Gmail Gets Personalized Backgrounds, Email Prompts | News & Opinion | PCMag.com

Bored with the way your Gmail inbox looks? Now you can make your own!

On Thursday, Google launched the ability to personalize your Gmail inbox background by uploading your own image, or creating your own theme. Previously, users could only select from Google's pre-made themes and colors.

Themes in Gmail are great—there are tons to choose from and they give your inbox a personalized look," Google wrote in a blog post. "But we've heard from many of you who thought it would be even better if you could give Gmail an even more personalized look and create themes completely on your own." To start, click on the "Options" logo on the upper right hand corner of your inbox, then "Mail Settings." Select the "Themes" tab and "Create your own theme."
