Turn Gmail themes on or off for users

As an administrator, you can enable or disable Gmail themes for your users. 

With themes, users can customize the look and feel of their Gmail accounts by choosing their own colors and background schemes. Changing themes does not affect the content or functionality of Gmail, nor does it alter any settings applied by the administrator, such as a customized logo.

Note: Enabling or disabling Gmail themes affects all users.
