If you weren't exactly thrilled about the idea of hanging a USB Christmas wreath from your laptop, don't fret, I've got a much less tackier way of getting into the Christmas spirit. Today's download of the day is a Firefox add-on called Tinseltown, a holiday theme that includes Christmas icons, a candy-cane scrollbar, and snowflakes. Tinseltown works on Mac, Windows, and Linux and shouldn't peeve off coworkers like random, USB Christmas trinkets.To learn how to post your favorite sites to the Download of the Day group, read more

I know that this long list looks scary, but trust me, once you get the hang of it, it'll be a snap the second time around.

  1. First of all, join the Download of the Day group
  2. Click "Create and Share!" on the left hand side
  3. Choose "Blog"
  4. Give your photo a Title
  5. Leave the category as "general"
  6. Change the channel to "technology and gadgets"
  7. Add keyword(s) (for example mine for this photo was "Download of the Day")
  8. Click on the "Add Image" link below the "body" box
  9. A popup window will happen - click on "Browse" to find your image on your computer
  10. Once you have the image chosen, click "Submit"
  11. The popup will show you your image, choose size: "normal" - if you want, you can give it a title (which will show up as a caption)
  12. Click "Insert" and the popup will go away
  13. Your "body" box will now have some text in it. Leave it as is. If you want to add some text before the picture telling me why you love the download, do it before the code that has appeared.
  14. Click Submit

So join the Download of the Day group and share information about all your favorite downloads! Yours just might end up on the geeksugar homepage!

    I can't get this to work- my computer says it's an unrecognized file type. Help?
