APDG ~ Happy Hanukkah Deco Swap

Hanukkah begins at sunset on December 24th and continues until January 1st.

Hanukkah is the most popular holiday on the Jewish calendar. It is celebrated on the 25th day of Kislev, which is the third month of the Jewish calendar, and occurs sometime in December of the Gregorian calendar. The Hanukkah holiday lasts eight successive days during which eight candles are lit, beginning with one on the first night, two on the second night, three on the third night, and so on. The celebration also is known as the Feast of Lights, the Feast of Dedication, and the Feast of the Maccabees. Hanukkah means “dedication” and commemorates the rededication of the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem in 165 B.C. following a victorious rebellion by the Jews against their oppressors.

Post THREE (3) pictures or gifs to each of your THREE (3) partner's profiles with the theme "Hanukkah". The pictures that you choose may be the SAME OR DIFFERENT between all of your partners. Please choose pictures that you think THEY will enjoy!

Only people with well filled out profiles may participate in this swap. I will be checking the night before partners get assigned.

If you get 3 pictures from your partner on "Hanukkah" you have to rate them a 5. The heart on the rating is for if you like what they sent.

To leave a photo on someone's profile use this code ! [ ] ( Put image here ) With NO spaces & paste the picture's link between the curved parenthesis.

Practice on your own profile first to be sure it looks good because you can easily delete there.

Pick images that are size 300 wide or smaller to be sure they fit.

I go to Google images to get my pictures.

Hover over images to see their size because there will be some larger sizes there too. If you really like something click on it and go to the words SEARCH BY IMAGE and click on that. THEN go to the word SMALL and see if there is one 300 size. There are other tricks in the group thread; AN EASY way to get a small PIC from a BIG one;-)

Please write the TITLE OF THE SWAP ON YOUR PROFILE DECO MESSAGE too! This makes it easier for partners that are in a lot of these swaps to rate it.

Any problems, feel free to contact me.

I want to thank @anrtist for allowing me to borrow SOME of her wording.
