Make Your Firefox Prettier With Personas

Firefox 3.6 has a new thing known as Personas.  What this does is allowing you to change the look of the primary area of your Firefox browser which is the top part of your browser.  It seems that there are around 30,000+ Personas that your Firefox browser could wear.  It’s cool and it does make Firefox no longer a boring browser — prettier too!  Don’t confuse this Personas thing with Firefox’s themes.  Firefox themes do more than just changing the background images and colors for various parts of the top part of the browser; Firefox themes could change the look of the browser completely such as making Firefox looks exactly like Chrome browser but running the Firefox engine.  Firefox’s Personas does remind me of Chrome’s themes, because Chrome themes tend to change the top part of the browser to look prettier and more colorful.  I’m not sure Personas will work with Firefox 3.5 or not, but you could try it and then let me know through comments if this will work or not.  You can get Firefox’s Personas at getpersonas.com.  Check out the video which talks about Firefox’s Personas after the jump!

Unfortunately, I was hoping that this Personas thing that Firefox 3.6 got going could do something like Windows 7’s wallpapers.  What I mean is that I wish the Personas could allow you to set a playlist of Personas which will change every 5 minutes or 10 minutes and so on; this way your Firefox browser displays a new Personas between the time intervals.
