What’s your theme? Orkut shows it off!
February 23rd, 2010 | Published in Google Orkut
We've learned from your lively feedback that you love themes on orkut. To brighten things up, we added 40 colors to the new orkut; now, we're creating a brand new layout design and new set of themes! Ready to try out the new look? Just click the "themes" link beside the color palette on orkut:
You'll find your very own themes gallery here. Click on any theme to preview it, and then choose the one you like best. Whatever your mood or favorite flavor, we think you'll find a theme to match.
And if you crave someone else's theme when you're visiting their profile, just grab it for yourself with the "get this theme" link that appears on the top of the page:
Still not enough themes for you? Just browse the activity updates from your friends, click "preview" and then visit the gallery page to preview that theme. Your friends will also be able to see what cool themes you adopt. And remember: You can change your theme as often as you change your mood.
We hope you'll enjoy the new orkut themes. Or you can still use simple background colors instead -- by selecting a color from the color palette. And if you prefer browsing orkut pages without themes, just use the "Browse with no themes" option from the themes gallery.
Your excellent feedback spurred us to bring back themes. So continue telling us what you think at orkut's help forum or official community. And keep checking your themes gallery for new themes coming up from time to time. Watch for locally flavored themes as we go forward!
