Upload your Christmassy avatars! 🎅 (I'm not asking :p)

JJLemon18

Helloo its me again with another Christmassy post. I'm already seeing loads of very lovely Christmas avatars/profile images! Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas... or whatever the song goes like...

Anyways!

I'm here to encourage everyone to upload their very merry profile images to make this place look even more jolly! And this thread is for sharing all your amazing Christmas avatars and ideas! ☃️

I will do a 'Best Christmas Avatar' competition (totally not stealing @cc_ilaria's idea), so if you want to take part then please post your best profile avatars here and on the 13th I will set up a poll so we can vote for the best one!
Winners announced on the 23rd just before Christmas! That way its 10 days to submit, and 10 days to vote - but if anyone has a better idea how to do this then please share
Winner will receive... I have not thought this part through yet xD


Here's some example avatars from @JustV:





Also I can't decide what my profile should look like. I have this first one which I tried to make in the colours of Christmas (red and green), but it honestly looks more like a mango on the outside
And I also made the other white one that is more winter coloured. Which one do you think is better?

Love the idea of a competition!

I'm always more of a fan of light on dark designs, so prefer the top, but the bottom is maybe more thematic for Winter (love the icey color combo!)

@JJLemon18 maybe you can convince @JustV to make a new badge 😝😉😉

Ha, unfortunately my graphic design days have passed, but if anyone wanted to make a 200x200 badge, I'd be happy to use it!

I love this idea so much, I just actually took this photo just now as I realised I needed to upload a xmas picture for xmas season 🎄. So here's my submission (it's Rudy the reindeer, they say hi 🖐)

@Chloe234 ooh haha, will try my best! *goes to spam @JustV with messages until a new badge is made*

I have an idea! What if we use the winning avatar as the badge icon??

JJLemon18

Btw you guys know you can post as many images as you like here, and not just one?

And in terms of the competition, unless we get too many submissions (which I doubt) I can accept up to 3 submissions per person. So post as much as you like!

Sorry I'm kinda late with the competition. I have not forgotten about this thread! (I'm like the worst christmas elf ever xD)

Absolutely loving all the amazing profile pics!! (Even the ones not shared here) This place looks very different than it used to and I'm all for it! I definitely need a better profile pic myself haha.

I will try to set up the poll some time tomorrow


@River Lovely profile pic! Though I wanted to ask if you want me to include it in the competition or would you rather I don't?

Rose113

Its your choice as its your pic. But oki I will include it, and if you ever change your mind then I believe the mods can remove it.

Hiya. Im feeling absolutely horrible today and my mind is practically in another plane of existence lol.

If anyone wants to create the poll for the competition then please do, I would really appreciate it. I'm sorry about this.

Amy22

Hey @JJLemon18 you don't have to apologise for not creating a poll for the profile pic competition at all. If your not feeling your best, then you need to priortise some to yourself to rest and time until you feel better . Take as much time as you need, sending you a big hug .

JJLemon18

@Amy22 thank you so much though I don't want this thread turning into support lol, I was just explaining. And the reason I'm asking for someone else to do this is because we need enough time for people to vote, and preferably have a winner before Christmas Eve.
If nobody does it then I'll do it some time later. Not sure how much 'some time' is tho.

Amy22

Honestly no worries @JJLemon18 just wanted to check in with you, make sure your okay. If needed I could always do it maybe I can do polls.

JJLemon18

Thank you @Amy22 for checking in I'm feeling a bit better now, and Im currently travelling by car to Poland for Christmas yay! So I have a lot of spare time and I just posted the poll. (Though roaming may have costed me quite a bit haha)

Sending a very merry Christmas from France!

Btw @TheMix where on earth is your Christmassy profile image???
