Happy holidays everyone! 'Tis the season to get in to the holiday spirit! Many wikis have added a seasonal theme to their WordMark or background to get editors in a festive mood. Have you added anything to spruce up your wiki for the holidays or winter season? Feel free to share your favotrites or add your own! :)

Here are some examples of a few of my favorites that I've seen so far:

It's snowing over on Ninja Gaiden wiki! You gotta give it a minute to start but when it does it's real neat. Check out how the snow gathers at the bottom and melts...so cool! --Meighan  (help forum | blog) 19:47, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Its snowing over on Ninja Gaiden Wiki. I had lights up as well but the code for that was never designed to work with wikis so I had to take them down due to them causing the page to not load occasionally. I actually took the snow down yesterday but Meighan made put it back up--GodPray 19:44,12/20/2011

Ahhhh that's sooo cool!! I love it! Festive yet subtle. :) ----Trellar

I had snow on Video Game Wiki, but decided to take it down. – Jä zz i 20:47, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Aw, any reason in particular as to why you took it down? Too distracting? ----Trellar

I can't really think of what to do for the WWII Wiki, snow seems like a good idea though. All I did was put a christmas tree in the logo because I'm not very good with graphics. How do you make snow anyway? Fargo84 21:21, December 20, 2011 (UTC)
