Not every country has New Years Eve (or not the way we have it), does anyone in this room feel offended because someone might eventually create a New Years Eve theme? I don't think so. Cut the crap, create a Christmas theme, use it, be happy. and if you still think there should be a Hanukah theme, just imagine the 'Happy Christmas' sign says 'Happy Hanukah'. sigh...
If you mean Christians, you must not know that the majoraty of the world is [B]not[B] Christian. In fact, only a third (according to statistics from a Christian site) are. Totally discounting all of the other religions would be plainly unfair to such a diverse world we have. Even with my seventh grade Social Studies knowledge, I can name about 10 religions that aren't Christian. If Christmas is supposed to be a time for unity, why not have a diverse theme this year? Also, I mentioned this off-handidly, but no game company would release a holiday game for anything else than Christmas, because it wouldn't sell enough. There could be two themes, one with Christmas only and one with many different religions, to choose from if anyone really objects to the multi-holiday theme. Again, this is just my idea, but I think it would be pleasent to see many different cultures tied together in just one theme.

Ah yes, and Splash, what would be wrong with it saying "Season's greetings" or "Happy holidays" on the sign? That's generic enough to fit all of the holidays, but doesn't exclude any of them.
