Baby steps!
Okami Amaterasu is now crying in a corner. Good job.

You and Redlin5 are never allowed to change your avatars

Okay. I fear I have butchered a talented artist's work with my pasted holly and makeshift scarf, but here it is, the Christmas avatar...

Srsly tho. Wasn't it bigger, before?

You're welcome Caramel, I had a feeling you would be turning up in this thread sooner or later ;-)
I couldn't resist. As soon as I saw this... I knew. I had to become part of the thread.
You have my support, JoJo. I won't let you do these alone brother.
Thank you! This is awesome! :D

Maybe it's my imagination, but it does look smaller, or rather, it looks like the viewer backed up a bit so we could see more of the top-hatted abomination.

I tend to just change to a snow-themed avatar for the winter, rather than shift for Christmas. Something to keep with the Type-Moon theme I've had going.

Wonderful, an excuse to wear this avatar again. Could be more Christmas-y though I admit. I'll add a hat or something later n____n

Yours is amazing, though. Frappe is a wizard.

If you are not 100 percent satisfied with yours, (though I think it looks great) just ask him to work some of his magic on yours too.

Amen to that man. I actually like that quote... "We can make this forum a better place, one avatar at a time."
That's really awesome, i'll remember such a quote ^_^ haha!!

Actually, there's a feedback thread to the Reader's Choice Game of the Year 2013 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/index/658] forum.

Perhaps you can ask permission to link your thread, so people get their Avatars altered for the holiday spirit and also in spirit of the competition. I already asked, but because you made this thread... it's basically the same deal lol.
Sure, I'll do that now, although I'm not sure whether we'll get a response any time soon, don't know if the staff are actually checking the thread >.>

I still have the snow files from Fanboy that he gave out years back if people want some falling snow on their avvy, as well as several hats, which I've sneakily edited into your OP, Jojo :3

I'm working on mine now, It was hard finding a good one this year that I haven't already used.

I allow myself to indulge in seasonal variants but Team Rocket is always in it.

OT: I don't know what my avatar for this Christmas will be... I'm thinking about it and I have a really good avvy artist helping me. :D

Huh, I can't see your edit anywhere in the OP Sky, are you sure it went through? I edited the OP a few minutes ago to mention the GOTY angle so if our edits coincided that might have screwed one of them up :-/

Uh oh.... xD

Maybe it's just slow tonight? I'm sure it looked fine when I hit "post".

I don't know a damn thing about avatar smithing, so sadly the sirens will not be santa hatting it or making Christmas explosions.

...

That sounds dirty as hell.
