I tried the two logo's I could find the quickest but both were bigger than 260x260px, which is astronomically small. Maybe up those limits to something like 800x600?

Thanks for the tip. We wanted it to be the size logos usually are, when placed on the websites, so it'll be fairly easy to upload it when done. We might reconsider this size due to the fact that some just want to share their holidized logos on social channels and therefore need it bigger.

Or anyone utilizing larger sizes for retina.

I gave up after three tries.
Why? did you have difficulties uploading your logo?
I did. 260x160 is absurdly small. I didn't have anything that small just lying around.

Still, I wanted to see what exactly the thing did. This being HN and all, I thought it was somehow an auto-holidizer, or something, and I was curious. So I launched photoshop, and crushed my logo down to the size of a darn pea.

Once I got in, I was a touch disappointed. On top of the already small logo restriction, you have clipart that's so small I can barely see it on my 1920x1080 monitor. All in all, too much work for a simple toy, in my opinion. A little more explanation of what it does on the landing page would have been welcome.

Also, what the hell, man?

Now I'm sad I even played with the thing at all.

Don't be sad :)

We sure can add some more explanation on the landing page. Regarding the size, we wanted to make it easy when you upload it again to your site. Talking to this community helps understand that we can definitely make it bigger for sharing reasons or just to play around with.

Thanks for the feedback
