Ideas for the Christmas skin?

[tesco]

Does anyone have any ideas for what they'd like to see in the christmas skin? (planning to make it this weekend/week).
Only ideas that have so far are:

Add some snow effects to some of the background images
Add christmas hats to posticons
Frost/snow effects on top of new reply buttons
Christmas Ornaments on the FST logo


Any better ideas?:P

edit: Oh ya and I ssaw a mod on vbulletin.org that makes snow constantly fall down the screen. That might be a neat effect too, but could get annoying quick. I will check it out and see how anoying it would be.

edit2: here's examples of what I wanted to do to the new reply buttons and other images:

[tesco]

frosty stars :unsure: didn't think of that :)


I didn't make those ^. They're our old IPB ones. :P

i think that snow effect would pretty cool if the snow came down just at the sides of the page, would look superb.

Put enough snow on everything - alot of it - when we move our mouse cursor it affects the snow.
Occasional times when it snows, then ices up etc
snowboarders crossing the "bars" would be cute.

Hows about Elf bowling for the arcade while your at it . :happy:

I dont know how to do javascript so I dont think I could do that.
I mages to make the snow work kinda but it is slow in FF, also makes FF slow.

Works great and looks great in IE tho.:)

[twisterX]

yea, its just too much becuase it makes everythign go slow and some people dont like it.

Frosty stars is a good idea.
Give every user admin powers for a christams present. :D

What about snow falling just over the logo, as an animated gif?

Ya that's possible.:)

[DorisInsinuate]

The falling snow javascript that kills Firefox would be cool. Can we have it as a skin all year round?

[Adster]

/me wonders if this is it for the Christmas skin...?

:dabs:

[Aaron_T]

i was pondering the same thing :dabs:

[sArA]

Yeah....where are all the snowy bits, and santa hats? I was looking forward to my frosty stars as they would go with my frosty personality.

[tesco]

I've been getting lazy about finishing the skin, i can tell you it is started at least and hopefully I will remember to finish before the end of the week.

[sArA]

I shall keep my fingers crossed (metaphorically speaking of course) and shall keep a watch for my frosty stars. :)

[Santa]

[tesco]

Will do it tonight :01:

Top priority. :)

[tesco]

Christmas skin can now be selected and is default for guests.

Give me ideas on how to finish it please. :P
