Tis the season to be jolly, and although my health isn't very jolly, all your profile pics definitely are! Sorry I was meant to do this much sooner but life be doing what life does best, so yea...

Loving all the submissions and the Christmassy atmosphere you all created! Though as the title suggests, I've set up this poll so we can vote for our favourite avatar! (Not to be confused with Avatar the movie)
The winner being crowned with "Best Christmas Avatar 2023" and will be given a very exclusive badge! (No promises)

(I assumed all those who posted their images in the other thread want to take part so those are the ones I've included. If I missed any then please let me know so I can ask TheMix to add it)

Here are the submissions:

In the meantime I will politely bully ask @JustV to make a badge for the winner. I'm thinking setting the badge icon to the winner's submission? That way the winner basically made their own badge!
What do you all think?

    Me too! Such a great idea! Loving all the Christmassy avatars :)
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Well done @Chloe234 and to all the runners up well done for taking part this has been very fun to do. We should do something similar again next Christmas as I really enjoyed uploading a Christmas avatar on here. I forgot to vote but saw the results apologies I didn't vote I been procrasinating and forgetting to log into TheMix lately due to being busy and doing stuff with family irl. So sorry about that 😂. Next time I shall make sure to vote.
    Just a person who likes pop culture and films

    Congratulations @Chloe234! All the avatars are amazing and thanks @JJLemon18, such a fun festive idea :)
  • JJLemon18JJLemon18 Posts: 2,104 Boards Champion
    Thanks y'all, but this wasn't actually my idea. It was @cc_ilaria who came up with the idea for a best avatar competition (thanks for the idea btw!) and since I was the one posting the thread for avatars I thought I'd do the competition too :)
