I tried to use the same grumpy-orc-with-santa-hat I used last year, but it just broke my avatar altogether.

Am I now doomed to an eternity of digital facelessness?

Well, I guess I'll try and keep with my road sign theme. Here's a moose smashing up a car. Canadian and festive.
Happy holidays.

That's a rather glass-half-empty way of looking at things. I prefer to think of it as a tiny modern art landscape. I like tiny paintings. No idea why. Much like little bottled ships, bonsai plants and snow globes. Micro machines. Lego.

I shall be lazy smart and efficient, and reuse my avatar from last year. Huzzah!

OT: I like how everyone who's posted so far has a gif, I feel like I'm missing out. Maybe I need to fire up the gif-making skills again :p
If you want, you can be lazy smart and efficient like me and simply save your current avatar as .gif and done!

/spreading lazyiness smartness and efficiency

EDIT: seems I was too smart and efficient...

Done!

(Please don't flag me for a low content post; I seriously don't know what else to say, since this thread is essentially nothing more than a "Change your avatar to fit the season" drive.)

Boom. Christmasized.
It works even better for this, cuz the dwarf almost looks like Santa... cuz he has a beard

Well shit, that's not a very good way for me to start out the holidays!(I love your avatars by the way)

On topic, maybe I will redraw my current one with my new fancy arting skills, and this time, actually have good line work and coloring inside the lines. It's not noticeable thankfully at 85 x 85, but the coloring and line work on it is pretty bad at full size. Since it represents me, and it's been about a year, I guess there's no reason not to redraw and and see how far I've come in the last year! Oh, and I guess I'll use the magic of layering to add a Christmas theme, then go be able to go back after Christmas!

If there is someone who could edit this picture of Link to have a red tunic and Santa Fluff on his hat I will love you forever! I would do it, but I don't really have the means, and if I did, laziness wouldn't let me do it. :p

I don't think Shenron would look very good in a Santa hat. He can handle snow however.

.. Did someone make a Christmas Avatar thread?



OT: Thank you JoJo for making this thread. Was honestly waiting to make one for the Christmas Mayhem, but this can suffice all as well. If anyone seeks assistance in their Avatar being altered to a Christmas themed one, do notify me. I can do Still Pictures, GIFs, and even make entirely new GIFs from a selected video or source.

JoJo said:
Also thanks for the vector hat. I didn't save that one back then so I lost in touch with the original santa hat. Looks like it's back in my vector folder :) and Merry Christmas to everyone!

Two things:

1) Thanks for giving me credit. I truly appreciate being given credit if anything else. It's my role as an artist :p

2) If you want, I can 'try' making your Avatar Christmas themed though most of his head is already spacing out of the borders lol.
If you could help me out with my Christmas avatar dilemma, that would be terrific! To quote myself...

Feels so dirty quoting myself. >.>

True, but then I'll get the loss of the quality due to the limits of a .gif and none of the advantages of a moving image so... I think I'll be even lazier and just keep my current .png avatar :-D

You're welcome Caramel, I had a feeling you would be turning up in this thread sooner or later ;-)

Yup, Christmas related avatars are awesome, thank you staika for making my Christmas one perfect!
No problem, it's what I do. Though for payment you will be my walking talking exhibit of my skills! Soon the whole world will know my name!

If you two need to barrow a few pie missiles to take on Daystar I'll be happy to lend them to you.

OT: I might have a more Christmas themed avatar next year, but I'm not gonna bother getting my current one Christmas-ized this year.

I liked the snow stuffs that we used to have, but the santa hats should look just as nice on everyone this year.

Too bad I can't really hat my hat
