Description

A theme for Google Chrome, for people who love Japanese prints a lot! πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅ ⛰️ 🎨 "The Great Wave off Kanagawa is a woodblock print that was made by Japanese ukiyo-e artist Hokusai, probably in late 1831 during the Edo period of Japanese history. The print depicts three boats moving through a storm-tossed sea with a large wave forming a spiral in the centre and Mount Fuji visible in the background." "Katsushika Hokusai , known simply as Hokusai, was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the Edo period, active as a painter and printmaker. He is best known for the woodblock print series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, which includes the iconic print The Great Wave off Kanagawa. Hokusai was instrumental in developing ukiyo-e from a style of portraiture largely focused on courtesans and actors into a much broader style of art that focused on landscapes, plants, and animals."

I love this theme. But couldyou please rid off the drawing at the right side of the bookmark bar which is in dark colour because it is distracting me tolook at the words. I dont want tochange the theme, so please adjust this. Thanks!

Wish the wallpaper was 4k or something. It is only applied half on the screen

Beautiful background, but did not fully fit my screen.

Top bar is too bright in my opinion and the wave picture should take up the whole screen.

I mean its okay and all it would be nicer if the wave on the top part of the screen was facing the same direction as the actual image.

Were it not a pretty Japanese wave, it's be one star. Full screen not supported and funny looking tabs.

For those with large screen resolutions the image is too small and looks a tad pixelated.

The image doesn't fill the window (there are white bars on either side). The image by the tabs is tiny as well. Looking at this theme available for Firefox might give some inspiration on how to improve it.

Beautiful, but not ideal for the big screen, and tends to blur text on Favorites Bar.
