It's 'bout that time boys, get yer hats loaded loaded up :dance:.
I know what you must be thinking "but break, it's still goddamn November"
Well fuck you this is the internet, and we all know that Christmas season starts approximately .25 seconds after you're done eating thanksgiving dinner.
I mean really who doesn't want a snazzy red fuzzy hat over their anime character that just screams "I'm ready santa, you fat lazy prick." Now for the past three years or so it's always been the tradition to put the standard red and white fuzzy hat on your shit, well we can do christmas lights, top hat, elven hats, ornaments or what ever the hell your little brain can imagine!
While I have my limited photoshop abilities there's no way I have enough time to get all of the requests finished myself, so if you are a photoshoper and can help just fulfill some of these requests and then you can pretend you're cooler then all of the other users (*cough* gold members *cough*). After you have completed a request please PM me and tell me so I can take the name off of the list, if you would like to be added to the list please just post in this thread.

Hey! Check this shit out, Teh_Cheese made this awesome christmas light tutorial for your fatass, check this shit out dog.
[QUOTE]If anyone wants to put lights in their avatar, here's how.
First, save this image [URL]http://www.nephi.utah.gov/Christmas_lights.png[/URL]
Second, open it in photoshop/image editing program. Copy the red orange and blue lights onto your avatar.
Transform (ctrl-t in photoshop) it to fit the avatar size. Make sure it's on a separate layer from the avatar itself.
Change the hue (ctrl-u in ps) of the first and last bulb to a color of your choice, must be the same color, so you can't change them both at the same time. Change hue for the middle bulb.
Save the avatar, preferably with 1 in it's name. Now change the hue of the 1st and 3rd bulb to the color of the middle bulb, (ie, if the middle bulb was blue and the outsides were red, you would change the outsides to blue) and then change the hue of the middle bulb to the color of the 1st and 3rd. Save it with the same file name as the first avatar, only with 2 at the end.
Then, download APNG edit for firefox (only) ([URL]https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5519[/URL]), and put the two frames together at a delay of 500 ms. Save it and then upload it to FP/ any other forum!
I hope you got it working, I don't have time to take pictures, so I guess you're gonna have to stick with my text.

Merry Christmas from Teh_Cheese here's a second tutorial because he's so full of Christmas Spirit

[QUOTE]HOW TO: Easily add a santa hat to your avatar!
NOTE: This tutorial is meant for beginners and photoshop users, sorry GIMP/Paint.net users, I don't use those programs!
You will need this as a starting/testing avatar for this tutorial [URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/startingavatar.png[/URL]
Firstly, we are going to need a avatar. I'm going to start with my bleeding face guy.
[URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/1.png[/URL]
Secondly, we need a santa hat. I'm going to use #3 ([URL]http://dclips.fundraw.com/zobo500dir/Hats-45.jpg[/URL]).
Now with #3, it isn't transparent, and we need to fix that. So right click the magic wand button and select "Quick Selection Tool"
[URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/2.png[/URL]
It works exactly like the wand tool except you don't need to hold shift and usually isn't as jaggy.
So select around the hat until every thing that's why except what's within the lines, is selected.
It should look like this
[URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/3.png[/URL]
Now press backspace and it should be transparent (however if you copied it and it has a white layer behind it, delete the white layer)
Now right click on the image and press "Inverse selection"
After you do that it should look like this ([URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/4.png[/URL]).
Now copy that and then paste it into your avatar picture (which should be open)
[URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/5.png[/URL]
You'll notice that it's quite big and doesn't fit your avatar. So press control and t and a box/rectangle should come up with boxes at each corner (make sure you are zoomed out enough to see the whole box/rectangle)
[URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/6.png[/URL]
Now center the box and click a corner to resize it to your avatar's size, make sure the hat is completely in there and not stretched. You can hold shift to keep it's original dimensions, but you'll probably have to resize it differently to fit the head afterwords. Click another tool and click "Apply"
If you do that correctly, it will look like this;
[URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/7.png[/URL]
Obvious it won't fit the head at that size, so we will need to do more resizing.
[URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/Resizing.avi[/URL] (sorry, it wouldn't convert into a gif for some reason)
Alright, now that you've watched that way-too-long video, you are pretty much done!
[URL="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORIAL/8-FINISHED%21.png"]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99594/TUTORI...INISHED%21.png[/URL]
Rules for the hats: Face must be facing pretty forward, otherwise it will look wrong.
Ask me if you have any questions!

You can actually with the power of APNG.

Isn't it hard to do decent APNGs?
[QUOTE=DiavelZzZ;43009551]Can i reserve the F15 for me maybe for a later day of this years christmas?

No sorry :(
[QUOTE=Kannata;43009668]Isn't it hard to do decent APNGs?[/QUOTE]
With the file size limit increased for blues it [i]theoretically[/i] shouldn't be taxing at all for that one.
Though I haven't made any in ages due to gold.
Only Firefox recognises apngs.
Other browsers just display the first frame.
Just added snow, since my christmas mood is always ruined by companies starting Christmas themed advertising early October.
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;43009736]Only Firefox recognises apngs.

There're plug-ins for that.
I only mentioned APNGs as a possibility because he has Firefox as his browser.
How is my avatar? My friend did it for me.
