Actually, the way mentioned in the askvg.com URL to hack the
default.dll is unsupported, has caused crashes, and is actually much
harder, even for just replacing the images.
Look at the images section of the manifest.json:
"images": {
"theme_frame": "images/theme_frame_visual.png",
"theme_ntp_background": "images/theme_ntp_background.png",
"theme_toolbar": "images/theme_toolbar_visual.png"
},
It uses plain-old, human-readable text to specify the images that you
want, keyed against meaningful label names for what that image is for
(as opposed to the coded resource names you get from hacking
default.dll). What could be simpler than that? And, of course, this
is the proper, supported method to create themes.
