    That right there is everything I'd hoped for in a Yule card. Thanks @Scottie!

    Excellent suggestions!

    Oh! And as a special, last minute bonus,...here's the added pieces I created for the Yule Garlands, that allows you to decorate horizontal surface edges (like the stockings can)! You can see them at work here on a fireplace mantel, large and small! Depending on how you arrange them, you might even be able to fit a stocking or two along with them!
    [​IMG]

    These are about 1/3rd the size of the small wall garland versions, as requested by Dallas, to allow for multiple garlands on such shelf-like edges, so you can trim a table, bookshelves, mantels. and any surface that has been given a horizontal collision shape...

    Enjoy!

    Scottie ^_^

    @Scottie : I just tried to see if a wreath can be hung on the railing of a Barons Frigate. It looks the railings do not have a surface to hang it from. Bummer. :(

    Any chance you could get them to fix that so that the garland can be hung from them?

    I figured that was the case, unfortunately, since most railings have top-surface horizontal deco faces, but not necessarily side-surface vertical deco faces (only collision)... Adding additional deco surfaces is indeed possible, but it's a pretty involved task that may or may not get approval from folks like Starr, who guard developer time with zeal... I'll send this to him from a standpoint of "general request" to see if there may be a chance of a pass at some point soon that will allow more decorative placement versatility for all these new items, for a broad number for folks, like yourself, that love placing awesome decorations... ^_^

    At least, however, there may be a chance of using the smallest "shelf" garland set that I just added for your Frigate, since I'm hoping the railings are all horizontal enough to have had "floor"-type deco faces added to their tops...

    I'll see if I can get QA to test them for me sometime today!

    Scottie ^_^

    So as it turns out, Hutch and I looked at the Frigate home and determined that there has never been a deco surface, either horizontal or perpendicular, placed on its upstairs deck railings. Of course, in several areas the railings aren't actually horizontally flat-enough to allow them (as floors and table-tops must be), but for the sake of decoration potential Hutch has agreed that it would be OK to add deco surfaces to the railing areas that are capable of supporting them (at least horizontally)... I'll be creating a JIRA task for one of us to add those hopefully soon! ^_^
