Firefox Persona - Spike
Preview of the header:
Get it (here) (footer is here)
Click the thumbnail below to see the Persona in use
(Info on Firefox Personas)
UPDATE! -- Get the Persona HERE at the Personas Gallery. This is a lower quality version of the one you can install manually, however.
Okay, here's the deal. You need Personas Plus to install a Persona manually. I didn't realize there was a difference. :( You can get that HERE. I tried to upload to the gallery, but the file size of the header is too big, so that will have to wait until I get home and can crack open Photoshop and hopefully bring it down. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience. I think I'll leave Personas alone after this. :\
1. Save the header and footer image to your hard drive. Note where you've saved them, you'll need to find them later when uploading.
2. If you have Personas installed, click Tools on your menu bar, place your mouse cursor over Personas, then click on "Preferences". here is a screenshot (If you don't have Personas installed, go here, install the add-on, restart Firefox, and then do step 2.)
3. Ensure the box "Show Custom Persona in Menu" is checked and close the box.
4. Click on the little fox again. Mouse over "Custom" in the menu and to the right find and click "Edit"
5. Click the "Browse" button next to the Header field, and browse to where you saved the header image(step 1). Single click the filename, then click the "Open" button. Repeat this process for the Footer field, using the saved footer file this time.

Don't forget to change the font color! :)
eta: Please, PLEASE let me know if you're having difficulty with the manual install. While I'd prefer not to post copyrighted images to the Personas Gallery, I will seriously consider it if these directions are confusing or just too difficult. If you have an opinion on where the directions could be clearer, let me know that, too. I've looked them over again, and have made a few changes, but I'm sure there's room for improvement.
I'm still trying to dial this in, the suggested width is 3000 pixels, so that's what I've done, but that means that a lot of displays won't show the shiny bits on the left. So, if you like this and would like it resized to fit your screen (if 3000 pixels is about 1500 too many, for instance) let me know. I do have a version that's 1280 pixels wide.
Of course it's all snaggable, and I hope you enjoy! :)
