If you're a Google user (and who isn't these days) you'll notice that Google is pushing its latest ware that you don't think you want, but ultimately do: iGoogle.After numerous stubborn attempts to stick with the "Classic" look of Google, I eventually relented and started customizing my iGoogle page.
Well, like a good Halloween Addict, my first stop was the iGoogle Themes and tucked away behind the superheroes, nature-scapes, and abstracts was --low and behold-- iGoogle HALLOWEEN themes.iGoogle (You ever say "iGoogle" in your head more than 3 times in a row? Starts to sound silly...) currently has over 40 different Halloween-tagged banner "themes" to choose from.
They range anywhere from supremely spooky to something that looks like it was made by your grandmother with scotch tape and leftover Print Shop clip art.
I can only imagine that the number of Halloween-specific themes will increase as we get closer and closer to October 31st... not that it matters to a Halloween Addict... I'll be using this best-of-the-bunch Spooky Scarecrow theme for the next 365+ days.And for those who want to know how to find iGoogle...
Just Google it.

Cool...although I am inherently lazy and resistant to change. But that looks just fab enough to make me take action...ha! :o)
I used the pumpkin theme last year, those other two are great! Gonna go get one right now, thanks!
Wendy: I'm always resistant to change... 'til you slap a jack o' lantern on it.
Captain: You, sir, are WELCOME.
Hey there, Jacula with the Portland Hallowe'en Bazaar here. I'm a long time reader of H.A. and just wanted to share a plug for yer stuff I just posted to our e-fiends here in the top left of the country.
I know this is long and ugly and I'm sure there is a cleaner, neater way to give you a link to the page but...when have us 1031 ghouls ever been worried about neat and clean? Just copy and paste and feel the Portland Oregon admiration seep through!

Hi Jacula!
Thank you so much for the plug!
I tried a number of different ways but I can't get the link to work. I think it may have gotten shortened somewhere in the ether.
Send it through tinyurl.com so I can appreciate 1031 Halloween Addict ghouls!
I did find this site here:
http://www.portlandhalloweenbazaar.com/
... So let me know if that's you.
Yep that's me.
Here's the tiny url link!

Awesome find! I wish they'd let you use those themes for regular google searches as well.
Hey Jacula,
Tried the little link too, and it just keeps bringing me to the main MySpace page.
I don't know what to do!
