    [​IMG] I just noticed the string of lights below the "Sorcerer's Place Forums" banner on the board pages, and I was wondering who put them up. Very weird.

    Those of you who aren't seeing the changes; clear your browser's cache. Both the site and the boards have been decorated a bit. ;)

    The lights were a spur of the moment thing I came up with yesterday. The smilies alone were a bit too little, and most other things would be too much, so this is somewhere in between.

    Tal puts up the Christmas decorations every year for those of you new here.

    Do I get to hang the angel on the tree top?

    Wow. My computer must thrive off the cache. Only just now did it actually load a new picture with the Christmas lights. And even after that, I had to force-refresh in order to see the beloved Santa smileys once again.

    Yeah it's pretty sweet, I really liked it. Seriously the reason I joined back then was because I liked the decoration, and that cool D&D christmas song that was on the main page.

    Way to go Tal!

    I like it too. I think those little christmas lights at the top of the page put me more into the spirit then anything that is going on around in my community.
