Uninstall/disable all new tab extensions and you should see it.

Could you explain how to Uninstall/disable all new tab extensions?   (to turn ON the low neon bar)

Go to chrome://extensions/. There you will see all your extensions.

Sorry, but I'm just not able to follow you !  I'm familiar with with extensions/manage extensions section.  I have lots of extensions for MS Edge and Chrome (I am actually using the Microsoft version of Chrome in their new Edge browser)  None, I believe, are "tab extensions" - but are extensions like password mangers, cache cleaners, etc. There is a setting to disable all non-MS Edge extensions (i.e. those from the Chrome Web Store), but disabling those doesn't enable the neon bar. In fact, disabling all my existing extensions still doesn't enable neon bar.  Is there some other setting (maybe something in Google Chrome Browser but not in MS Edge Chrome) that you have in mind ?

Afaik it's not possible to disable default new tab page in Google Chrome (so, theme's new tab image should be always visible), unless you have a new tab extension installed. It's different in Edge. You should have said that you use Edge in your initial post. I just tried to install few themes (my own and from other developers) in Edge and new tab image does not appear in any of them, so it's broken or there's setting in somewhere in Edge, but I don't find any.

I know that they can be installed. What I meant is new tab background image of any theme that I tried (mine or not) didn't work. Try this theme for example: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/deadpool-full-screen-them/echjomhoplepodjjaaohelfnlnoelhgd. The new tab background image doesn't work in this theme, what I see is default edge new tab image. Is it different for you?

One last time: I believe your theme seems to have two parts: 1. Coloring the TABS and 2. Adding a "lower NEON bar"   Per the attached graphic, I have 1. but not 2. It would be nice to also have 2.  I have absolutely NO INTEREST in the new tab background image.

I think you should modify the theme description on the Chrome Web Store to note that: "the neon bar appears ONLY on a NEW TAB page --and NOT on any other page.  This feature does not work on the Microsoft Chrome Edge browser"  That'll end any confusion.

The "lower NEON bar" = new tab background image. The Deadpool guy in the theme I linked is new tab background image. The neon in my theme is new tab background image too. It's new tab image because themes CAN'T modify any page outside of new tab page. You show the screenshot of trendingpolitics.com and expect neon on that page, but no theme in the store can do such thing (only extensions can do this). What you need "doesn't work" in Chrome either. Both screenshots in Chrome Web Store show new tab page as you can see here (the address bar is empty): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/neon-kingdom-rnbow-neon-t/hcblhoelddfblfdajahoblegakkhlepl. There is no google logo because I use Clear New Tab. No one claimed there will be neon on all pages. The reason I linked that deadpool theme is to show that problem with missing neon (=new tab background image) is not unique to my theme. There's nothing I can do to fix this.

I will note in the description that neon appears only in new tab page (didn't realize it was confusing), but putting info about edge (or any other browser) will most likely count as "promotion of other browsers". It's Chrome Web Store after all.

i don't know where you modified the description to include that the rgb rainbow only shows up on new tab page i spent  hours on a mac + windows computer in chrome trying to figure out why this would not work for me, and not until days later finding this thread did i discover it only shows up on the new tab page. if it is there you did not do a very good job of highlighting it love the theme big waste of time trying to get it to do what is described in the images. would have been nice not to waste time trying to get something to work that can not even do what is described.
