Get ready for Christmas with one of our new limited edition themes~
Get them before January 31st!

Big thanks our About Me Contest Winners who created the Calm Winter (@snowpumpkin) and Neon Skyline (@AlaskanMalamute) themes.

The animated theme is a MAL Supporter exclusive ✨

Already using a holiday theme that you don't want to lose?
Don't worry, you can now claim themes to use them later—even after the January 31st deadline. Going forward, all holiday themes will be claimable so that you don't lose your previous theme when switching to a new one :)

I like that now we are able to pick the image shape, but it's still a hassle to move a ranking from its spot (ie rank 3 to rank 1). Hopefully that will also get updated in the future.

Also the idea of claiming time limited themes is neat, will that also apply to featured anime?

and I'm not sure when manga was added but POG! thanks~

Perhaps a stupid question, but: If someone had already noticed and started using one of those themes for their about me section before the implementation of the claiming feature, that theme is automatically claimed, right?
I'm asking because I noticed about 10 days ago that Xmas themes were available and started using the Electric Ornaments theme (claiming wasn't a thing back then). And now that this announcement was made, when I went to the About Me Design section, that theme was of course selected and, unlike the others, wasn't greyed out with the text 'Claim theme' underneath. So would I be safe to assume that since I was already using it, this theme was automatically claimed and I indeed won't lose it after the 31st of January?

Thanks in advance for any answers.

I had an old holiday theme (from Autumn) in my Modern About Me from the last time I tested something. Just now, I changed to a Christmas theme and saved. Then I refreshed the page, and the Autumn theme I was using before is still there. So, long story short, you should be good :)

That's nice to hear, thanks for answering. So it seems in addition, past themes from previous seasons (Summer, Autumn) could hypothetically be automatically claimed too this way if someone had them selected/was using them from back when they were available.
(Which reminds me, it was a pity I wasn't able to keep this summer theme I liked back in Autumn, all because I wanted to test the Autumn themes; at least now with the claiming feature this won't be a problem anymore, so it's pretty cool that this is now a thing)

There are numerous "About me" themes and some "List design" themes. I wonder when/if "Statistics" will ever receive some love (those colours are horrible).
