Smells Like Facebook 2.5, Celebrating 1st Birthday

Hello folks,

The new version of Smells Like Facebook finally arrive. In version 2.5 now you can customize your WordPress to the new layout of Facebook. But if you miss the old school header, don’t worry, you can switch back from the Smells Like Facebook admin page.

This release also celebrating Smells Like Facebook 1st birthday. On April 4th on year ago, I committed myself to upload this theme to the WordPress Theme Directory. Although the Directory finally released to public on April 15th (after several revisions), I still assume that today is the birthday since it’s the day where I stop typing codes for this theme.

Thanks for everyone who use this theme. Thanks for any critics and suggestions coming daily to my inbox. And special thanks for everyone who donated to me, you’ve energized me up!

Also, I’m sorry for the very long delay (the last release was on Dec 31st :P ). It’s my office job which waste most of my time in these 3 months.

For the download, since the Theme Directory seems suspended my theme account, so I upload the theme to another server.

Download Now!

That’s all. Enjoy!

Firefox: Persona vs Theme

Posted on by

Recently, Mozilla launches a new feature for their Firefox browser, called as Firefox Persona. It’s an addon that allow you to change the skin of your Firefox with your favorite brands. They’ve made a new site for the Persona Gallery where you can download the Personas made by many designers. One thing in my mind when I know this: “What about the Firefox theme?”.

As you know Firefox has already had the Theme Gallery, which is integrated to the Addon Gallery. What about them after the Persona is launched? In their FAQ page, they said that Persona is a special type of theme that changes the look of your browser without changing the navigation buttons, toolbars, and menus, while Themes change the appearance of Firefox.

Still curious, then I made a test: install Persona and a theme at the same time. And here is my conclusion: Persona is made to re-skin your Firefox, it is only capable to give a new background for toolbar and statusbar, while it can’t make any modification to the style of the buttons, tabs and any color like Themes do. Imagine that installing Persona is like making a tattoo to your body, while installing theme is like getting a plastic surgery on it. And happily, you can combine both!

Here is the screenshot of my Firefox tattoo-ed with WordPress Vintage Persona and altered with Vista-aero theme. Nice, eh?

Oh, I just realize that the Personas is much like Google Chrome themes. Hmm..
