Donation Packs--Please help a little if you can.

Hello everyone.  As I mentioned in my last journal, I hurt my arm really badly.  It's worse than I initially thought.  I don't know when I'll be able to go back to work, since my job is to type for my boss.  I had a lot of unexpected big expenses in 2012, including emergency medical bills, medical equipment, and doctor visits that I needed to pay for out of pocket.  Those bills are taken care of and I have enough to get by on, but things are going to be very tight.  

I need a new computer.  I'm not sure I can afford that, and I know I can't afford to do that and continue pay for the hosting costs related to my blog.  (It's a blogspot page, so yes, it's free, but all of the content is hosted privately--and there is a lot of high res content, so I can't just switch to free plans.  Once my paid accounts on Photobucket, Flickr, and Mediafire go, so do all the freebies.  That includes not only the resources but ALL of the livejournal/dreamwidth icons, all of the free graphics, and anything else that I have posted there over the years.)

I really love doing the blog, and it's important to me to keep as much of my content as possible free for everyone to use.

So, this is what I am going to do.  I am looking to raise about $500 toward a new computer and/or $100 toward hosting costs.

In the next few days, I will be adding more gift packs like these:



Anybody who donates any amount of money--even a dime--can choose to download ALL the gift packs I link to.  

Anybody who donates $5.00 or more can request a custom pack.

If you are on Livejournal or Dreamwidth, you can also request custom icons
Anyone can request a custom site header or a wallpaper or other large graphic.

$1 gets you 10 icons or 1 large graphic.
$5 will get you 50 icons or 5 large graphics.
The more you donate, the more I will do for you, up to 250 icons.

There's a TON of free stuff in my gallery you can look at for examples of my work.

Thank you in advance; I really appreciate any help you can give.
You can click here to visit my blog and use the donate button.  You don't need a paypal account to donate.  If you're requesting custom graphics, leave a note either in the donate page on Paypal (you'll be given an option to do so) or a comment on this post.

And while I appreciate the concern of anyone who comments with questions or advice, please keep in mind that it took me over an hour and a half to peck out this small journal, so please don't be offended if it takes some time for me to reply to you.
