Call it Christmas, or Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa, or Festivus but get your members involved! </p>
<p>You can change your background image, add some snow, holiday lights, a GIF or image, spruce up or add a slider, change your header image, add holiday music or video. How about a contest?</p>
<p>Ning <em>used</em> to offer a site where we could create our own gift cards to send to members. Kyryl is there any way this could be opened again??? <a href="http://holiday.ning.com/">http://holiday.ning.com/</a></p>
<p>Some past discussions are shown below and I'm sure there are more, although I'm uncertain if all the links are functional. <strong>Let's hear <span style="text-decoration: underline;">your</span> ideas!</strong><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/559242?profile=original" target="_self"><img src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/559242?profile=RESIZE_320x320" class="align-right" width="200"></a></p>

Happy holidays :-) updated 12-04-14https://creators.ning.com/forum/topics/tip-n3-0-n2-0-let-s-hang-some-christmas-lights-css-happy2013-12-12T20:17:58.000Z2013-12-12T20:17:58.000ZGeorge H.

<p>The lights will be hanging from the bottom of your Ningbar, see image below.<br> If you would like to move it up or down just change the 30px in the bottom line of this code. You can also change the background Url to replace the Christmas lights with your own.</p>
<p>Just place this code in your "design studio CSS box".</p>
