MaDonna's Firefox Themes

Glorious Sunset https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gloriuos-sunset-by-m-donna/   HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all.And I hope you had a wonderful Christmas or whatever it is you celebrate during this season. We had a wonderful Christmas holiday. Grandkids and great grandkids showed up with food and gifts Christmas Eve day. We got rocking chairs for our deck. Can't wait till summer when we can use them. I like to move so I love rockers. We have a rocker in every room "almost". Rocking is comforting to me and sometimes when my Fibromyalgia keeps me up at night I will sit in a rocker and rock as fast as I can...and that helps me get over it. They were all wrapped up in brown paper and we couldn't tell what they were so I asked them if they got us both walkers?  Christmas day we got got up early and got the Christmas chicken wings in the oven. They take 3 hours to cook and you have to turn them every hour. It is an old family recipe and everyone love

Holiday Greetings for You https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/holiday-gre-for-you-by-m-donna/   I have been asked numerous times about adding a theme to the latest version of Thunderbird. To be honest, I hadn't updated my Thunderbird so didn't realize themes didn't want to work! So I posted on the theme forum and got an answer today. It is not the easiest answer to follow but I managed to figure it out...so I am sure the rest of you can if I did. "The easiest way to install themes in Thunderbird is to open the Add-ons Manager and then use the search bar or the other navigation options to go through the themes available on https://addons.thunderbird.net/ . It should still work. It’s easier to install them through Thunderbird than to try to download them using a browser and then installing them manually." Install the latest version of Thunderbird/Add on Manager/Themes/ Featured Extensions/Themes/Top Rated/ Choose the theme you want and

Winter Glowing Green https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/winter-glowing-green/ I am highlighting one of my older themes but it is time tested and still a pretty good winter/Christmas theme. I am happy to see I have some new followers. Thanks for becoming a follower and checking in on it once in awhile. You will probably see I am very sporadic at posting. Here it is 9 days into December and I just realized I still had Thanksgiving on my blog...Let us hope your Thanksgiving leftovers didn't last this long! I am still working on updating themes and I did not realize I had so many Christmas themes and very few had been updated...so I am working on it. My husband is doing very well....slow and steady. The Doctors have scheduled his kidney cancer surgery for late January. I am just hoping by then the soreness from all of his abdominal incisions from the October surgery are better. They are going to do this next surgery robotically also and there will be ar

1 Fall Country Farm https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1-fall-country-farm-by-m-donna/ Well, everything was going along soooo sell and then last Thursday my dear husband starting bleeding so I took him to the ER first about 6:00 AM. They took tests, etc. and we got to come home. He stopped bleeding on his own and was taking it a bit easier. He had been splitting wood, etc and shouldn't have since it had only been 3 weeks since his surgery. Then yesterday the hospital called and said the culture had shown bacteria growing so he had to go on antibiotic and hopefully that will clear everything up. It just seems like we start thinking everything is going to be over soon and then you get kicked in the butt! We will overcome this, too.  I found a new extension I am liking. I have sensitive dry eye syndrome so light hurts my eyes and I had been using an extension that darkens websites. I tried another one last week called Dark Reader. So far so good. If the brightn

F-fox Gumball Bright https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ffox-gumball-bright-by-m-donna/ I have some time to catch up on my blog and it is all good. My almost 84 year old husband came through a very serious 4 1/2 hour surgery with flying colors. And everything is going very well. He just came in and said he was going on a hike! He has to get his blood count back up and his strength. In a month we go back and will see about getting the small cancer in his kidney removed. I feel so grateful and happy. If someone would have told me we would be in this place last July, I wouldn't have believed them. But he is an amazing man and I am happy and proud to be looking ahead to our 63rd wedding anniversary. I have actually found time to make some new designs using some of the newer Firefox logos. And I so enjoy making the fall themes because of the bright colors.  Thanksgiving Farm https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/thanksgiving-farm-madonna/ Th

F_Fox Master https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/f_fox-master-by-m-donna/ Thought you might like to see one of the new Firefox Icons. I am working on several more. Enjoy the bright colors!

😊 Just wanted to post quickly that my husbands surgery went very well. Took 4 1/2 hours and he is very sore and in quite a bit of pain. Got to bring him home yesterday and he had a really bad night so probably should have stayed one more night. The Doctors and nurses have been so helpful and kind. But they were working with a very wonderful  man. Thanks for all your hopes and prayers.  👍 Be back soon....Have a great weekend!

October Road https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/october-road-by-m-donna/ October 22nd was supposed to be the update so Firefox themes would work on Android. So many were having a problem with some themes on their Android. I just tried a couple this morning on my cell phone and they do seem to be working. So if you gave up applying a specific theme to your Android, try it again.  While I am posting, I want to promote a specific product. As you all know I have had Fibromyalgia for almost 40 years. I suffered with it for 14 years before they diagnosed it! Anyway what with Fibromyalgia and going on 81 the fall weather has really made me achy and stiff. My granddaughter-in-law gave me a sample of a product her Aunt sells. So I thought I would try it and WOW! This is the first product that I have ever tried (and I have tried so many) that you can tell within a few minutes that it works. It is CBD MAG Muscle Mist. I can barely raise my arms above my head in the mornin

1 Country Autumn Painting https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1-country-painting-by-m-donna/   I am totally amazed that it has been over a month since I have posted here. I am really sorry but it seems like there is so much to do and we have been having so many appointments, so time is flying. We went from summer one day and cold, chilly fall the next. I am not kidding. It was super warm one day and the next day it was very chilly. And we haven't had any summer days since then. We had a very early frost, so my hanging baskets all got frozen. We had planned on trying to keep one through the winter and get it cut back and in the shop but that didn't happen. I am still working on trying to get my themes updated. I have been working on that for 7 months. I am beginning to see the end though. I have removed some all together and probably should go through them again and delete more.  Do you like the way your themes are displayed and using them from

High Velocity Fun Flowers https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/high-velocity-fun-flowers/   Looks like we are back on the waiting game for my husband's robotic surgery. October 24th is the earliest we can get in. So far he is doing all right.He has quit bleeding so that is wonderful news and he can begin to get his blood count back up.   A friend gave us a Vitamix blender and I have been having fun making all kinds of healthy protein filled smoothies. I have watched several videos and learned a lot. He needs to eat a lot of spinach and he was getting so tired of it! But with the Vitamix I can make 3# of spinach and a bit of water, put it in ice cube trays and throw it into the smoothie. So he gets a lot more spinach that way and you don't have to worry about it going bad in the refrigerator. We still have to get his blood count up but he is doing more and really wanting to to get back into his work routine. The sad part is he missed out on most of the sum

  Mountain Cabin Collage 3 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mountain-collage-3-by-m-donna/ I am so disappointed...first thing Friday morning the hospital called and wanted us there an hour early so we hurried around and got there. They took him up to Pre-op and wouldn't let me go with him so they got him all prepped and ready...then left him alone in the room so he could start worrying and get stressed out. So he started having chest pains so that stopped everything in the tracks.....No surgery until he was checked out in Cardiology. He spent the night being monitored all night and tests. Saturday morning they did a stress test and he passed with flying colors so now...we are back to square 1 on a wait for a surgery date. We waited 6 weeks for this one. Let us hope it won't be another 6 weeks. The only good thing is that his blood count is coming up every day. It was 10.3 on Tues. and by Fri. it was 11.7. so that is good and he is not bleeding anymore s

Pansies and Lavender https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pansies-and-lavender-m-donna/   Well, tomorrow is the day we have been waiting for. In June when they said end of August or September, we thought it would never get here. And it has been a good thing to wait because in the last two weeks since the bleeding stopped he has been able to get some energy back and bring his blood level up some. They will probably give him a transfusion either before or during surgery...but we shall see. They are doing his surgery robotically so he will have less blood loss and quicker recovery and we had to wait over a month for the room with the equipment in to become available. We were originally scheduled for Sept. 3rd but since he was on a cancellation list, it got moved up to Aug. 30th. They have said at least a 5 hour surgery so it is going to be a long wait... Now to Firefox....no one has been able to figure out why some of the themes work with Android and some don'

Autumn River Ranch https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/autumn-river-ranch-by-m-donna/ Are you having a problem with some of the latest versions of a theme on an Android cell or tablet? Well, you are lucky if you aren't. No one can seem to figure out why but I have asked the tech experts to try to figure it out! My Running Foxes has been very popular and worked just fine. But a user asked me to change the far left part to be darker because on larger screen the dark gray didn't show up as well. So I did just that and resubmitted it. Then a user sent me a note saying that had been their favorite theme and used it for several years BUT all of a sudden it was plain white and when they tried to install it again, it was still white. So I asked a "higher up" about it and they didn't know...so I have posted a question on the forum and hopefully someone will figure out why the new themes don't work well/if at all on Android. I have figured out a work

Autumn Poppies & Bird https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/autumn-poppies-bird-m-donna/ Just when I think things are starting to go well....I get an education in what doesn't happen! Last Friday I took my husband to the Urologist for a routine check and everything seemed to be on schedule, with the robotic surgery scheduled for August 30th. But later that afternoon he started bleeding really bad and clotting so it was a bad week end. No sleep, etc. So called on Monday and they said to start flushing to keep the clots out so we have been doing that every few hours. That is a messy, messy thing to have to do. And no fun for either one of us, but much worse for him. I don't know how he is supposed to get his strength back when he keeps bleeding so badly. He has no appetite so has to force food down because he knows he has to to keep his strength up for the surgery. Luckily the weather has been pretty good so he can sit outside (he hates being inside) and

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/moon-over-pyramids-by-m-donna/ Well, the worst is over, I hope, for my husband. He is recuperating, trying to get his strength up. He managed to have a minor heart attack after we got home from the hospital the first time. So I had to call the EMT's again. What great men we have! When you need help and the room is covered with blood it is time to call 911. I have had to call them 4 times in the last 2 to 3 weeks. Three times they took him in to the ER and 1 time I took him. These gentlemen were so caring and helpful to both my husband and myself. I can't really say the ER in our area works very well, though. One time the EMT's took him in and the ER people put him in a wheelchair and set him by the door. When I got there I expected to find him in the back in a bed. Well, he could tell when he was going to start bleeding and he told me he didn't want to scare the little kids in the waiting room, so I pushed the wheelc

I am sorry I haven't been able to post anything. My dear hubby is in the hospital and I spend all of my days with him. I am trying to keep updated on reviews. Thanks for your patience.

PRIDES OF AMERICA https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/prides-of-america-by-m-donna/ Happy 4th to all Americans...Republican, Democrat, Independent or whatever. We are all Americans. The last two weeks have been really bad at our house. My husband is having a couple health issues so have been taking him to appointments,  2 trips to ER, another by ambulance, etc. He has at least 2 surgeries to look forward to! He worked way too hard on the wood from the trees we had blow down this winter. And that brought one problem on. But because of the tests they found he has cancer in his kidney. He has one surgery before they do the kidney, though. The Dr. seems to think the cancer has probably been there for a couple years and hasn't spread, etc. But it is going to be a long summer for him. We had a sit down at the table meeting with our kids and told them what was going on and they are so supportive. I know we will have all kinds of help and support. But it is goin

Poppy Light https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/poppy-light-by-m-donna/ We had a record breaker heat yesterday but I loved it. Cooler today and they say it could sprinkle tomorrow.  I just wanted to do a quick update here. Everything going well with knee, I walked 2.43 miles one day last week. I wasn't going for that far, but I forgot how many laps I had done! So now I take a piece of chalk with me and make a mark on the gate! Old age is great, isn't it? Yesterday I did 2 miles and it was over 80° so that wasn't bad but I was a bit shaky when I got back. I had taken a frozen bottle of water with me and thought it would thaw enough so I could get a drink after each lap but it didn't work that way! My husband has been working so hard on getting the trees down and cut up that blew over during our northeaster. Our son has helped when he can..but my husband is 83 and is working too hard. I have been going out and making him shut it down in the aft

Last of the Sunset https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/last-of-the-sunset/  Firefox has gotten up to 80% faster than a year ago (and still going) by making improvements at an average of 1% faster every week all while protecting your privacy online. I am still updating themes! I wonder if I will ever finish. They only let me update 3 at a time now, so it takes a long time.  We are having very nice weather this week so I have been able to go walking every day. Monday we went to Whatcom Falls Park and did some hiking and I "did" the stairs. I don't know how many there are as I was watching my steps, but I haven't been able to walk up stairs normally for over 20 years. So going through all the pain and physical therapy was worth it.  I am walking about 1 1/2 miles and riding the exercise bike 20 minutes everyday. If it is nice! I am a fair weather walker so won't go out when it is rainy and blowing! Our great granddaughter has a piano

Gossiping Grannies https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gossiping-grannies-by-madonna/ As you are aware I am updating all of my themes..anyway most of them. Some that are very popular I don't want to change it for the users so I am making a Version 2 for the users that don't want those faded looking toolbars. I came across this one I made awhile ago and thought it would be perfect for Mother's Day! I adore the looks on their faces.I also thought it would be a reminder for you to call or visit your Mother and Grandmothers. Even if it is one you haven't been in contact with lately...give her a call. Let her know you are thinking about her. I have been riding my exercise bike 20 minutes every day and walking a mile most days. I still need to work on the range of motion as I can't bend it as far as I want. I had it at 122° when I "graduated" from Physical Therapy and I don't think I have gained that much on it. I guess I am expecting

Mountain Lights https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mountains-lights-by-madonna/   Just thought I would pop in and let everyone know that Firefox fixed the extension problem that caused so many users to be unhappy with themes, etc. I got a lot of bad, 1 star reviews because they seemed to think the problem was me! So pop in to the themes and check the new ones and the updated ones to find one you like!  Have a good week. Looks like summer is on it's way in the Pacific Northwest. Great weather ahead for the week and continues through Mother's Day.

Just a quick note! Firefox discovered a problem with some of the themes and extensions so currently people are having a problem downloading a theme, submitting, etc. So you may get an error message or something else. Have patience....they are working on it and dit will be fixed shortly.  Certificate issue causing add-ons to be disabled or fail to install: We rolled-out a fix for release, beta and nightly users on Desktop. The fix will be automatically applied in the background within the next few hours, you don’t need to take active steps. For more information, please see https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2019/05/04/update-regarding-add-ons-in-firefox/   Hopefully this will give you a bit of info and the "fix" will be fixed soon.

Calm River https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/calm-river/ Well, I am back with a brand new knee. It has been 6 weeks and it was pretty tough for awhile. But with family and hard work I got through it and walk without a limp now! I still have a lot of pain or ache...whatever you want to call it. But I am not taking pain medication, except naproxen sodium and acetaminophen. The only time I took the oxy the surgeon prescribed was when I was in the hospital and before Physical Therapy classes. I graduated from that on Wed. I have to do exercises at home at least once a day now...it was twice a day. I can go down to 3 times a week over time. But I am back riding my exercise bike every day and started going for walks again.  I have been working on updating themes again and actually making a few new ones. Can't sit at the computer that long so have to keep getting up and doing something. Several people have commented on the updates...so I will try to answer so

We are finding that some users do not like the new updated theme format at all. I have had some very rude comments about this, If you like to have your bars with some shading you can go back and use the version that had it. The ones we are updating, usually don't so it allows you to see more of the theme.  So if your theme changed and you don't like the change, just go find the theme and scroll down the left side till you see "See all Versions" and go back to the version you liked. There is a big scary yellow warning bar...but it is perfectly safe to use the version you like! I am very busy trying to get my knee healed and with all the exercises, PT and icing, resting..I am not getting much other done. Have a good week.

Blue Grass Rain Shower Petite https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/blue-grass-rain-shower-petite/ Well, tomorrow is the big day! I get my new knee. It is scary but will be fantastic when the pain of surgery, etc. is over and I can walk with no pain. Anyway...that is how I hope it turns out. My knee is bone against bone so is pretty painful.  I have been so busy and overwhelmed with getting everything ready for that and then having to update 20,000+ themes. I have barely made a dent in that. And I have been working so hard. Spring Rain Drops https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/spring-rain-drops/ If you have any of my themes saved in your Themes, you might want to go to your Themes and check for updates. I haven't been submitting as many new ones because of working on the old ones, getting them updated so more theme shows. My 80th birthday was great. All (most) of the grandkids and great grandkids were here for so much food, cake and

Cat Rainbow Wishes https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cat-rainbow-wishes/ Are you ready for March? I certainly won't be marching into it! My 80th birthday is this week and some days I feel it and others I don't. I have been overwhelmed with everything that is going on. I have been trying to update all my themes to match the new format and it takes forever...and I haven't even got a fraction of them done. I am on page 21 of 1686 pages! Some of them I can't update for some reason. But I will keep working on it. I am having a complete knee replacement in mid March and I have so much to do to get ready for that. So many appointments, meetings, exercises, etc. When I looked at the notebook the Dr. gave me I thought the exercises would be a snap...but they are very painful. The Lions Club are a wonderful place to go for walkers, etc. There is no charge and you get to use them for 3 months. So if any of you have a parents medical equipment, the Lio

Eagles Nest https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/eagles-nest-by-m-donna/ I just updated my blog for February and Valentines Day so thought I would stop designs and post a bit. Today is Data Privacy Day so check and see if your email accounts have been broached. Firefox Monitor can check all your email accounts at:  https://monitor.firefox.com/scan Well, you have been using the newer theme site? How do you like it? Are you liking the Add-ons Manager for saving your themes and finding them? Different, isn't it? There are a few things I dislike about the Themes Add-on Manager. I wish you could go back to the theme you were using if you don't like or aren't satisfied with the new one you are trying out. I have mentioned that on the forum and hopefully they are working on it. Spring Rain Drops https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/spring-rain-drops/ One thing I noticed this past week end was that the number of users "numbers
