The 'Christmas Avatar' thread....

If you've just clicked that link and are wondering what the heck you just got yourself into fear not!

In case you haven't noticed i decided that for this Christmas i was going to get into the spirit of festiveness online (if not offline). The challenge is to 'pretty up' your chosen avatar for the month of December and spread the holiday joy to the forums....

Thinking about this i may have been subconsciously forced into doing this by Wordsmythe who had a Santa hat on his avatar last year....
Oh well, i'll blame him when this gets locked and for people telling me it's a stupid idea

Yeah, I've got one, but I'll wait 'till December. No Christmas music before Thanksgiving, and NO AVATARS!

I'll switch over to my Santarchy avatar on December 1st. It's too soon to think about Christmas.

I don't think I need to do this because if you get really close to the screen and look at my avatar, you see this:

I'll make one up.

I was actually going to introduce a new avatar anyway, might as well launch it with a christmassy spirit.

Waiting until at least the Chicago downtown lighting ceremony tomorrow.

I've edited my avatar a little since last year, so I'd have to redo the hat. Not sure I want to do the Bears colors again this year, either. Bulls/Blackhawks could work.

Nah, it's only 10 days until December. I normally wouldn't have posted this early but i've had such a lousy couple of months that i needed something to cheer me up.
