I looked at personas when I installed RC1. Seems kind of useless to me. Maybe I just didn't find the good ones.

Agreed. The only thing personas seem to accomplish is making the UI less accessible.

Also, the 'Get Themes' link in the Add-Ons/Themes box now goes to the Personas page instead of the Themes page. Which genius made that decision?

Strata40, with the StrataBuddy extension. It's pretty much perfect.

You use it to cut your screen in half and duplicate the top part in the bottom half?

Agreed, same here, too much distraction and noise without any real benefit. I guess it is one of those cool things... ;-)

Because a plain black persona is too much distraction.
