Create and Install Your Own Custom Themes in Google Chrome

Install Your Own Custom Themes in Google Chrome here is how

1. First you'll need to find this "default.dll" file to replace or edit it. Type following string in RUN dialog box and press Enter:


local settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application

NOTE: Windows Vista users can also type "appdata" in RUN or Start Menu Search box and press enter, then navigate to "local\Google\Chrome\Application".

2. It'll open a folder containing Chrome files.

3. Now when you are in "Application" folder using 1st step, you'll see a folder having some random characters in its name. Open this folder and go to "Themes" folder. That's it, you'll find the "default.dll" file in this folder.

4. First take a backup of this file before replacing or editing it, so that you can restore it if you want to get the default look back.

5. Now open this file in "Resource Tuner" and expand "BINDATA" folder.

6. Under this folder, you can replace the existing PNG files with your custom PNG files. Create your own PNG image with same dimensions using Photoshop, Gimp, etc. and then replace existing PNG in the "default.dll" file with your one.

To replace the existing PNG file with your custom one, select the PNG file in Resource Tuner and then press "Ctrl+Shift+E", it'll open another window asking for your own resource file. Press "Ctrl+O" and browse to your own PNG file, select it and click on "Open" button and then click on "OK" button.

When you have replaced all desired resources, save the file and you have done.

Since Chrome supports PNG files, there are lots of possibilities for theme creators to put transparency in their themes.

7. You can also download some 3rd party ready-made themes. Just download them and you'll get the custom "default.dll" file. Replace the default file with this new one as mentioned in above tutorial.

Google Maps in the Background of your Contact Form

There are basically two layers on the page – one is the map and the other is the form – and we are using the z-index property of CSS to define the stack order. The form has a higher z-index than Google Maps and thus the latter appears in the background. Let’s look at the actual code now.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The HTML — There are two DIV elements – the map will render inside the element with ID #googlemaps while everything that you add inside #contactform will show up in your form. You can even embed a Google Form here.
<div id="googlemaps"></div>
<div id="contactform">
<!-- You can even embed a Google Form here -->
</div>

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CSS — The #googlemaps element occupies the entire height and width of the page while the #contactform has a fixed width. You can also change the opacity level of #contactform to make your forms slightly transparent.
#googlemaps {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
position:absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
z-index: 0; /* Set z-index to 0 as it will be on a layer below the contact form */
}

#contactform {
position: relative;
z-index: 1; /* The z-index should be higher than Google Maps */
width: 300px;
margin: 60px auto 0;
padding: 10px;
background: black;
height: auto;
opacity: .45; /* Set the opacity for a slightly transparent Google Form */
color: white;
}

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The JavaScript — Find the latitude and longitude of your place and replace the co-ordinates in line #7. You can then copy-paste the modified JavaScript code in the footer of your HTML page.
<!-- Include the Google Maps API library - required for embedding maps -->
<script src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

// The latitude and longitude of your business / place
var position = [27.1959739, 78.02423269999997];

function showGoogleMaps() {

var latLng = new google.maps.LatLng(position[0], position[1]);

var mapOptions = {
zoom: 16, // initialize zoom level - the max value is 21
streetViewControl: false, // hide the yellow Street View pegman
scaleControl: true, // allow users to zoom the Google Map
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
center: latLng
};

map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('googlemaps'),
mapOptions);

// Show the default red marker at the location
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latLng,
map: map,
draggable: false,
animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP
});
}

google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', showGoogleMaps);
</script>

Change name : Gmail | Yahoo Mail | Outlook.com

Change your name in Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Outlook.com

You can change the From: name in your Web e-mail accounts. We'll show you how to change it in Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Outlook.com.

When you signed up for a new Web e-mail account, you probably filled out your account profile and entered your real name. When you send e-mails with that account, your real name is displayed in the From: field of the e-mail header.

You may, however, want to change your name so that only your first name is displayed for privacy reasons, or use a completely different name just for fun. All three of the major Web e-mail providers (Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Outlook.com) offer a way to change your name.

Gmail
Step 1: Click on the gear icon, then select Settings

Step 2: Click on the Accounts tab, then under the Send mail as: section, click on the "edit info" link.

Step 3: Enter a new name in the box and make sure the radio button for the new name is selected. Click on the Save Changes button to save.

Yahoo Mail
Step 1: Click on the gear icon, then select Settings

Step 2: Go to the Account tab, then under the Yahoo account section, click on the Edit button.

Step 3: Enter a new name in the Sending Name box, then click Save. Click Save again to save your new settings.

Outlook.com
Step 1: Click on the gear icon, then select More mail settings

Step 2: Under Managing your account, click on Account details.

Step 3: When your Account summary shows up, click on the "Edit display name" link under your name.

Step 4: Enter a new first and last name, then click Save. Unlike Gmail and Yahoo Mail, Outlook.com requires a first and last name.

Your new name should now show up in the From: field in all new e-mails. E-mails from the official mobile apps should also use your new name. If they're not, try logging out of the apps, then logging back in.

send photos to Chromecast using iOS devices

                     


Sending photos from your iOS device to your TV using Chromecast is now possible, thanks to this free app.

After Google opened up the Chromecast to all developers who were interested, it was only a matter of time until we started seeing apps hit Android and iOS markets alike.

One such app that's especially useful for iOS users, will send photos to a Chromecast. The app is called Photo Cast and is available for free.

After installing the app the only setup required is to grant the app permission to access your photos, and tapping on the Chromecast icon to select the device you'd like to send the photos to.

Then, any photos you select will show up on your TV automatically. You can even start playing a slideshow, with an adjustable timer for each slide.

Some downsides currently are the inability to send videos from your iDevice to Chromecast, and of course there's no way to continue a slideshow while the app runs in the background.

Google two-factor authentication

Two-factor authentication called -step verification in Google's speech adds a second stage to your Google login. Not just do you need to enter your username and watchword, additionally a solitary utilization security code, which generally gets sent to your telephone by means of an application or quick message. As an exchange for the additional exertion, you'll get an additional layer of assurance that can bail keep programmers out of your personal information.

Setting up 2-step verification

If you have an account for any of Google's services (Gmail, Google+, and so on), the setting up 2-step verification fairly straightforward. Start by visiting Google.com, and press the blue Sign In button in the upper right hand corner, and log in. Once signed in, look for your profile picture in the upper right corner and click it, then select Account from the menu that appears. 

Once you're at the Accounts settings page, select Security from the list along the left. Click the Edit link next to the 2-step verification heading to begin the process of setting it up.

How to use Google Calendar for groups

Instructions to utilize Google Calendar to keep assemblies sorted out

In the matter of keeping a family, group, or staff composed, nothing works superior to everybody having entry to one another's timetables. One of the most straightforward routes for everybody to stay on the same page is to utilize Google Calendar.

The quest monster offers a few courses for everybody to impart datebook information. Here's a gander at two especially accommodating choices.


Group calendar

The most straightforward approach to keep everybody on the same page is to make a gathering schedule that everybody puts their timetable on.

Open up Google Calendar and in the left-hand navigation column, click the downward facing arrow to the right of the “My calendars” heading. In the drop down menu that appears, select “Create new calendar.”


In the new page that opens, we’ll create a calendar for the Paul Family. So in the “Calendar Name” entry field we’ll put “Paul Family Calendar.” Put whatever you want in the description field.



Then fill out the location if you want, and set the calendar time zone to your local time. Note that Google Calendar does not automatically choose a time zone based on what you put in the location entry field. Since this is a private calendar for one family, we won’tcheck off “Make this calendar public.”

The last thing to do is send this to everyone in the family by filling out each family member’s email address under “Share with specific people.” Fill out the first person’s email then choose her editing rights under “Permission Settings.”

In this case we want every person who has access to the calendar to have full edit rights, so we’ll click the drop down and select “Make changes AND manage sharing.” Click “Add Person” , then continue adding other people using the same process.

When you're done, click the “Create Calendar” button to, well, create the calendar.

Google will now shoot you back to the main calendar page, and in a few seconds you should see the new group calendar under “My Calendars.”




Finding an event time that works

Another way to manage schedules if everyone prefers to keep separate calendars is to use Google’s “Find a time” feature. This will help you figure out the best time to schedule a meeting, party, or other occasion.

For this feature to work everyone has to be sharing their calendars with each other. To find out how to share your private calendar with specific people check out Google’s Calendar help page.

First, create a new event by clicking the aptly named “Create” button on the main page of Google Calendar.

Now just create your calendar event as you normally would: fill out the name of the event, select the date and time (we’ll change it later), add a location, and select the Calendar you want to use. (Note: this is where teams and families would choose the group calendar from the drop down menu.)

There you have it: Two distinctive, yet just as utilitarian approaches to keep your companions, relatives, and collaborators on the same page. Revel in!

Gmail loading images automatically

Gmail for Android as of late upgraded to permit pictures in your email to immediately show. Here's the means by which to turn it off assuming that you're not a fan.

As you may review, promptly in December Googled published it was set to begin showing pictures immediately in accepted messages. The organization guaranteed that it had resolved how to support the same level of security by handling the pictures through its substitute servers. In the meantime, Google proclaimed that the characteristic would finally go to its versatile Gmail applications.

Quick send to the latest redesign to Gmail for Android and the characteristic is to be sure incorporated. In the wake of upgrading on both my Moto X and Nexus 5, pictures were showing immediately in messages I accepted. I didn't need to change a setting, or empower it.

For some the new characteristic is set to be invited, however for others showing pictures could be a disturbance (and put a gouge in your information plan).

Fortunately, Google has incorporated a choice in the settings to change how pictures function. To require Gmail for Android to ask before demonstrating any pictures in an email, start the Gmail application and explore to the settings area. Rather than selecting General Settings, tap on the record you'd get a kick out of the chance to oversee, then span to the lowest part of the page.

At the lowest part you'll discover a posting for "Images." Selecting it will provide for them you the choice to set it to dependably demonstrate, or ask before demonstrating.

The picture on the left is the manner by which messages will show up when you open them with the "dependably demonstrate" alternative chose, where the picture on the right most likely looks natural and speaks to the "ask before indicating" setting under Images.

While the characteristic makes it simpler to view complete messages without making additional moves to load pictures, its decent that Google has made it conceivable to turn the characteristic off. The great news is while this setting adjusts over to Gmail's Web website, when in any case you need to determine everything is setup fittingly on the webpage.
