I for one am glad to have my .xar shared in a finished file. :)
:) This cat may look a bit familiar, Gare...yes, inspired by your cat, Smudge! I thought maybe you could use it for a bit of decoration near the tree on the background if you'd like. Resize any way you prefer, the ribbon is a separate group so it breaks apart, you can add other bows or decorations to it.
Yes, it's fine to have my .xar files shared too in this group project. :)
:) Here's a teddy bear -- small for on the tree or there's a larger one with different texture fabric for under the tree...
Fun thread! Here's my contribution. I was amazed that you can still buy Christmas Tree clip-on candle holders!

I will get back to adding the ornaments tomorrow, promise. Maya and everone else were too generous! :)

I didn't want to put the teddy bear and the cat-in-the-box on the tree, so I thought they'd make nice presents under the tree.
By the way: Smudge is our long-hair calico cat, who likes to eat plastic and tries to fit in boxes half her size. I sent the photo to Maya as a goof, but darn if she didn't illustrate (in Xara) the essence of our little pussy cat:

Can I get a guest tutorial out of your next year, Maya?
Just incredible spirit and beautiful illustrations, all of you! My goal is to get our finished tree into the Outsider in January. How hard can that be? I have Nova's email! :)
A wonder, truly a wonder to behold...all of us working toward a common goal.
Thrilled,
Gary
Egg? I have a present for you. A new avatar:

Meant to be "light", not offensive in the least. I know 3D stuff can be a little hyper-real, and thus hyper-ugly, but this just came to me, and I asked around before daring to post it. Members thought you might like it.

Gary,
I love that and thanks for the image. No offense in any way. No need to ask around either, I don't usually take offensive other than time wasters and trolls :)
However please don't be offended if I don't use it. I've used the same avatar on TG, plus other forums for quite a few years. I find that I can filter forums via avatars much quicker if the user retains the same image. Change it & I take a while re-associating it to an individual. For example Scotty, in the post above yours, has had that same avatar for a very long time. I can instantly recognise it's a post by him because it remains constant. Bill used to change his avatar but over the past few years settled on the Batman logo, and whilst he did variations you instantly knew it was a post by Bill.
It's a matter of choice. In a similar manner Cloud has recently requested his username was changed, and for the life of me I can't remember his old one now, but I have noticed on reading old threads the content refers to his old username which now has no relevance to his new username, which for a visitor could be quite confusing. No offence intended Cloud.
Perhaps as my post has nowt to do with the original thread you may wish to split it?
I'm not moving the post, Egg. As long as you like it and accept it in the spirit in which it was intended, it's all good...it's a gift, man. Souls do this sort of stuff around this time of year. And that comes round robin to our tree decoration—in what spirit are we decorating it? :)
No problem with not using it as an avatar; never presumed you'd change just because I laid some egg art on you!
It just sort of happened in my imagination, and then I realized you might make more relevant and creative use of it than I.
Love the animation. When it hatches, you're gonna have scrambled egg.

You are
