I love the Personas but I can't figure out how to show the portion of the image that can be displayed at the bottom of the window; how do I turn this part on?

Pretty picture shows nicely at the top portion of window, where the toolbars are located. But the portion that can be shown along the bottom of the screen (above the taskbar (I think it's called?)) isn't showing & I can't remember/figure out how to turn it on so that this is displayed too.

"Personas" is basically dead. The name was changed to "Lightweight Themes" and Mozilla seems to me to have lost interest in that feature. IMO, it's a case of corporate ADHD - build it, promote it, hook a lot of users on the feature, lose interest in it by not continuing to "show it love", and in two or three years "kick it to the curb".

Basically, the Add-on Bar is gone in Fx29 - so there's no image at the bottom. There is an extension that restore the Add-on Bar, and it appears that it supports Personas - based upon the screenshots on the add-on download page.

Thank you SO much for your insightful heads-up! As a techno-creampuff, I didn't recall that it was termed the Add-On Bar. And I appreciate the update regarding this Mozilla change - I am grateful for your informed opinion on the matter. =o)

Got the answer from the-edmeister. Didn't have to send him a picture, since he knew exactly what I was talking about. That dude ROCKS.
