CNET Editors' review
There probably isn't an easier way to change the look of Firefox than with this little freeware add-on. Personas installs just as easily and quickly as any other Firefox extension. When it starts for the first time, a Web page opens giving instructions in three steps. That's all you'll need to understand how this program works.
Instead of access through a File menu or right-click, you'll find a tiny fox icon in the lower left of the browser window. Just click to find four options: New, Most Popular, Recent, or All. Navigate to any of these to find options aplenty to skin Firefox. You won't even need to restart the browser for the new look to take effect.
Change your Firefox theme as often as you like with this simple, effective freeware. Personas is recommended for any Firefox aficionado.
Publisher's Description
From Mozilla:
Personas for Firefox is an extension that adds lightweight theming to your browser. And all you need to do is look for the one that best suits your preferences. Personas is a prototype that builds upon the ideas that: Themes today are too hard to find, install and use; Graphic designers should be able to style the browser without having to code; Browsers can be more than just desktop software, they can include online components; People just want their computer to be a little more fun and personal.
What's new in this version: Version 1.6.2 has updated for Firefox 4 and to fix some issues caused with recent server changes.

"Great, easy to use, now included with Firefox"
Version: Personas Plus 1.5.1
Pros
Switch themes very quickly, now included with Firefox 3.6, I highly recommend it
Cons
Can't rearrange position of Window elements (a tad limited), though far faster, which makes the tradeoff worth it!
Summary
Quite good, fast, better than the bloated themes you had to use previously in Firefox, I highly recommend downloading it. Better yet, FF3.6 includes it, so you don't even need to separately download it.

"Excellent! Works as intended."
Version: Personas Plus 1.0
Pros
-Simple to use.
-Like add-ons, there is a wide selection of community developed "skins" with more being added each day.
-Great way to change the appearance of the Firefox toolbars and statusbar without having to restart.Cons
There really isn't anything to complain about.
Summary
This add-on mainly works with the default theme though it does work on a few other themes. Its a great way to change your browser's looks without restarting. You can even design your own. Very easy to use with more skins being added each day.

"From labs.mozilla.org"
Version: Personas Plus 0.9.1
Pros
I downloaded this from the website, which has 1.0a1.
Great, allows you to make your own (avalible in 1.0 and ^.)Cons
Doesn't allow custom personas while offline. Plus, their server seems to be down half the time.

"Awesome!"
Version: Personas Plus 0.9.1
Pros
Pros: Gives Firefox very nice new looks. Some of the templates are simply awesome, specially the one with the Firefox logo. Also, it adds some unique features, like some transparency on the tabs bar and the like.
Oh, and it doesn't slow down Firefox!
Cons
Cons: Too bad it won't let you add new templates other than those that come with it. Would be nice to put one of my own pictures instead. Other than that it's really great.
