So YWS needs a new background since the snowflake one has been up for two months now. What should it be?

I've only made three options for the poll because I rather not make a huge list of options. If you have an idea for a background, just let me know here. It'll help a lot if you also include a link to that background.

I don't have a link, but something spring-y would be cool. Maybe leaves, or flowers?

Put up a logo or something more writing related because snowflakes make me ENRAGED!!!!! *sets snowflakes on fire* Or something else, I mean, nothing is bland, snowflakes anger the population... ... put something writing related or inspirational on the background for somebody's sake!

I voted snowflakes because I wasn't sure what "other" meant. Now I wish I'd voted that! I think something with writing/flowers/butterflies, etc. would be cool. We love those happy things! :D

I always kinda prefer abstract patterns for backgrounds... Though I agree a spring theme might be cool. There are some nice somewhat spring-related ones on these pages:
Flowers:

Anything with a repeating pattern. I enjoy scrolling up and down the page really fast, so that the background picture repeats so fast it looks like it isn't moving...

I wrote the above just for you.

February is coming up... Hearts! Lots and lots of hearts! :-) hee hee. Or cupid and his arrow?

I love how the backgrounds are so seasonal.

The background should be composed of some combination of Bananas and Snakes.

Is that the new sequel to Snakes on a plane?

I was thinking of something colourful and happy...that makes you smile when you come online.

I think maybe some deep blue, with some swirls of lighter blue...or something.

If you google "blue swirls" you get all kinds of cool swirls...
