One new set of icons. Who doesn't love Uggs? ;)

( December 21, 2006 )

Hey everyone!!! Finally, a new update. I just added a new set of icons to the site and fixed the broken picture locations, so there are no more red x's. ;) I'm trying to make a layout right now too - Hopefully that will come out right. I'll let you know when that's up!

-- edit --

New layout is up !! * We also added an "Entry Photos" section so you can put pictures in your entries and make your Xanga even better. Check it out??

Peace, love, have a happy holiday!!

( December 15, 2006 )

Sorry that it's been so long!! But we've been caught up in a site where we're under codename & all - It's not a lyt site; it's something different. We`ll tell you about it later (maybe) but anyway our other site is opening tomorrow, so we're kind of busy with that.

Besides I think the lyts we have now are enough for you guys. ;)

( December 4, 2006 )

You guys unlocked "Soft Snowflakes." Now the only locked layout is Christmas Brilliance, but Claire will be working on the site today, so she might make a lyt after working on the other sections. =);<3

BTW:
- A Hot Chocolate trend has been added, you guys will love ittt.
-A gift idea for best friend, HER has been added <3

We've posted a new layout by Kelly; Claire's working on other stuff. This layout is unlocked basically just because you guys got us to 1oo subs & that made us happy, so we've got a new layout called Winter Wonderland. Check it out ?? :)

Peace, love, have a happy holiday.

( December 3, 2006 )

Keep those subs coming in guys !! * One new lyt, it's called "Snowy Silence." We're getting more and more subscribers everyday, so thank you veryyy much. (: The amount of subs is kind of slowing down, but we now have 95 subs; we're almost at 100! The "Soft Snowflakes" lyt is locked until we reach 1oo subscribers, so please, keep on subscribing! The "Christmas Light Brilliance" lyt is locked until we reach 11o subscribers. I will admit that "Christmas Light Brilliance" is not our best lyt, but just look at what we did to the lights. Aren`t they gorgeous? ;)

By the way, if you haven't noticed, we got a new song. The old Aly & AJ one was kind of becoming a bit unoriginal. :( But it is an adorable holiday CD, a great gift to someone who doesn't have an iPod. (The album name is Acoustic Hearts of Winter, just in case anyone needs to know that for some gift-buying information.)

Basically, thank you so much for the subs; they're really appreciated. ( Comments are quite nice as well. ) None of you really responded to our previous question, so we`ll pretty much just make our main focus on icons & lyts; We're not sure if that's what you want, but since you didn't give your feedback Claire & I are pretty much just doing whatever we feel like doing.

It actually snowed where we are on Thursday so we`re really into the winter spirit. It's freezing cold. Anyway it felt really good to have some white snow, even though it was only November. ;) So let it snow, let it snow, let it snow !!

I'm also working on some more lyts so expect more lyts tonight or tomorrow & Claire will be working on some stuff tomorrow too. :) So get ready for some more pretty lyts to make your holiday season on Xanga even better. <33 (P.S. - These lyts will be locked until we reach certain amts of subscribers. Come on, we know you guys can do it!)

Also, many of you have asked for a link to It's the Greatest Time of Year. Due to popular demand, we`ve put up a "Santa Songs" section where you will find the cutest Christmas songs for your site. Pleaseeeee read the beginning of the section before you take anything. Thanks. ;D

Peace, love, have a happy holiday.


( December 2, 2006 )

We now have eighty-eight subs. Good job guys. For the subs you gave us, we gave you two new lyts. (Holiday 2006 & Holiday Stars) Thank you guys for all of the support & keep subbing.

Question: What do you guys want more of? Lyts, crafts, or icons? Pick one so we know which section to focus on & leave us a cmt telling us which one you like best. Thankss.

&& answer to one commonly asked question: "Are you guys going to do a non-holiday site?" The answer is ... yes. We have the site name and we've done a couple things for it since about a week again, but not much is happening yet. This is our main focus right now, our after-holiday site is off to the side. We chic-ed up the stylesheet and made it more girly, but it's basically the same so you'll still have the stylesheet originality going on for your site if you use a lyt from there. But it`s going to be a cute site when it opens, but that's not happening for a long while since we`ve still got quite awhile 'til Christmas.

Your subs & props will be rewarded.
Peace, love, and have a happy holiday. <3

We will be back when we get 8o subs. =)
Currently we've got 73. Keep 'em coming.

( November 25, 2006 )

We are officially open - one day early, but still. We're open. :) We've got lots of layouts, but only a few have the codes offered - why? We need some subs. Show us some love ?? We know it sounds stuck-up and we apologize, but things take work. And we do tend to want to be rewarded. So please, some subs would be nice.
BTW: the let it snow, snowmen lyt is now available for use. :) We've reached 25 subscribers.

Meanwhile, remember not to jock or we will find you. Also, sister sites are displayed on the subscription module, we've labeled it "Santa's Little Helpers." :) You can apply but we're going to begin to accept only the best.

Please remember to subscribe and comment. <3 Tell a friend, too, it'd be appreciated.

Peace, love, have a happy holiday.

TREND TRADEMARKED. All images and CSS on this site belong to us. Don't even think about stealing it. The only thing you can take is goodies when we open, but those scream out credit so you`ll have to credit us. ( And do not redistribute those. Our site should be the only place where you find our stuff. )  Even the profile picture belongs to us, so don`t steal. The stylesheet was self-created, only our previous sites such as uptowncouture use this stylesheet. Stealing -- It's not hot, and it's not going to land you on Santa's "Good" List. That's pretty much it -- if you didn't understand, I'll sum it up for you: Don't jock. :)

All of these icons were created by us, but we did not take the photographs ourselves. Yet we still get the credit, we did the colourizing, cropping, and resizing.

A quick and easy way to add some holiday spirit into your entries. Some of these fades can be used as dates for the top of your entires (Example: "On the first day of Christmas" - December 1) and some can be placed  with icons or anywhere in the entry to add some colour. Credit isn't really needed, but it'd be nice. :) Fade requests can be made, just leave the requests in the first entry of this site. (Include text, color to begin with and color to end with, and font) We may not accept all requests, but we will try. ;)

Need a holiday tune for your site? Can't find one? No problem, we`ve got tons here! Note to other sites: Please don`t take our links. We searched for them and found out the way to get the actual song rather than the big ugly flash player on the site. This did take an amount of effort, so please do not take our links for redistribution. Find your own. We`re serious. It`s not just a code we copied, we had to search through the code for the URL, and then we had to add something to the URLs ourselves so once again, do not just take our links. ( Ignore the long lecture if you`re just putting a link on your personal site )
