Rolf Harris

“Most of us use the internet daily and to have painted a theme which anyone, on the internet anywhere in the world, can access is an amazing thought.  My iGoogle theme evolves according to the time of day and the painting takes on different colours and tones so that the screen reflects the time whether you are in Brighton or Bangalore.”
 
Missy Higgins

"It was fun having the freedom to create a home-page that reflects my life. It definitely makes it more interesting to log on when you have cute little updates and reminders each day about all the things you care about."

Akira Isogawa

"Before being approached for this I had no idea that personalising a Google homepage was a possibility. Fashion to me equates to expressing one's individual identity, so it's pretty amazing seeing this personalisation across all walks of life now, including technology. I'm used to working with fabrics so seeing my designs in a totally different setting and working with Google has been a fantastic, eye opening experience. Who knows what the future holds with these sorts of collaborations."

Reg Mombassa

“I’m a committed Luddite and would not know how to turn a computer on, but I am told that many people like to use them.  I like people to look at my pictures and it is good to take them off the gallery walls and put them onto other things.  So the opportunity to have some of them featured on computer screens is much appreciated.  Thank you Mr. Google.”

The Wiggles

“Wiggles fans love to be able to see their friends every day. Now, every time you connect onto Google, you can connect with all The Wiggles and our friends, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Henry the Octopus, Captain Feathersword and Wags the Dog. We tried to make our pages reflect what children love- music, dancing and having fun! So get ready for fun and get ready to Wiggle!”
