I hope someone has time to work on this.

I used to have a holiday icon but I can't find it - so I thought what the heck, get a new one.

Simba in this pose:

I have a couple of ideas but I am open to your interpretations.

Idea 1: Christmas hat on his head, my name along the bottom in some kind of fancy/holiday looking script.
Idea 2: Hat again, but a Christmas presents around him and some clever way of including my name.
Idea 3: gold/sparkly halo above/on his head, my name along the bottom in gold/sparkly colors.

I tend to prefer image on top, name on bottom type setups, but I will try very hard not to be too picky about it.

Edit: Not worried about anything being overly animated or 'moving', just a note.
Edit2: I do have VIP status if that matters.

And with the name. It could use some sparkle, I'll see if I get around to adding it before Friday. If someone else wants to, feel free.

Much happier with the hat now.

Just in case you ever want it again, I kept copies of all the icons I made:

Shalis Thanks!

Wolfpaw, that was fast. I really do appreciate it.

Is it possible for you, or someone else to:

* Switch the colors on my name? (Red solid with white border)
* Remove the background? Or change the blue part? I'm just not sure if it served a purpose I was unaware of.

I'm not worried about adding any sparkle now. Those color changes and I think I'd be happy with it!

Edit: Um, not that I would turn down sparkles, lol.

Can do - will have to wait until later today though. I'll see about the background, IMO it needs something there to make the icon more interesting, but I can make a version with no background too (it's already masked that way).

No rush. How about we try other colors? I think I had more issue with the blue than the existence of a background. Thanks!

That's no problem - it is layered and masked so switching the background is a breeze. The current background is just a portion of the original image - thus the colors.

I take it you'd like a more christmas-ey background?

Sorry for not responding sooner, I had a long day yesterday! Yes, I think I was looking for Christmas-ey. It looks great. If you are happy with it, please submit it?
