About

This theme was created only after trying most of the other top rated 'dark themes' and not finding any that were suitable to my requirements. Either the active tab was hard to find, the inactive tabs were hard to read or both. This theme was created to resolve those issues. If you use Chrome a lot, particularly if you're a programmer or power-user, you will hopefully appreciate this theme that is easy on the eyes while enabling you to find the active tab quickly and read the inactive tabs clearly. 

Update v1.1 Fixed background color on lower right 'toolbar'. (The URL when loading is now readable.)
