I just saw one of the press releases mention weather-sensitive themes (as in, raining down on your email, etc.), and it seemed like this one was the most likely option. But so far I've only seen the time of day change. Could be!

I'm currently using the Tree theme; it's really smooth and sleek. Ninja is really cool too. I'm really impressed, and hope they release more soon.

I thought it was just for iGoogle. For that I have the Autumn theme with little raccoons doing fall activities. Including one that shows up after midnight of them eating pumpkin pie :D Wow, I didn't know they were making it for gmail, too. I thought it was just for iGoogle.

I chose the Terminal theme. And that really is how my terminal looks. Green on black is os much easier for me to read than black on white.

It's about time Google implemented this, i was really getting sick of the same UI i'd seen since i first signed up. i'm using the "Shiny" theme, just because it looks classy and will still load pretty quickly if i use my phone or have a slow connection when i'm onsite with a customer…i wish there was a way to customize what colors make up the gradients and items, though (for the simpler themes, of course).
