I have started a new page for Christmas graphics that I made and ones I have borrowed. I have logos at the bottom of the page to give credit to where some of these came from. Most of these are ones I created, a new project for me, made from Paint Shop Pro 5. It only took me longer than I care to relate, to make these. I hope you enjoy them.
If you wish to use some of these graphics, please provide a link to my page, or copy one of the banners below, and link them to this page.
The graphics on these pages will take a long time to load, but worth it.
Below, you will find some of the web rings I belong to. They are great places to quality web pages.
These are a few banners to links to free graphics and other holiday pages, as well as Egyptian and Oriental Art.
These are some links to other pages of free web art and information.

I received the following in an email, from a friend. Please read and see how interesting the bible or life can be.
For all you scientists out there and for all the students who have a
hard time convincing these people regarding the truth of the
Bible...here's
something that shows God awesome creation and shows that He is still in
control.
Did you know that the space program is busy proving that what has been
called "myth" in the Bible is true? Mr. Harold Hill, President of the
Curtis
Engine Company in Baltimore Maryland and a consultant in the space
program,
relates the following development:
I think one of the most amazing things that God has for us today
happened recently to our astronauts and space scientists at Green Belt,
Maryland. They were checking the position of the sun, moon, and planets
out in space where they would be 100 years and 1000 years from now. We
have to know this so we won't send a satellite, up and have it bump into
something later on its
orbits. We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the
satellite, and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog
down.
They ran the computer measurement back and forth over the centuries and
it
came to a halt. The computer stopped and put up a red signal, which
meant
that
there was something wrong either with the information fed into it or
with
the results as compared to the standards.
They called in the service department to check it out and they
said "what's wrong?" Well they found there is a day missing in space in
elapsed
time.
They scratched their heads and tore their hair. There was no answer.
Finally, a Christian man on the team said, "You know, one time I was in
Sunday
school and they talked about the sun standing still." While they didn't
believe him, they didn't have an answer either, so they said, "Show
us".
He got a Bible and went back to the book of Joshua where they found a
pretty
ridiculous statement for any one with "common sense " There they found
the
Lord saying to Joshua, "Fear them not, I have delivered them into thy
hand;
there shall not a man of them stand before thee."
Joshua was concerned because he was surrounded by the enemy and if
darkness
fell they would overpower them. So Joshua asked the Lord to make the
sun
stand till! That's right-"The sun stood still and the moon stayed---and
hasted not to go down out a whole day!"
The astronauts and scientists said, "There is the missing day!" They
checked
the computers going back into the time it was written and found it was
close
but not close enough. The elapsed time that was missing back in Joshua's
day was 23 hours and 20 minutes-not a whole day.
They read the Bible and there it was "about (approximately) a day".
These
little words in the Bible are important, but they were still in trouble
because if you cannot account for 40 minutes you'll still be in trouble
1,000 years from now. Forty minutes had to be found because it can be
multiplied many times over in orbits. As the Christian employee thought
about it, he remembered somewhere in the Bible where it said the sun
went
BACKWARDS.
The scientists told him he was out of his mind, but they got out the
Book
and read these words in 2 Kings Hezekiah, on his death-bed, was visited
by
the prophet Isaiah who told him that he was not going to die.
Hezekiah asked for a sign as proof. Isaiah said "Do you want the sun to
go
ahead 10 degrees?" Hezekiah said "It is nothing for the sun to go ahead
10
degrees, but let the Shadow return backward 10 degrees.." Isaiah spoke
to
the Lord and the Lord brought the shadow ten degrees BACKWARD!
Ten degrees is exactly 40 minutes! Twenty three hours and 20 minutes in
Joshua, plus 40 minutes in Second Kings make the missing day in the
universe!
Isn't it amazing? Our God is rubbing their noses in His Truth!
References Joshua 10:8 and 12,13 2 Kings 20:9-11.
Forward this to as many people who would think this is equally as cool.

This is one of the best places to get web graphics. All of them are very beautiful.
I love unicorns. Of course, slighly out of place on this page, however, fun to look at.
No page would be complete without a faery to grace the pages.
Just a few more precious graphics. Some of these were made by me and buttionized.
The next pages have lots more graphics, but not Christmas ones.
