[edit] Trivia

  • Clicking the "back" button always leads to the winter-themed Main Page 16.

[edit] Remarks

  • Instead of the music repeating in a movie clip (as in most areas on the site), the whole Flash file loops. This causes a short gap in the music, and it will also cause all the Easter eggs to reset, including the contrast.
  • According to the Decemberween card Easter egg, The Cheat has paws.
  • Everyone in the holiday card is wearing a sweater, including The Cheat.
  • The Bad Graphics Ghost is grey rather his usual green. This is probably because he is on the Compy 386, which has white text, rather than the Tandy 400's green text. Also, the ghost turns a different shade of grey as you change the contrast for the Compy.
    • The Bad Graphics Ghost's hat is not affected by the contrast knob.
  • The shadows/reflections of the lights are not affected by changing the contrast.
  • In the Bad Graphics Ghost Easter egg, not all of the Bad Graphics Ghost wipes off the left side of the computer screen. It vanishes right before the right side of it hits the left side of the computer screen.
  • This is the only Strong Bad Email menu not to include any actual links to the Emails.
Almost orange...

[edit] Goofs

  • The outline of the orange and blue candy cane is not completely colored in. A piece of it is still gray (as is its reflection).
