Can Eclipse 4 have color themes? [message #899502]

Hi, I hate the white backgrounds and such of most default colors. An article or two seem to suggest that eclipse 4 can be themed but I am yet to download one that works. They all seem to be for eclipse 3.

Could someone point me in the direction of some dark eclipse 4 themes please and tell me how to install them?

Thanks

Themes like these are possible but where are they?.

Thanks but it doesn't seem to install. Do you know of a way to install it without dragging that little image into eclipse?

Hey thanks guys for the help I now have Eclipse Color Themes installed. But the thing is it only colors the text editor. Does anyone know what plugin I linked to information about in my first link ( www.vogella.com/blog/2012/07/11/eclipse-4-is-beautiful-create-your-own-eclipse-4-theme/ )? That one colors the backgrounds on all windows.

you have to install "Eclipse 4 Chrome Theme", search it in the marketplace (Help -> Eclipse Marketplace... on Eclipse menu).

Have a nice coding day
