I finally got around to updating Seabreeze for VGA. Seabreeze has been a long time favorite. I'll work on editing the desktop wallpaper version for widescreen. Look for that soon. I have to admit I felt a tad nostalgic working with this old favorite. It was one of my first all-original designs and I've always been really pleased with it.

It's cold and snowy here today. The calendar says it's the first day of spring. Someone needs to inform Mother Nature. Maybe these spring tulips will warm things up a bit.

McDan took this photograph of a blossoming tree in our back yard. I thought it came out beautiful and deserved to be this month's desktop calendar wallpaper. Matching theme available too. I wonder what other hidden talents he has.

There's something about Easter eggs that have always made me love them. Must be those soft pastel spring-like colors. I don't know what the weather was like in your part of the world today, but here in Ohio it was sunny and warm. Spring is finally here.

Ahoy mates!

I'm feeling nautical today. Maybe I'm just anxious for our end of September vacation to Key West. I NEED to go sailing! I moved here to Cincinnati from Cleveland about 11 years ago. I used to do quite a bit of sailing on Lake Erie while living in Cleveland. Sadly, there is not much sailing here on the Ohio River. So, I have settled for outfitting our house in an all nautical decor. We have lighthouses, ship's wheels, and sailboats everywhere.

I've compiled a few more nautical themes for subscribers only. They will be in this month's newsletter that is finally going out tomorrow. We were delayed due to all of the server issues. Subscribe to the newsletter using the form on the right side-bar and you will be sea-sick in no time!

Here's a new one. My iPAQ is still out for repair, so I have not tested this theme yet. Please let me know if there are any problems with it. I'm mostly concerned if there is any seriously ugly banding in the gradient background.

Sorry I have not posted for a couple of days. Work has been keeping me busy lately.

I could not talk Dan into going out to get us some ice cream tonight, so this will have to do. Bummer.

You will probably notice that I tend to post new themes on the weekends. That's really my only "playtime". After a hectic week at work, it relaxes me to create these.

This one is called Sea Breeze. I started out with just the beach chairs and wanted to build something around it. Adding elements one at a time, this is what I came up with. Now if I could only go there. Like...now.

Spring is finally here. Strange weather we are having here in Ohio. Last night it snowed and tomorrow it will be 60 degrees. Can't wait to break out the shorts and t-shirts again.

Made these themes while in a spring-like mood.

It's Spring!
