Grinch Mode in Site Updates

(in case you are curious: no, I wouldn't normally be working on the site on Christmas Eve - but I'm stuck in the office for a few hours due to lack of vacation time, and there's really not much for me to do at the moment)
I understand that there are people who don't like their backgrounds messed with. And since I've been planning on adding it anyway when future customization options become available, you now have an option under Settings to uncheck the "Show customized backgrounds to me". So if you would like Santa and the snowman to go away, you now have that option.
Seasons greetings!

Thanks from all of us whose hearts are three sizes too small.

Oh, and thanks for the tweak you made in "Leave a comment"---greying out the box and spinning a busy circle makes a big difference. "OK, gotcha, I'm posting your comment, don't hammer the Leave Comment button again because I'm doing that already."

Glad you noticed that little detail. :)

I still choose to rage-click the button and then rage that it commented twice and then rage that nothing ever goes the way I want, but that's more of a design flaw in my genetic makeup than the site.

Friends don't let friends rage-click. Maybe we need an intervention feature. ;)

You know, it's funny, when I first got here all I could think about was how it didn't look like "mine". The longer I'm here the less appealing OD's customization seems especially once you introduced the dark theme (easier on my eyes). It will be nice to choose backgrounds and such but I'm not even sure if I'll use it at this point! Thank you for this site and all your hard work.
Happy Holidays! Now go relax with some egg nog!

I have a question too (doesn't need an answer right away though!). You have the books set up to appear in alphabetical order but for the numbers they count "down" meaning older years are on the top of the list while new ones are under them. Any way to reverse that so newer years appear at the top of the list?
Example of now:
2013 2014 2015
Example reversed:
2015 2014 2013
I didn't want to put it in suggestions since it's not really a "feature" but would make for easier navigation on a person's main box page. Thanks! :)

I'm sorry... but I'm shocked that you received complaints of this actually being a "problem." LOL!
Merry Christmas!

The festive background made me go "OOOoOOOO!!!" Hope you have an equally festive holiday, and are out of the office by now!

Happy Holidays!

What festive background?
BSC12MD ⋅ December 25, 2013
Is not variety the spice of life. I for one enjoy the different backgrounds on your website, I believe it shows somewhat the variety of personalities that are out there through personal design. However I do appreciate the effort it takes for you to design a website that gives us the choice of both.

I must've missed the festiveness but whatever it is/was, it sounds too awesome for people to be complaining. Someone needs a Christmas intervention.
