Facebook Extras to Make Your Theme Even Better by

facebook extrasWe all love Facebook, but sometimes, many people feel as though the company is not introducing new features as quickly as we would like (or simply ignoring some of them altogether).

The biggest one, of course, is Facebook themes, which allow users to dress up their pages with wallpapers. There is a Facebook skin for just about every interest out there, and it will take your page from a plain white background to anything you can imagine.

But the Social Extras browser plugin will enhance your Facebook experience with a ton of other features as well. From the vaunted dislike button to custom design features, Social Extras is one plugin that gives you everything you have ever wanted in a fun Facebook page.

Be sure to check out some of the best Facebook extras below:

Facebook layouts blog postThere’s a pretty good chance that if you’re on the Internet, you’re also using Facebook. The social networking behemoth has essentially ingrained itself into our lives, making it as important as air or water.

Okay, so Facebook might not be that important, but it’s definitely something many of us cannot live without. The only problem is, it’s not very easy to customize. Unlike MySpace, which let users run rampant with customization, Facebook continues to have a pretty rigid design.

Or does it?

With a Facebook layout, you are able to alter the look of your new Timeline with just about anything, from your favorite movies and artists to pictures of your college/university, holidays, sports, nature and more.

Martin (Sonny) Mendes winner

Buckeye Basketball Winner!

The Ohio State Buckeyes tipped off this year’s basketball tournament season by giving away a Thad Matta signed basketball to one lucky user of the official Buckeye browser theme. While the field was more crowded than 68 teams, we still emerged with one winner and Martin (Sonny) Mendes was the Buckeye fan who took home the prize!

“I received the basketball today and I am thrilled to get it. I enjoy the theme toolbar because I have instant access to all the OSU stories while it is always displayed on my Browser. Thanks again and GO BUCKEYES!,” Mendes said.

The Buckeyes Athletics department ran the contest as a reward to the loyal users of its browser theme.  A button appeared in user’s themes for approximately two weeks in March, presenting the opportunity to enter to win the Thad Matta autographed basketball. Fans who clicked on the button filled out a short entry form for their chance to win.
