This theme needs update after the last chrome UI update. The tab hover color is to bright.

I have only two words: THE BEST

Decent theme. Like the contrast between the tab bar and the rest. I feel the grey could be warmer instead of the cool color it is, and I suppose the black could be a little lighter and maybe have transparency if it doesn't already. Then it would be perfect. If I could choose an HSL value specifically for the grey, it would be H:30 S:10% L:50% And if I could choose a specific HSL value for the black, it would be H:30 S:10% L:20% Well dang... I'll probably just end up doing that myself, lol.
