Of course, I'm all ISO Latin 1, but whatever, I'm simple that way. posted by mazola at 12:39 PM on December 15, 2009
This link does not contain any Unicorn Xmas Trees. Fortunately, I was only confused for a moment and was alone at the time. Clearly, I spared myself the embarrassment of not knowing what Unicode is and substituting the closest-to-it word in my mind...
Oh. Damn. posted by wg at 12:43 PM on December 15, 2009
Also, and I may be unpopular for saying this, but it needs the unicode swastikas--both 卐 and 卍 so you can have a Nazi Xmas or an old fashioned Vedic Xmas. posted by Burhanistan at 12:50 PM on December 15, 2009 [1 favorite]
There is an Ankh in that Christmas Tree!

Is there any way to get the cross to be bigger? I’m not sure the Unicode tree will be able to reflect the true meaning of CHRISTmas posted by Think_Long at 1:13 PM on December 15, 2009
I'm convinced that this website was put up as a research project merely to clock how fast Godwin's law kicks in nowadays. posted by Avelwood at 2:27 PM on December 15, 2009

Eh, just mentioning something related to Nazis but not comparing people or arguments is not evoking Godwin's Law. Only an member of the SS would say something like that. (See what I did there?) posted by Burhanistan at 2:30 PM on December 15, 2009

Ogre Lawless: Redecorating a tree will make a new tree. posted by douglaswth at 7:48 PM on December 15, 2009
You can include your own custom symbols by pasting them into the little boxes labeled "character". If you want a swastika tree, go for it! As douglaswth and I said on the Projects post, the choice of ornaments is intentionally open-ended to allow for all religious and secular traditions that involve shiny green HTML trees in the winter.
Also notice that when you hover over the color selector, each color has a name. These are the extended color names in CSS. My original xmas tree had the color "snow" for the snowman, "deepskyblue" for the umbrella, "goldenrod" for the flower, "forestgreen" for the tree, etc. etc. I like trying to use weird color names whenever I make websites.
Anyway, I'm so excited that you guys like our dorky little holiday project. I'm poking Doug to add more of these to the Featured Trees section. posted by dreamyshade at 7:49 PM on December 15, 2009 [1 favorite]
