Personas<\/a> continues to be a smash hit among Firefox users and boasts a vibrant community of users, artists, and reviewers with over 200,000 personas to choose from. That said, we should continue to explore ways to enhance Personas together as a community. “Should we add it?” posts like this one, will give us an opportunity to gather community feedback on various features and functionality we are considering.<\/p>\n

A segment of users have voiced the opinion that they would like the ability to see more of a given persona. Often times the reason for this request is that the persona image is cut-off by the browser’s UI elements, leaving the persona looking less attractive, or in the case of textual content, unreadable. However, there is a trade-off in user experience, adjusting the viewable area of your persona will come at the expense of the vertical space you have to view web pages.<\/p>\n

To help answer the question of “Should we add it?”, I put together an add-on (built with the new Mozilla Add-ons SDK<\/a>, naturally!) that enables you to expand the viewable area of your persona by adding up to 100px of space to the top of your browser: Personasizer<\/a><\/p>\n

Try out the add-on with a persona and let us know what you think with this nifty voting form:<\/p>\n
