Brajeshwar (December 19th, 2007, 4:58 am)
Ah! At the right time. I was looking for some fresh new Christmas related stuffs to sprinkle to my site!
Chris Vincent (December 19th, 2007, 4:59 am)
As usual you’ve been able to provide quality resources for those of whom haven’t been able to spice up their own website with a bit of christmas cheer. I’m sure that everyone will have fun with these in the next week and they’ll be popping up everywhere!
Yako (December 19th, 2007, 5:49 am)
Perfect Timing, thanks ppl
Deron Sizemore (December 19th, 2007, 5:51 am)
Very nice icons there! Some very talented people around this internet thing.

Great article - thanks. Not too short, not too long.
Well done again…
Koesper (December 19th, 2007, 6:23 am)
And now perhaps some christmas fonts?
Like ‘Snowdrift’ or ‘Candies’ etc…
but then without the spammy links you find on other sites :-)
Robert (December 19th, 2007, 6:42 am)
I didn’t find Link [vladstudio.com] here. He’s the “master” of wallpapers and designed some nice ones for Christmas. Plus: on Link [iconbuffet.com] they have lots of season related icons free for commercial use. Perhaps you’ll take a look :)
Geekissimo (December 19th, 2007, 7:23 am)
Thanks for the link :)

As usual, Wow! This is a great list. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.
Wedding Professional (December 19th, 2007, 9:38 pm)
Adding Christmas icons and themes to your site is such a good idea. I wish I had the time to spruce up the site with a bit of Christmas spirit. I did this last year and users loved it. I noticed bounce rates decrease when I had the Christmas logos up, expecially in the wedding sector!
Thanks for a great post once again!
Valentina Olini (December 19th, 2007, 10:43 pm)
