If you use the 'default' theme you should have noticed a slight Christmas look on the forum - this is our Christmas theme. Hope you like it.
However, there are plenty of other themes available to you - just select an alternative using the drop-down list at the bottom right of the screen.
Merry Christmas!

Many thanks Andrew, when I see the Christmas theme I know it is time to start my Christmas planning and begin writing the cards. 
And the Countdown timer! I had forgotten all about it, but it will, again be used every day, my starter activity for EVERY lesson!

Bahh humbug - I'm off back to the boring theme!
Although, I do like the way it gives Isaiah Berlin a nice wooden frame...

I love the 'mahogany' feel of the theme and that it is a bit more subdued than what my students think decorations should look like.
Oh, and 16 days to my birthday too.

How do you use the countdown timer as a starter activity?

I've lost the christmas theme! I wanted to see the other themes but I don't have a drop down menu on the right hand side (am I being dense?) just one on the left, and that only gave me IP Board or Lo Fi so I clicked the IP board and the theme went and I can't get it back. What do I do? I want to be christmassy!!!

The option should just be there - at the bottom left of any page. Could you try logging out and the logging in again? Nothing has been done to remove the theme - honest.

It happened to me too.

When I came in and met the Christmas theme for the first time I found I had to log in again, and when I did so, no Christmas theme!
One has to go to the bottom left of the page and select the Christmas Club (09) Import skin from the drop-down menu.
And now TOTALLY Christmassy!

Logged out xmas theme reappeared, logged back in, xmas theme disappeared again.
I only have 3 options on the drop down menu- IP.Board, -History Teacher's Discussion Forum and IP. Board Lo-fi.
Ah well, its not the end of the world, but I did quite like it!

Let's just say I am pleased we have the option to de-select the Christmas theme. Ba humbug.
Merry Christmas.
