Blogging

I am totally new at this "blogging" stuff so you will all have to have patience with it. I probably won't have time to check in every day, but will when I can. I spend most of my computer time designing.

I am working with someone on another project also and as soon as it has become available I will post the web site here.

(A little about me)

One of my grandson's is in the IT Dept. at WWU and installed Firefox when he built my desktop computer. I really like it and won't use any other browser now. It is safe, fast and has tons of extensions to make it easy for your browsing. One of the add ons they have available are themes which they used to call Personas. They had been called Personas for several years and became very popular, but someone at Mozilla got the bright idea to change the name. Whatever you want to call them they are still a fun quick way to make your browser personal. You can find my Persona/Theme designs at:

I make desktop wallpaper designs to match many of my themes, which you can use as background themes for GMail. You can also use them as a wallpaper for your cell phone. You can find my desktop wallpaper designs at: http://my.desktopnexus.com/MaDonnas/uploads/

I have been making theme designs for Firefox since I found out you could make your own. I made them for my own use first and then started submitting designs when they opened it up to the public in 2008. The design called Sunset Over Water had over a million and a half people using it at one time. It is from a photo I took off Chuckanut Drive on our way home from a wedding.

I have always been interested in design. When I was a little girl I designed clothing for my paper dolls. Then designed and made clothes for my regular dolls. I made most of my own clothing in high school. When I was older I designed, sewed and made our 3 kids clothing. When they got married and started having babies I made tons of clothes for our 7 grandkids. I decided to design and sell some of my designs. Fibromyalgia decided to put a stop to that. Sewing for hours a day was just too much.

I am a bit of an over-achiever and when I start something, I don't know when to quit! I have done a little bit of sewing for our great grandkids, but I know I have a limit and when to stop.

I used to design and make jewelry and sold at bazaars which was a lot of fun.

I work on themes and desktop wallpaper designs almost every day and have enjoyed hearing from people all over the world.

I was asked to design themes for Brand Thunder. They have theme designs for people that use Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari and also Firefox.In 2012 I won a Nexus 7 tablet on a pop culture contest they held. They have changed their format so I don't make designs for them anymore. People don't seem to be too happy with their New Tab Themes.

I am now using Photoshop Elements to make my designs. It is a very complicated program to use, especially at my age.

Thank you all for your comments and using my designs. I will keep making them as long as I can and people enjoy using them.

Thanks to all for your support and patience as I just don't take time to update this blog as often as I should but I am going to try to do better in 2017. Plus someone asked me to write more about my life when I was young so I just may do that. Our oldest great grandson loves to hear about how things were in the "old days"
