The plugin is a bit paranoid about outside content, for security 
reasons.

Assuming you've already decompressed it, you can stick it in your 
"untrusted" plugin directory (on my Linux system, that's 
"~/.netscape/squeak/image/untrusted").

Once you've done that (and assuming you're in a browser already), you 
can open the Navigator flap, and hold the button marked "FIND" down 
until a menu comes up. Now choose "find a project (more places)" and 
you should see the "untrusted" directory on the list. Choose the .pr 
file and it should load.

However... this particular project uses at least one class that isn't 
in the Plugin image (FaceMorph).
