You may use Jeeeyul's Chrome Theme and configure the color and tab-round by your own choice.

Eclipse Juno and later do not have this checkbox anymore.

To enable traditional style tabs:

  1. Go to [eclipse_folder]\plugins\org.eclipse.platform_4.2.1.v201209141800\css
  2. Open the css file that corresponds to your selected theme, e.g. e4_default_win7.css
  3. Then find the selector .MPartStack and set swt-simple to true

Depending on the version, you will find that at Window > Preferences > General > Appearance > Show traditional style tabs.
