[[File:TSW logo christmas.png|250px|right]]
G'day everyone. I know it's jumping the gun a bit, but while we're on the subject of [[Forum:Halloween Logo|logo variations]], what does everyone think about my proposal for a logo for Christmas? I started working on this when LiR introduced his proposal for the Halloween logo (click link to see what I'm talking about), so I thought I could put in a proposal for a Christmas one. Ho ho ho...?

:Relaying advice from [[User:Blue12porcupine|Blue12porcupine]]: "Yep, the red is way too bright. You need to tone it down a bit." She commented that it looked a bit like "Valentines". I personally think it looks too much like a "girl game" wiki. A darker shade of red will probably do. --I am [[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] [[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF"><sup>Talk to me!</sup></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F"><sub>See what I have done</sub></span>]] 21:38, December 12, 2014 (UTC)

==Ending the theme==
When should we remove the Christmas theme? -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] • [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] • [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 05:03, December 19, 2014 (UTC)

::I was thinking about keeping it until the end of the month, but December 27 seems reasonable.

:::I suggested December 27 after looking at our Halloween design,and how the thrills of Halloween faded within a day, and the design seemed to have lost its appeal. As the holiday spirit seems to die quickly after the big day, it doesn't make sense to keep it up any longer than needed, but taking it down the day after seems a bit... wrong.
 
::: On an unrelated note, I did once leave Christmas decorations out for three years in a row. Seemed a bit weird when I woke up to it being Christmas every day in July. --I am [[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] [[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF"><sup>Talk to me!</sup></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F"><sub>See what I have done</sub></span>]] 15:16, December 21, 2014 (UTC)
 
::::I don't really feel festive this holiday, and I also didn't celebrate Halloween. Actually, I don't even enjoy celebrating special days at all. When you said holiday spirits die quickly, I don't really sense it because... I don't even have that feeling from the beginning! If we keep the theme even until January, it's okay to me, albeit it will be thematically incorrect. :p [[User:Nikel23|'''<span style="color:#007FFF; text-shadow: #ACE5EE 0 4px 4px;">Nikel</span>''']] [[User talk:Nikel23|<span style="color: #30D5C8 ; text-shadow: #00FFEF 0 4px 4px;"><sub>''Talk''</sub></span>]] <sub>–</sub> [[The Sims Wiki:Featured Media/Voting|<span style="color:red ; text-shadow:#E97451 0 4px 4px;"><sub>''Vote!''</sub></span>]] 15:30, December 21, 2014 (UTC)
 
:::::It seems everyone agrees that '''December 27th''' is the day in which festive theme ends. [[User:Auror Andrachome|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome|talk]]) 16:23, December 21, 2014 (UTC)
==Conclusion==
Christmas and the New Year have both passed, and I'm currently in the process of reverting the theme back to what it was. Therefore, we're done here (until next year!) Thanks for all your input. {{WHsig|07:02, January 1, 2015 (UTC)}}
