About

This is a theme designed to match the "Elegant Brit" family of GTK/Gnome themes. It also happens to goes well with Google Plus, as Google is using roughly the same colors and design.

Screenshot 1 - represents roughly what the theme looks like in Gnome (Linux/Unix) with Elegant Brit installed and "system title bars and borders" turned on. It has a gtk app there for reference.
Screenshot 2 - represents roughly what the theme looks like with non-native borders, like you might do in Windows.

----- Notes -----

I did not design the original elegant brit theme, but can find it here: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Elegant+Brit+gtk3?content=141800

The source for this Chromium theme can be found at the "developer's website" link, in case you want to hack at it. Also I'm using a modified (compact) metafilter theme, which I may eventually offer. I have limited vertical screenspace, and my titlefont is 0pt.

2.2 - Widened and flattened (fighting the shadows, mannn) the rusty-bar. Used elegant brit menu-text color for bookmark text. Fixed incognito mode. Smallified graphics. Cleanups. Rewrote description for "windows is fine." This version is probably the final, unless the chrome spec changes. I'm pretty satisfied with it.
2.1 - Added a bit of rust color between toolbar and frame. Tell me if this misaligns for anyone and I'll do a version revert.
