Instruction: Say if you like theme #1, then to check it…

  • Open Orkut in another tab/window.
  • Copy whatever in Code box below the theme image.
  • Paste it into navigation/address bar of orkut window.
  • Hit ENTER!

The codes given on ur post are not working I used the codes from Rodrigo Lacerda’s blog and It does changes the theme but as soon as the page is reloaded it switches back to the previous theme.

Pls check ur codes buddy 😉

tanya June 3, 2008

codes are not working and option of theme is not available in the edit profile….

Rahul Bansal June 3, 2008

@Johnson & Tanya
If you want to see permanent changes use greasemonkey script posted here… 🙂

Herman June 26, 2008

These themes actually uses javascripts, but you’ve put a link to css files that only changes part of the skin.

Rahul Bansal June 27, 2008

@Harman
Javascript just modifies CSS of a page.
To keep code clean just posted CSS links… 🙂

And by the way we need greasemonkey script for permanent installation of script….

Neel August 17, 2008

hey guys codes are working see what ever script you downloading for orkut give it as open with firefox first….. den after doing this stuff click on script you downloaded and then its opens a new firefox page. after this go to tools->gracemonkey->manage user scripts…. enjoy

surjya September 21, 2008

how can i apply this theme?

Rahul Bansal September 25, 2008

@Neel & Surja
Above codes are half-baked, sort of reference code.
If you want to use them you can either create a wrapper greasemonkey script or better use them from official orkut themes.
