It's that wonderful time of the year!
What's that? Christmas? The Holiday season? Winter?
Wrong on all accounts! I'm talking about the Christmasifying thread, of course!

The (un)Official Profile Christmasifying Thread 2022

Welcome, friends, to the 8th annual installment of the Christmasifying thread!

It's good to be back for my favourite Steamgifts "tradition". I skipped this year's Spookifying thread as I was too busy (and sick) during October, so I look forward to this year's event. Anyways, I digress! Grab yourself a cup of hot chocolate or some other sweet and tasty treat, and gather around the fireplace. I'll tell you the wonderful story of the magic of Christmasifying.

What is this all about?

I'm glad you asked! This is a fun little yearly event I've been doing for the past few years on Steamgifts. Right about when December comes along (usually on the 1st of December), I create this thread where anyone may request a "Christmasification", after which I will try to decorate your profile picture to give it a festive look - usually, this means giving your profile picture a Santa hat, but occasionally also some colourful lights, candy canes, snow, mistletoe, etc.

All you need to do is leave a comment on this thread requesting a "Christmasification" - no need to provide an image (unless you want a custom order), as I'll extract your profile image directly from your Steamgifts profile. I'll reply to your comment with the result afterwards, which you can use as your profile picture if you're pleased with the results.

Important details and guidelines:

1. To request a Christmasification, simply reply in this thread asking for one.
2. No need to attach an image (unless it's a special order) - I'll use your profile picture as the smaller format makes it easier anyway.
3. If you want a Santa beard, please request it. If not, request not to have one. No specifications means you'll leave it to my creativity.
4. Special orders or requests such as a beard does not guarantee you get one, as I can't guarantee it's possible.
5. Requests will be handled on a semi-first-come-first-served basis; Depending on volume, I may skip some users and potentially come back later to Christmasify them.
6. I can and will skip some profile pictures if I can't Christmasify them - but don't let that stop you from requesting anyway, of course! :D

Now, with all the boring details out of the way, I officially declare the Christmasifying Thread open to requests!

Don't forget to sync your account after changing to your new profile picture for it to show up on Steamgifts!
