About My New Computer

Posted on by ModGirl

Well, whoever came up with the idea for Windows 11 start menu should be tarred and feathered. What a piece of crap that is. And here I thought that Windows 10 was pretty bad. Ugh, well it’s not as bad as this new abomination of Windows 11. What were they thinking when they came up with that? Hells Bells is all I got to say about that.

And because I cannot stand the Windows 11 start menu, I decided to purchase the Start11 from Stardock website. What a bad idea that was. Apparently using this new Windows computer software will NOT let you just add any old software to it. I woke early this morning to setup my new computer and then after sitting here a while trying to get past that ugly start menu I purchased that software so it would change my start menu to the old style of Windows 10.

I did a search this morning and I keep finding that Windows 11 is difficult to use when you want to add any type of software to it. Whatever happened to the customer being able to use there computer HOWEVER they like? Well, bye, bye. You got Windows 11 now so you’re just out of luck. Sad but true.

And since I cannot change that awful start menu I am stuck with an ugly and sad looking Windows software. At this point I don’t even want to use the computer at all. And if that was there reason behind creating such a disgusting, ugly and useless piece of crap start menu, well, congratulations. You succeeded.

And you know, before I even purchased that software program from StarDock I went online trying to change it with other software. I tried using OpenShell. Nope, didn’t work. And I tried using WinAero Tweaker and again, nope, didn’t work. So the last thing I did was purchase a program to use. And did it work? NOPE. Because the freaking screen freezes each time I even try to add the product key to activate it. Again, Windows 11 won’t let me do what I want to do with my own computer.

And you’re probably thinking, well, it couldn’t get any worse RIGHT? Well, you’d be wrong there too. I can’t change any system files in my computer or disable anything to try and get other things to work. And honestly, I shouldn’t have to. The whole purpose when getting a new computer is to set it up how you want it. There was nothing even remotely appetizing that was offered when setting up this new computer. However, If I had wanted to use it like a cell phone then it would be perfect as is. But I create graphics everyday. I need the graphic programs to be able to do what I need for making graphics.

Anyway, that’s how my day is going. Thanks for stopping by and hugs, Mod Girl.

My Tubes

Posted on by ModGirl

So, I’ve been making a lot of tubes from the AI graphics that I create and I thought I would share those in a new group that I will be creating today. There will be a small fee of $10 dollars for entrance into the group, and that’s all you’ll ever pay as a member of the group. One of the reasons why I am charging a fee for my tubes group is because all the tubes you’ll receive are by me. I created the graphics and then I removed the background from all the tubes afterwards. And another reason why is because I need some way to pay for my web hosting. I have tried other ways to do this but no one seemed too interested in those ideas, so I figured I would try this instead and see if that works.

And if all else fails and no one seems interested in this idea either then there is really no point in me even trying anymore and I might just stop making tags altogether and remove this site along with all my others. But hopefully it won’t come to that because I know the members of my tag group love my tags and would hate it if I stopped making tags for good.

Anyway, the link to the payment for my tube group is in the link above with my other page links. Thanks for stopping by and hugs,

New Computer

Posted on by ModGirl

Well, this weekend was a surprise to me. We were in Walmart checking out the electronics and I spied the computers and mentioned to hubs that I would need a new computer soon because I was using Windows 10 and they were updating everyone to the new software. And because my computer wasn’t compatible with Windows 11 it was either stop computing altogether or get a new one, lol.

So, right there in Walmart hubs said; “Pick One”. So that’s what I did. It’s still sitting in the box and hopefully by tomorrow I will be sitting in front of my new computer. Actually, I’m not really looking too forward to that because I will have to add all my programs to it and then move my files to the new computer, I have already started moving my computer files to my external hard drive and I will probably just use the externals for all my files in the future anyway. This time, I want my computer to have only programs I use everyday and Windows software. That’s really all I need to add to it because all my personal files, graphics, music, etc… are all on the externals. And because I have like a dozen externals now, I won’t have to worry about running out of room anytime soon, lol.

Now, I just hope that I don’t run into any problems with logging into websites with the new computer. All sites these days not only use passwords but also use your IP address also to verify who you are. And with the new computer I’m pretty sure my IP address will also change. So, we’ll have to see how that goes.

Anyway, I just wanted to tell you the good news about the new computer. And it’s new to me because it’s not the kind of computer that I am use too either, so that’s going to be interesting, lol. I am using a HP computer right now but the new computer is a Lenova (all in one). And, I am used to having a tower hard drive and the new computer doesn’t have that. I just find that really strange but hey, new ideas are hard to get used too sometimes so…..

Wish me luck folks because I might need it, lol. Thanks for stopping by and hugs,

Domains on sale!

Posted on by ModGirl

I have reduced the prices on all my domains that are for sale from now until March 1st, 2026. And, after the sale is over all these prices will go back to the original price I was asking for each of them. So if you ever wanted to snag a domain name at a reduced price, well, now is the time!

Did you know that domain names increase in price over the years? Yup, they do. And some domains are labeled as “premium” domains and those are worth a lot more. When you have a domain name appraised it will tell you if that domain name is a premium one.

I’ve been collecting domains for a very long time. And I will only purchase domains that are dot coms and ones that are useful to others with a good wording for the domain name. Domains that have good wording are always better searchable in the search engines like Google. When I say “good wording” it means the name of the domain. Names that have some meaning are best and ones that others can easily remember are even better because if you have a domain that people can easily remember then they’ll be able to find your site more easily. And everyone wants visitors to there site, right? I know I do, lol.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know about my domain names and give you a chance to grab one before someone comes long and grabs them all up. There are many companies that deal in domains and they will buy up domains right on the spot IF they think they can make some money off of them. And that’s where good wording comes into focus. If they see that the domain has good wording then they will jump on a domain in a heart beat.

So, if you want a good investment in something, I would suggest domain names. I have made money on a lot of domains over the years. When I first started however, I was not sure what to do and sold some domains too cheap. Some of those domains today will sell for well over thousands of dollars now. But, you live you learn, right?

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs,

Updates!

Posted on by ModGirl

Okay, so I felt it was time to bring back one site and removed 2 that I felt needed to be removed from my web hosting account. ScrapbookFreebies.com and TagTutorials.com have both been removed from my site. I might create a site using a free forum service to host all my scrapbook freebies in the near future but for now, it’s no longer here. And my tag tutorial site was removed because I just can’t find any time these days to create any new tag tuts because I’m much too busy with other things at present. But you never know what life will bring in the future right?

Anyway, I brought back my other shop called ModGirlDesign.com and that site will be using my AI designs and some graphics that I received from a paid subscription graphics site to create physical items like tees, tote bags, hoodies, coffee mugs, etc… that I can sell to others. Most of the graphics I download from the paid subscription site can be used in printing on physical clothing and household items.

And so far I have added a few products to that site and I’ll be adding a lot more as time allows. I am busy creating graphics and as soon as I get them all sorted I will open them in photoshop or psp and add some quotes or text to them so they can be ready for printing. This does take time to do but I think it will be worth it in the long run. And the good thing about that is that I can also take special orders and add whatever text someone wants added to a product. Most people like to have items that are not like everyone else and are original. And hopefully this will be something that others will find useful too.

Anyway, that’s all I wanted to tell you about today. I hope you have a wonderful day today and hugs,
