Oddworld OWI's Christmas Card

I just checked my mailbox and I got a Christmas Card from OWI for joining that fan club thingy. I don't know if you've gotten yours yet, but I thought it was a nice thing to do for the fans. I know, it isn't much, but they actually remember us (sniff...).

Happy Happy Hol-ODD-days!

I got it too. It has a really cool design on the front but is kind of hard to describe.

Happy Holidays to you too OWI!

I don't have a scanner, but I could describe it to you...

On the front it has the OWI logo in a wintery scene with green and red arrows shot into it and feathers, leaves and bones hanging down.

On the inside it has the OWI logo and says...

Happy Hol-ODD-ays!
Wishing you a bountiful new year.
Oddworld Inhabitants

Then there's a stamp of Alf in the corner.

Phew. I'm done.

It's through the mail, not email.

I just got mine, it looks awesome! However, I don't know If it gives us any clue to OW4.

Hmmm, I still haven't gotten mine yet? I usally get them right away. But aside from that I love the art on the Christmas cards that they send every year, my favorite would have to be the 2000 one.

Yes I received my card friday, just my mom forgot to give me it until sunday. I thought it was really great, and a thing you dont really see often from many companies, especially video game companies. Cheers again to OWI.

Sad help!

I signed up for the fan club, but I never got anything except one email. Now I have moved...what should I do? They say "only one account per fan" or whatever. Is it ok to fill the form out again? My address has changed. I want my card...

Thanks to anybody who could help me out on this.

Thanks for the compliment, Xav! I'd love to do a card for OWI.

I might be able to do it this weekend, but not now; I have too many things due on friday. But I'll start on the Christmas card A.S.A.P.

hmmm lets simply sign:
"The Whole Oddworld Forums"

let it simply be an internet event: I mean not someone who print it.
Just put it on internet, someone email to alf and he will see. There will probably be a special topic for it

I dont know if anyone remembers me, but I signed up some time ago but sadly I had browser problems and this site was one of the bunch that kept crashing. I finally managed to fix the bug now!

Anywhooo, I was surprised with this card on monday
