Personas Plus – Make Your Own Firefox Theme

Personas for Firefox is a feature in the browser Mozilla Firefox that allows a user to select simple-to-use themes, known as “Personas,” more easily than normal themes. Although at first only available as an extension, the feature was built-in to Mozilla Firefox 3.6. Persona themes differ from normal themes over the fact that Personas are more basic, easier to create, and easier to install, but are limited to changing the header and the status bar of the browser. They cannot alter the shape or appearance of toolbar items or tabs in the way that normal themes can. In regards to installation, Personas can be installed and activated with one click, while normal theme installations are more complicated and require a browser restart.

There are currently more than 35,000 Personas available on the GetPersonas.com website, compared with the less than one thousand normal themes available on the Mozilla Add-On website.

A free extension exists titled Personas Plus, which in addition to the normal features of Personas, enables the user to keep track of different Personas more efficiently and more easily create designs for personal use.
