Anyone working on an AmigaOS4 Xmas theme?

Subject says it all, chrimbo theme anyone? pretty please?

Also I seem to remember that there's a program from long ago that you could run on your workbench which would do snowflakes over your screen. Does anyone remember it or am I going senile?

EDIT:

Ah, not going senile after all, There's...

Hopefully, one will work with OS4. Will try tonight.

@Mikey_C

I had that on windblows only...

What's about an Amigans.net XMas theme ?

@AmiGame

Yeah, I know, I know, but we are short on admins, we miss HNL_DK a lot

@Mikey_C

So what am I, chopped liver?

@orgin

You are the greatest site admin in the world, but even you are not god, you got other responsibilities now, you can't give this site 100% of your time now.

Somethings are waaay more important than an Amiga web portal

@Mikey_C

Although all true ;) It is still the case that I'm the one who put the Christmas theme together and probably am the only one who can activate it at this point so I don't see what you need hnl_dk for in this matter

@orgin

We are not worthy!

Besides, I miss the guy

@Mikey_C

How about this for now:

The old OS3.5 Christmas theme works on OS4 as well IIRC. It gets irritating after about two minutes though

@Mikey_C

And what about an Xmas meal, or are none of us in a User Group anymore?

@Rudei

Xmas meal is this sunday. You and Chris are both welcome, I thought you were both on the ANT mailing list?

The meal is pizza, we are having it delivered to the Vestry, its gonna be a big attendance and a great atmosphere, there's even a possibility of having to do an A1200 into new tower rebuild and then add OS4 on to it too.

Should be a load of fun. Hope to see you both there.

@Chris

Cheers Chris me 'ol fruit

Nice man, he's a very nice man, a very, very nice man!

Back to the topic: I think OS3.9 (or 3.5) had such a thing.
Bells, Whistles, Snow on Workbench, Animated Icons,
all the stuff

edit: I'm too slow :-/

Christmas is a hude global warming supporter. Please keep it up. We like Tropical weather in Sweden :) More lights, more electricity, more christmas.

Hi @Kicko

Gives a whole new meaning to the expression - Bah, humbug!

@Chris

bah it isn't what we though it was, sure you get snowflakes on its own screen, but not on WB

Oh well, so much for a festive WB. btw none of the old aminet ones worked.

@Mikey_C

Makes me wonder

would a interactive background be possible on OS4?

I once had a hack installed on 3.x (2.x?) where the grey
background was changed at one point to look like a "ripped
open" part of a machine with moving gears.
Looked pretty cool (but as it was a hack and not very stable
i discarded it soon after)

Question is, would this kind of thing be possible in a
"clean" manner?

This would open up thousands of possibilties...i mean,
just think of some kind of gears sticking out of the
background, mov...

...i'll shut up

@Mikey_C

What time is the meeting Mikey?

@Rudei

1 till 5. We'll be killing the Pizza hut delivery employees by about 1:20 (placing orders)

@All

What about something to update all WB Icons to a XMas like theme (maybe also the background itself...) and automatically switching it back to previous theme after Christmas ?

// BTW, Start also working on an Easter theme so it's ready on time ! Or would that be the next AOS4 Update ?
