HOHOHO!!
Open a window each day until Christmas to reveal a lovely image and earn a shiny medal for being a good lil' Newgrounder
Updates:
Ver 1.1:
- Managed to get the Date & Time API working, so people who reset their CPU clocks are wasting their time.
- Added a few more medals until I got sleepy.
Ver 1.2:
- Added thumbnails to opened windows, so you know what image is behind them (and you can quit looking at the godawful pic that forms the main image).
- Fixed some of the artist names and links. Whoops.
- Switched some of the pics around for Day 12.
Ver 1.3 (hopefully the last major update):
- Will now Save opened windows. YES GET IN.
- Corrected the vertical alignment of some windows.
Ver 1.3.1 - 1.3.3
- Added some dates and a clear button.
- Some guys said they couldn't earn medals. I've added some leeway to the code which hopefully fixes this.
Ver 1.3.4
- Think I'm all done now. Time to enjoy that Christmas Eve beer! Merry Christmas!
**NOTE 1**
You can only gain medals if you open the door on the day. I'm a believer in making medals a challenge to obtain. Plus they're only 5 points, so if you miss a day it isn't a big deal. But watch out for Christmas day ...
**NOTE 2**
Some people have noticed that you can see all the artwork after I update the file. Just clear your cache, and it should work fine.
**NOTE 3**
If you're looking at this at some time after Christmas (January onwards), you're out of luck! (Why, did you think earning medals was going to be as easy as clicking some buttons? Naff off). The only time you can earn medals is during December. This is a Christmas collab, after all.

Aw, missed three days. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if the secret medal was getting all the medals, heh, but I was still kind of expecting something a bit more spectacular for the 24th.. I mean, not just 5 points!! Otherwise this is a great idea, and there's a bunch of creative to sweep through. The interface is simple and nicly designed too, with more features than you'd expect or need. Looking forward to next year! merry Christmas!
-cd-
Who said the calendar finished on the 24th? ;)
Merry Christmas, fella.

Looks nice. Music fits it perfectly.
Still a bit buggy though.
23, 24 and 25 have the same icon for me. (I probably opened 24 in an earlier version).
I can still open 25 though, and get the achievement, but I can't see the art.
Yeah, I've been told about that.
As you said, it's because you've opened up day 24 in an earlier version, which makes ... THAT door visible.
I blame it on being buggy in the past, and being currently unfinished while I wait for the last submission.
... but then again, what are you doing opening up doors early?

I don't get it. How do I earn medals?
I have opened 23 windows and haven't earned any medal at all :(
I'd tell you ...
... but for a guy who gives a 1/5 review just because they can't work out how the medals work, why bother?

Great flash but when you click the 24 sign the 20th day still shows up. Other than that it was great!
Damn. Ok, I'll get onto that.

I'm happy to get the 21st medal the day after, since it didn't work for me yesterday.
You get right on fixing bugs, and the artwork is funny (or creepy sometimes...)
