Last week Google launched a new directory for iGoogle themes. At the same time, the company launched an API for developers who wanted to create their own custom skins for the Google personal homepage service. But if you're not the sort of person who enjoys spending your spare time sifting through XML code, creating your own theme might seem a bit difficult.Luckily someone has been kind enough to create an online application that lets you design iGoogle themes with no coding knowledge. All you have to do is visit igThemer and choose from a long list of colors, Google logos, and other graphics.
Or if you're looking for real-time feedback on your designs, another developer has come up with an iGoogle theme editor bookmarklet. All you have to do is visit iGoogle and copy the code from his site into your URL bar. Up will pop a theme editing dialog asking you to choose your colors, images, and graphics. Unlike igThemer, this application doesn't give you pop-up color selection tools, so you'll need to enter color codes by hand.
