I hate things that don't match. In this case, I hate Chrome's extension icons that are random sets of colors and styles. I decided to make replacement icons for the extensions that I love so that they'll all match and blend into the Chrome UI. Replacement icons for more extensions are welcome!
Each directory in the project is a Chrome Extension with replacement icons. The source .PSD is in the Source
directory, and ready to go icons are in the Icons
directory.
- Clone the repository or download the files using the Github .ZIP download option.
- Find the extension that you want replacement icons for.
- Copy the replacement icons from the
Icons
directory for the extension you want to replace. - Open the Chrome extensions folder found at:
~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions/
(CMD + Shift + G in Finder will get you there). - The extensions directories don't have a corresponding name to the extension, so hunt through each directory of seemingly arbitrary numbers and letters to find the extension that you want to replace the icon for.
- Paste the replacement icon from the
Icons
directory in to the correct directory in the extension, replacing the icon. - Disable and re-enable the Chrome extension, or just restart Chrome to see the new icons. VoilĂ !
