Theme
Christmas Time Games + A Star Wars Christmas
Meaning
  • Anything from any game, As long as it has a Christmas theme.
  • Or anything Star Wars related, as long as it has a Christmas theme.
Contest Specific Rules
  • Christmas Time Games avatars must actually be from a game, Game screenshots, Game art, or using objects/etc from the game in your submission.

    If your Avatar doesn't fit in the theme then we'll tell you.
Your submission fails to meet any of those requirements.

A drawn stick figure is too vague to fit into any of the themes, if he wants to have a stick figure avatar then he will need to take a screenshot of his stick figure ingame and edit that so it will at least fit into the Games and possibly the Star Wars theme as well. :wink:

It's probably just some script that cycles through a stockpile of avatars every time a page is loaded.
