  • Once we access our Gmail account, we must click on the cogwheel located in the upper right part of the inbox and click on Themes.
  • Now, all topics will be displayed that we have at our disposal to use, from background images of nature, to fun drawings, through flat colors and images of objects.
  • To select the theme that we want to use, we just have to select it and click on the Save button.
  • If we don't like any of the pictures shown, we can use any image that we have on our computer by clicking on My photos, located in the lower left corner of the window where the themes are displayed.
