Just because I'm not really active on SG anymore, you thought I wouldn't fulfill my duty as profile picture decorator? Wrong you are!


The (un)Official Profile Christmasifying Thread 2023


Welcome to the 9th yearly installment of the Christmasifying Thread!

That's right, it's been 8 years of this SG tradition, still going strong to this day! The SG veterans might remember the first thread(s) all these years ago, regular users may remember last year, and anyone who is new to this... welcome, my friends! Whether you're new to this or not, join us on this fun little event again this year.


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!

Did a few different styles because I wasn't sure if the original stylized design was clear enough with the two-tone colouring.

Every year you create cool new avatars for everyone - thank you :)

Changed avatar this year, I think the fire circle can be changed into snowy wind circle(like Santa's sleigh does snowy lines in air in old cartoons) and a santa hat for the raccoon.
If you have a better idea, be my guest :)

The framing might make mine difficult to do but I'd still love a Christmas Kashiwagi if possible. :D

Maybe decorating the border itself is the way to go? I love these and look forward to this thread every year. Thank you!

Still using and loving mine from a couple years ago! This and your spookifying threads motivated me to try and make other themed versions of my pic for different times of the year although I'm no where near as good at it lol. So far I've made a valentine's day one, a mardi gras one, and a generic spring themed one. Going back to my generic pic was just too sad XD

Just wanted to bump this thread so more people can get awesome christmasified profile pics!

Thank you for this wonderful event. It's very nice of you to do such nice things. I can't imagine what my profile picture would look like with a Christmas hat. If you have the opportunity and desire to make one, I would be happy. 🐥🎅😊

Wow, this is amazing thank you so much for doing this for the community! Not sure how one would go about decorating my avatar but I'd love to get in the Christmas mood early this year. On a somewhat related note, this thread inspired me to look up and start playing this nostalgic goodie later on in the afternoon.
