Holiday/ Special Occasion Graphics

From this day forward, I'll be trying to change the header image to indicate oncoming Holiday traditions. As you can see, I'm not particularly good at it but practice may help over time. If you experience slow downs it shouldn't be due to the graphic unless you're connecting using dial up.

BTW, I know the one up there looks like crap but it took close to 6 hours to find the graphics and paste them together in Flash. The image size is a small as I can make it for an animated gif of that size. I wanted to make the header flash but for some reason my template wouldn't except the .swf file extension even though I edited it in the theme.php file. I still have no idea why :oops:

Anyway, I know the graphic loox like crap but it will be down later today so I decided to leave it for now.

Why do you think it looks crappy? I think it is very cute!

The resolution is poor in the interest of filesize and theres an obvious transitional phase between the girlwitch and the rest of the header.

I didn't think to make a transition panel until the project was virtually complete and unfortunately it will take a lot of time to make one. I'll do it for the next holiday header and it will be a template for all holidays after that.
