A neat add-on for Mozilla Firefox that I have recently come across is called Personas. In a nutshell, Personas allows you to add a new skin or theme to your web browser with a single click. I have played around with it and it is really fun to use. There are already more than 35,000 personas to choose from, and you can even make your own with images that you have.

Here's how to get Personas: You will need Mozilla Firefox 3.0.0 or higher, then it will require that you install the Personas add-on (current version is 1.4). The add-on can be downloaded and added to firefox from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10900

Once you have the add-on, you can access the Personas catalog at: http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/. You can search and pick from over 35,000 choices and by holding your cursor over one, you can get a preview of what it will look like on your browser before you add it. Once you have found one you like, click on "View Details", then click the button that says "Wear This" to add it to your browser.

Here's a pic of the current Persona I'm using, titled "Wishful traveling wolves". It looks quite nice if I say so myself.

Here's another persona that I found that may interest a few of you. That's right, this one actually has Balto in it (top-right corner).

If you want this one, then look for the persona titled "firefox wolf run animated". Yeah, I know, it has a dumb title, but it's a neat addition to your browser.

Has anyone else had a chance to use this neat new add-on? Is anyone interested in starting to use it?

Seems like Mozilla has copied an idea from Google :roll:

I disagree. No one is stealing, and if they were, what is the point of complaining about it? As of my knowledge, all browsers are free, meraning, the browser staff arn't doing this for money. So in the long run, these people who work for Google,Firefox, and IE (Even IE has a skin option, and this was long before google chrome did.), are giving there users the possibility to personalize their browser.

I was merely saying this is most likely a copied idea from Google. Nothing wrong in that.
