Where are you seeing those animated Personas?

If you go to the Persona Gallery and type Animated in the search box it will give you the animated personas .

Sorry about that, I didn't think to search for "Animated" - doh.

The Personas support group is here: http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla-labs-personas

Someone there should be able to provide tips or a link to a how-to article for creating an animated Persona.

There are 2 Firefox extensions to create animated PNG images:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5519 and https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9820

Try each for features to your liking.

Is there a tutorial for this editor? It saves PNG, but when I go to the folder where you saved it there is nothing. Can anyone give any further explanation?

is there any personas available for firefox 2.0

more options

No there aren't. Too many differences between 2.0 and 3.0 versions of Firefox, plus 2.0 was approaching end-of-life when the Personas project was started.

It works in Firefox 3 versions and in Firefox 2.0.0.20 for the Menu bar and other toolbars in the Navigation Toolbox with this code in userChrome.css You will have to get the personas images and place them in the chrome folder with userChrome.css and name the header file lightweighttheme-header

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#main-window,#navigator-toolbox {
 background: #ffffff url("lightweighttheme-header") top right no-repeat !important;
}
#main-window,#navigator-toolbox toolbar,#browser-stack,#status-bar {
 moz-appearance:none!important;
}
#status-bar {
 background: #ffffff url("lightweighttheme-footer") 50%/*horizontal*/ 100%/*vertical*/ no-repeat!important;
}
#urlbar-container, #search-container {
 opacity:0.8!important;
}


Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.
