How to Get Facebook Themes
You can adjust the way Facebook appears on your computer by using Facebook themes -- sometimes called skins. Since Facebook doesn't allow users to make changes to the actual website, your theme will be installed in your computer's Web browser through a plug-in. The plug-in will change the way Facebook appears to you on your computer based on the theme you choose. Some options for Facebook themes can be found at fbskins.com, facebookthemes.org or facebook-themes.info.

Browse to find the theme you want. You can use any theme that is compatible with a Facebook theme plug-in, so you want to find a plug-in that supports the themes you like. Search through the themes at sites like fbskins.com, facebook-themes.info or facebookthemes.org. Once you've found the themes that you want, it's time to install the plug-in in your browser.

Download the plug-in to your computer. Sites like fbskins.com and facebookthemes.org use one plug-in that installs to your Web browser and allows you to change Facebook themes. Facebook-themes.info has a separate plug-in for each theme, so once you install the plug-in for the theme you want, you're done. Fbskins supports Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Safari. Facebookthemes.org supports Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome. Facebook-themes.info only supports Chrome and Firefox.

You can browse the themes on their websites, and when you find a theme that you want to get, click "Select" or "Select Layout" under the preview image. The plug-in will download and install the theme for you.
