A very tricked out browser
I slid my finger softly across the touch pad, and placed the cursor over the tiny little masked fox in the corner of my browser. I gave the touch pad a gentle touch, and as the sound of my nail tapping against it died away, began to put the new Personas add-on I had just downloaded through its paces. I'm a die hard gadget loving gal, and any plugin, add-on, or other gadget that will allow me to trick out my desktop, or browser, is a gadget I can't resist. I knew the conditions I started the Personas test under were going to be difficult because at that moment in time and cyber space, I was still having serious connection issues due to the great satellite re-point. However, even with all the difficulties I had getting signed into my account, and the skins loaded due to those connection issues, I knew Personas was a must have add-on for me the moment I did get my first skin to load!
As soon as Starband got my connection problems solved, I slid my finger across the touch pad again, and whizzed back over to the Personas page. Along with a few others, I added some Autumn and Halloween skins to my Personas Favorites. The small collection of skins I currently have in my Personas favorites list are just the tip of the tricked out browser iceberg. There are oodles of groovy skins left I haven't added to my favorites, yet. While surfing the Personas pages I also discovered I can actually make my own custom Personas skins. I may try my hand at making some of my own custom skins some day, and if they turn out, share them with other Personas users.
Along with making sure I have plenty of favorite Personas skins to choose from, I also installed the FoxTab add-on. Tricking out the FoxTab background with another picture, either on your hard drive, or from a web url is super easy. Simply launch FoxTab, then click on the Select A Theme icon and browse your hard drive for a suitable wallpaper picture, or enter the url for a picture on the web. Since I have plenty of nice wallpaper pictures stored in my Desktop Pictures folder, I promptly tricked FoxTab out with a nice fall background image from that folder. When I switch to any of my Halloween, or any other Personas skins, I change the FoxTab background to a nice image from my Desktop Pictures folder that compliments the Personas skin I'm wearing . My new FoxTab add-on is more than just a pretty face though. I have developed a habit of having at least 4 tabs open at any given time in Firefox, and sometimes as many as 10. My standing open tab record at the moment is 15. You don’t want to know what I was doing with all those tabs open that day. Fortunately, even on the busiest open tab days, the new FoxTab add-on gives me a very elegant and efficient way to keep track of multiple open tabs.
