Is there a way to disable this?

Maybe a skin that does or does not allow this.

Thanks,

I think its cool looking on the short term, but if I read for any period of time I find it annoying.

I like the snow on evergreens way better than the christmas tree.

I, too, prefer the snowy trees to the Christmas trees.

Well, I logged on and saw snowy trees only, my first thought was, "oooooo, prettty." :D I love it.

I like it a lot...it actually looks a lot better now than it did when I first logged in. Kudos, Andrew! :)

Me too - I was online when it first came on; I prefer the subtler look of the current version.

I really like the background!
Hope we keep it and change it from time to time. I agree that the more subtle ones would be best.

Nice job Andrew, I like the low transparency of the foreground panels.

Thanks,

Well, I obviously can't speak for anybody else, but this background, while it may be fine once on the new server, is slowing down everything I do ... so, for that, I don't like it. This happened with the Halloween background as well.

Background wouldn't have any effect on the server at all. If something is causing slowdown it would be local. Are you using a older computer?

I've noticed some network latency lately, but seems to be a NE US issue based on my tests.
