Summary: This alteration will changed the default standard alerts and display santa hats for the festive season for those that want to add that.
notes: If you have a custom navigation you may need to re-position the hats as this was tested on a default installation.
Install: Simply upload the santa hat to your /icons folder and paste the following in your EXTRA.CSS template.
