+1  Q: 

Eclipse Gurus: where can I find information to make a theme for the IDE? (I wish similar to Chrome)

Hello,

I suppose that similar to Chrome is impossible as all window api are not designed to make the wonderful cool effect of Chrome. However where can I start to make a theme for Eclipse?

+2  A: 

I am not sure this could easily be done with Eclipse 3.x.

But with e4 (Eclipse4), this would be easier through CSS styling:

That plus gradient effect can lead to pretty cool GUI:
