longer then that but not as long as easter was my vote.
i have a rule and it is simple
leave them up the same number of days after christmas that you put them up before christmas.
that makes sure you cover both sides equaly

It would be cool to leave it up til Easter. It would be like the Elvis Song, if every day was Christmas. We could capture the feeling all year round. I say go for it, leave them up.

Christmas has to end sometime. If it were year round, it wouldn't be special. Besides, now you'll have an excuse to make a template for EVERY holiday (Including my birthday, riiiight?
)

Next holiday is Valentine's day, but sooo short lived. So is St Patty's day. The next one is probably Easter. I agree with Joe, keep it till the 25th of Jan, we ain't missing any good holidays (Unless u count Chinese new year). OMG! Spruce it up with red lanterns and dragons! I'll go for that!

I'll do something for our new year (just add something to the current) then I can change it for the chinese new year, then after that back to normal till Easter.

Don't bother doing New Years (chinese too) Its only one day and you just forget about it the next day. Then its back to school/work.

Ya, put in red borders with black dragons and shining gold lanterns. It would look cool. Many people go for that too. I'm not even Chinese but I still look foreward to seeing what the next year's animal will be. Year of the monkey (2004) sucked, but that's because it's opposite my sign (the tiger), which explains alot. But that would look soooo awesome. Better than making the website look red and pink with inflatable hearts for Valentines day

New years I'll do something, the thing is to release it at 12:00 and keep it for the whole day. But it will basically be a change to this layout, like in the trees I might put "2005" or something. Valentines day and all that is pointless to do though. the next will be Easter. I usually put 3 Ts for Iceteks and make it look like crosses.

No, we should not keep the decorations up. Like Furball said, the decorations wouldn’t be special anymore.
Hey, who’s that with Santa? I just noticed a second person in the sleigh.

Yeah he's having an affair. But this is santa a few days after, when Ms Clause found out:
He's not too happy.

Woah, I figured I'd gradually take them down, so I put the default css back without realizing I had the logo in there too so it looked weird so I ended up taking it all down at once.
It looks so bare now. Oh well we'll get used to it again. I'm still keeping my sig for a bit though.

Ya, i know. WTF was that? I don't even remember Christmas. It just kind of swooped over me this year. I guess I wasn't festive enough this year.
