While those of you in the Northern Hemisphere are looking forward to a white Christmas, the rest of us need to cool down a bit.

....and a Merry X-mas to you in the warmer parts of the southern hemisphere. I'll just freze to death here in Denmark.
Only for the fun of IT.

Can you post a slightly larger image so we can see more of the terrific detail.
You might experiment with some beads of water on the bottle and glass to make it look more icy cold.

great image.
It's mulled ale we will be
needing here shortly.
Brian.
Downunder, with the exchange rate as it is, maybe you should consider spending Christmas in South Africa. Just think of it — temperatures in the low 30's (Centigrade, mid-eighties Farenheit) and mostly clear and sunny days.
Gary, here's a (slightly) bigger version, just to prove that there is very little "teriffic detail". Oh yeah, and I added some condesation. Does it work?
Brian, thanks. What in the world is "mulled ale"? If we both speak the Queen's English, why is it so different? [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Mike.
1 pint brown ale
6 inch cinnamon stick
4 cloves
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon brandy OR lemon rind
A pinch of ginger to taste.
Heat together for thirty minutes
strain & reheat.
Makes one pint.
ARRR ARRR me arties will warm the cockles
of your arts.

Lekker illustration, Flyboy! Enjoy a couple of those for me!
I spent the Christmases of 1976 and 1977 in South Africa (Phalaborwa, Transvaal)- thoroughly loved living in that beautiful country. As an American from Florida, the warm weather works for me year round!
As for the Crown beer, there is a Crown beer (at least, they call it beer!) sold in Korea, but its not exactly a top of the line pilsner! I was stationed there for 18 months and had a few occasions to sample the local refreshments!
Totsiens!

Dankie, Gary. I'm glad I'm not in Phalaborwa right now. It's HOT up there!
