How to edit chat overlay themes

In a chat overlay you can change many different aspects of the theme of your overlay by adding a new chat overly field of type "theme"

And then choosing which characteristic of the theme you want to change.

Below shows a sample screenshot to reflect what each theme setting does. You can easily use google's colour picker it help you pick hex colour codes, have a look here
