Description
Every so often I like to change the profile pic on my Facebook Page and about a week ago I decided to use “Pyre”. One of my fans saw the post and suggested “adding some red into the mix” to give it a more Christmas look.
That gave me the idea to take it a step or two further. I’ve reworked the particle emitters to create a more festive effect 🙂
I hope you like it!

Merry Christmas to you Ryan (and family) from a new Lifetime Supporter/longtime Member! With many Thanks for all the art that is in you and that you create for all of us!
BTW: I second Chris B’s suggestion that a Santa/St. Nick like figure would be a cool alternate version. But I do love this one.

i think this is beautiful; however, i wish there was not a ‘figure’ in the graphic. it draws one’s attention away from the momentous Christmas tree.

Any chance you could make a 1440×2560 version of this for high resolution phones?

This is honestly a great Christmas rendition 🙂

Ryan, you totally don’t have to but…if you changed the hue of his cape to red…swap the hood for a tossle cap… maybe some white trim… add the assassin back in, but make it an elf or a child…
That being said, I really do like it as is 🙂

Good colours, makes me think of a very techno Christmas tree. It will be going into my computer.

This is absolutely lovely. I actually had the original pyre on my desktop until two seconds ago. No longer! This is a perfect Christmas update!

I used your animated version of the original pyre.avi as my background. Unfortunately, it kept crashing my machine. That’s not your fault, windows sucked at the time.

The original is one of my all time favourites. This Christmas version is perfection!!!

I am definitely a fan of “Pyre” on its own merits. What you’ve done here is so full of wit and charm and makes me smile so much that I just HAD to comment….

Not sure which member suggested the update, but I think this is absolutely fabulous. I put it as my wallpaper on my iPad and when my daughter turned it on, I heard an audible gasp, then a long “oooooohhhhhh”. I’d say that it was a success.

What I imagine Christmas would be like in some far flung future or even galaxy! It’s a lovely work!

On a more serious note, THANK YOU, Ryan, for your creativity and artistry. Your work makes my life just a little bit better every day.

I love this! Seeing twists like these on images from many years ago that graced my desktop back then is one of my favorite things about the site. Festive indeed!

With all the awe inspiring and imaginative wallpapers you have so far, I keep thinking – is there anything you can do that’s better. And you keep doing it. It’s great to be witness to an extremely talented artist with the tools to put that art to use for all of us to enjoy. Keep up the great work!!

Wonderful, Ryan! A truly magical Christmas image. 😉

Perfect for the holidays – thanks!

Pyre was already one of my absolute favorites. Yule is one of my favorite times of the year. Combined, this has gone above and beyond. I simply adore this!

Yes this picture shows me the joy of the season, but what makes the magic? Its the people I’m around that make that magic.

I love this tree! I would love if it was outside and not with a man in front of it. It’s such a beautiful tree and so unique that it’d be gorgeous in the right setting!
