Lovely Personas to Decorate Firefox on Valentine's Day
After presenting the lovely themes you could get to decorate your Windows 7 operating system in honor of Valentine’s day, I thought it a good idea to remind you that you could get some lovely Personas to decorate your Firefox browser.
You can check out all available Personas on gerpersonas.com. But to get the ones that will help you decorate your browser in honor of Valentines Day you should check out the Holiday section; you can do that by clicking this link. To better put things in perspective, here are a few examples of the types of Personas you could get.
Personas are natively supported by Firefox ever sine the release of v.36 (the latest Firefox release is version 10.0). To see how your browser will look like with a Persona, simply place your mouse over it (this works on the GetPersonas site, not here). To use a Persona you like, just press the “Wear it” or “Wear this Persona” button.
In related news, Mozilla recently announced that it will rebrand Personas. It seems that most new users are confused by the term Personas. New users do not use the term “Personas” to describe the look of their browser, they use terms like “wallpapers” and “backgrounds” instead. Because new users are confused by the term, and since tests ran by Mozilla showed that new users are more likely to try out Personas when they are called something else, Mozilla decided to rename Personas to something more understandable and localizable.
In further related news, Microsoft is running a Valentine’s Day Sweepstakes and it’s putting up a Sony VAIO Y pink laptop. All you have to do to take part in the sweepstakes is become a follower of @windowsblog on Twitter and share a love story or a funny moment that involved using technology with someone you love; you must share that story on the Windows Experience Blog.
