with some amazing and creative ideas. However at times your mind and mouse are not moving as one or just maybe you are not in the creative mood to work. If you want some fresh and creative examples then look no further than these 14 websites!
CSS Remix | The FWA | CSS Dance | CSS Heaven
Design Shack | CSS Nature | Best Of The Web Gallery
CSS Design Yorkshire | Best Web Gallery | CSS Gallery | CSS Moon
CSS Elite | Oriental Web Design Inspiration | Cool Homepages Web Design Gallery
I think these are some of the most beautiful examples of what can come from a dedicated hard working web designer. If you’re stuck I suggest taking a good hard look at some of these web sites and if you keep at it you can really make something special!
Enjoy!

Soundsnap is a great platform where you can find and share free sound effects and loops. So you might ask where do these sounds effects and loops come from, well It is a collection of original sounds made or recorded by its users, and not songs or sound FX found on commercial libraries or sample CD’s. This is exactly what makes it legal.
It was originally started by a small group of so called “sound people” from all over the world. Their belief is that sounds and samples should be free for everyone to use in their projects, commercial or not!
Their users are a diverse mix of sound designers, sound artists, web game developers, filmmakers and music producers. Hobbyists and home video makers are welcome too. They encourage everyone to upload high quality sound FX and samples, helping them make every kind of sound available on Soundsnap. I like the domain name as it seems pretty relevant and interesting but very hard to find in near future.
Some of things that Soundsnap shouldn’t be used for are:
- An alternative to Myspace, Limewire or BitTorrent.
- A place to upload your band’s songs or your favourite mp3’s. Soundsnap is only for sound effects and loops.
- A place you can upload or find sounds from commercial libraries. All sounds here are original- made or recorded by its users.
I love to promote this company as it is free to use and as i am a lover of open-source. Hope to see this company grow huge on the net.
Please share your thoughts and opinions on this great music sharing website.
