Fabulous job decorating the tree GT! I'm proud of all of you!
BEHOLD THE GT CHRISTMAS TREE
( unlimited commercial use) Like in years past, the point of this thread is to decorate the Christmas tree and see how we all use our talents with clip art to make this bare tree look beautiful! Here's how it works:- If you want to decorate the tree, make a post stating that you are decorating.
- Set your timer for 30 minutes and get to work! Save the most recently updated tree on your computer (right click, save image as, chose folder, save!), then open any image editing program you have or want to use. Paint, GIMP, photoshop, or whatever.
- Get creative! Add a string of lights, or a present, a star, an ornament, whatever! You can make it pixel by pixel on paint or find a free to use image online to add! (Please be nice and don't cover half the tree though).
- Once you finish, see if your program can save your image as a .PNG, as that will retain the best quality. Although we want to avoid .JPG as much as possible, if you are stuck to only .JPG, then just upload it as the lesser quality and a member on here will graciously increase the quality again. I don't want anyone feeling left behind just because they only have an older version of Windows Paint.
- Upload the image to an image hosting website (I recommend tinypic) (others are imageshack, photobucket, etc.)
- Copy the direct url, then modify your post stating you are decorating, and add the tree via [ img ] [ / img ] (image tags) or the WYSIWYG editor.
- Watch your addition to the tree shine with glory.
- Profit!
Some notes:- Please don't decorate the tree if someone else has claimed the spot first. Wait the 30 minutes patiently. If after 35 minutes at the most the decorator hasn't come back, then go ahead and post saying you will decorate. Hopefully confusion will not pursue and feeling won't get hurt!
- If someone posts a .JPG version of the tree, instead of getting angry at them for "ruining it", just take their modification and do your best to crop it into the last updated high quality version so everyone can be included.
- You can comment on each other's additions to the tree! We can have discussions about what ideas we have to add or whatever. But if you want to argue about if Santa is real or if God exists or if Firefox is better than Internet Explorer, please do so in another thread. Pointlessly debating about such topics on the Internet do not need to intermingle in this thread.
- Have fun! Don't be a Grinch! Even if you don't believe in God and hate Christmas, have a try on this graphical challenge for the month of December. When else can you say you added stuff to a tree on the Internet?
That's it! I hope you will all enjoy this. I look forward to seeing everyone's imagination come to work!

I'm decorating.I'm not sure how I did. I'm no photoshop expert. If you want a better angel, feel free to outdo me!

Working on it now! Also, saved it as PNG when I right click saved. Crappy I know. Someone can touch up Slendy if they want. Omg, so that's crappy.... Attachments:

I like the contrast of the dark and disturbing figure of slenderman, the cute innocence of the bird, and the holy elegance of the angel.

It's just not complete without a Talk Dark Figure. Tis could be said for Jack Skellington too. Which Slendy could go both ways. Hahahahahahahaa.
