About

A theme to integrate Chrome/Chromium to the updated "Ambiance"-Theme for the Gnome Desktop, which is the default dark theme in Ubuntu™.

It can be used with the native (Metacity) window decorations, instead of the custom Chrome title bar. On the Linux versions of Google Chrome and the Chromium browser, this can be enabled in the context menu, clicking in the "Options" (see the second screenshot).

This dark theme was build to have a significant contrast between tabs. 
 
The differences between the regular and U.F. versions are:
 ▹ Unchanged color (black) on the tab bar when losing focus; 
 ▹ No background image.

The goals to achieve with this build were:
 ▹ Integration with Ubuntu Ambience Dark Theme 
 ▹ Readability 
 ▹ Tab contrast
