I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow



I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

Everyone in the spirit now?

I'm surprised that no one has complained about it yet... I guess it really gets people in the holiday spirit.

In the event that you would like to turn it off, you can do so in your Profile Settings, below where you would enter in your vehicle information.

Happy Holidays!

For a minute I thought I had a graphics glitch...either that or my eyes were really having problems...

Love the flakes! :smile:

Reminds me that I need to exercise the 4wd before it really does snow.

Thanks for the holiday spirit!

Cheers-

I love the snow, just don't add Christmas carols in the back ground, I would be liable to turn the shot gun onto the laptop.

Well, at lease I can get a "White Christmas" here. I'll be in Vegas during Christmas, so I doubt I'll see snow! :biggrin:

@Envoy4Life, I have a Esxpresso Bronze Metallic Regal. The color is wicked when cleaned and buffed. But dirt and small scratches seem to take over the color when not so pristine. The tan interior color scheme only came with this color and white. And white was not on my list of favorites. BTW, you'll need to head out to one of the local meets sometime. The first 2012 meet is in the planning stages set to be staged at NAIAS. http://gmtnation.com/f48/michigan-winter-meet-284/ I know the group was also talking about a larger Midwest spring/summer meet. Keep an eye on the local forum.

FYI, I liked the snow, but it was wearing out my fan clutch (oh, wrong platform) and hijacking my CPU. Thanks for making a setting to turn it off.

CPU was running pegged at 100%. Closed GMTNation tab and it dropped to 7%. New tab with GMTN and fan takes off again.
Turned off snowflake setting and CPU slowed down after a few seconds (first ramp down shown). Used browser history to go back to forum page and, bingo, fan and snowflakes again. Reloaded the page (to update settings) and, boom, back down to 7%.

FWIW, Windows 2000 (shut up, I know, its way down on THE LIST), Firefox 3.6, 1.7GHz P4, 768Mb RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 6200 w/ 256Mb.

I'm guessing that snow was making my system cold and the CPU/fan were hard at work on melting duty.
