My Reasons

Brother and Sister

The above Persona is made from a photo in an album my Grandmother gave me when I was 6. And that was a long time ago! It is a photo of my Mother and her brother in a field at the family farm in Iowa. I think it is a very sweet photo and hope others will enjoy it also.

I am sorry I haven't posted for awhile, but I actually have a good reason this time. I ended up in the hospital for a couple days. I still don't know what the problem was for sure, but they seem to think it is cluster headaches. It is a headache you never want to have as you can not function with it. So, I just could not get on and post anything and try to sound up-beat.

Needless to say I haven't been working as hard on designs this past week, but I have lots of them already finished and ready to submit, so if I don't do anything today or tomorrow I have a back log to use. I want to start working on Christmas designs. And will try to do that next week. It is hard to believe it is holiday season already, but TV started advertising Christmas before Halloween was over. That is a bit too soon for me.

I hope you all have a wonderful week end. And I will get back to you next week if I can.

(A little about me)

I once said I never wanted a computer, BUT...
one of my grandson's is in the IT Department 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 my own personal Firefox ever since it was installed. Then it was opened so you could submit designs for approval in 2008. My 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 grand kids. I decided to 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 grand kids, 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.

I now use Photoshop Elements to make my designs. It is a very complicated program to use, especially at my age of 82.

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.
