You're not the only Scrooge. I've been thinking the same thing. Time for something a little "warmer" maybe?

You can go to your control panel and at the very very bottom
on the left you can change your skin.

Im using StarSpangled right now but their are 4 skins to select from.

True, Mike, but since the board still doesn't log you in automatically (hope that gets fixed soon) we still have to see the outdated (northern) Christmas theme every time we log on. It would be so much nicer if we didn't have to see it at all.

The Russian Orthodox Church celebrates Christmas on January 7 in accordance with the old Julian calendar following a 40 day Advent beginning November 28. Not only are you a Scrooge, but you're culturally insensitive. :P Just kidding! I grew up in Moscow, PA and had several Russian Orthodox friends. Let's not deprive them of a Christmas skin.

Счастливого Рождества!

I can log in automatically. Log in. Bookmark the Surface Interval page after you logged in. Well, that's how I did it. :P

Make it an option, but not the default. Besides, putting snow on the skin is culturally insensitive to everyone not living in the far north.

Be glad you didn't have the problem I have! While Caetllonn was visiting we discovered that many of the buttons, toggles and links do not work for me because I use IE 5 instead of a newer version. I couldn't change the skin from the default. I also can't use the special text features (bold, etc.) either. I have to insert the code myself. To make any changes, I go to the library where they have a newer version of IE (and a high speed connection).

For those of you who live in warmer climes (I guess I do too), I feel your pain about the snowflakes. It was downright scary to see them on my computer. In fact, I had to add a sweatshirt just to keep warm while reading SD!

No, my dear... I didn't mean "ME!" You discovered I couldn't change the skin. I discoverd long before you arrived that I couldn't use the text tools, My Admin link and a few others. Remember? I did indeed mean "WE." I know it hurts to see your name associated with mine, but that's the way it was... and you were there. Just teasing Caetllonn and any others that might interpret this as a nasty post... it isn't. I'm just not THAT kind of guy (am I, Caetllonn? Oops, on second thought don't answer that!).
