Go Elf Yourself

Just in time for the holidays, now you can make like Will Ferrell and elf yourself!
If this doesn’t bring a smile to your face, then you should just go to sleep and wait for Jacob Marley and the rest of the ghosts to come and visit you this weekend.
I will say I think I make one of the ugliest elfs on the planet though. Hopefully you’re much better than I am.
You can make one of these little greetings for yourself at Elf Yourself.com and send it to your friends. In addition, although I didn’t do it, you can record your voice greeting to go along with your card.
I’d love to see you as an elf, so be sure and come back and leave your personalized URL in the comments and share with the rest of us.
Here’s the link to my personalized card.
UPDATE: If you’re having problems accessing the Elf Yourself website, try leaving off the “www” in the URL. So, use http://elfyourself.com instead of http://www.elfyourself.com.
i love this
This is really cool stuff and a great idea too to send my girlfriend abroad. I have been searching the net for creative ecards to send and this is one of my favorites. Check this latest news about elf yourself, this is also cool

It’s a similar thing but you do Santa Yourself.
I got the pics in and went select the dance and I was logged off even from the internet, I tried at least 4 times but nothing can you please help me
i want to make my own elfyourself
This thing is a real hype!
I did this last year. What fun.
I cannot get to it this year???
All I get is a blank screen whith a changing picture of one elf. No where to start my own. Any help would be sincerely appreciated.
Just google Elf Yourself and it’s the first one, one by OfficeMax and JibJab. Here’s link if you cant find it. http://www.elfyourself.com/
hey can anyone tell me why elfyourself isnt working i tried taking the www out but when i click get started on the website it doesnt work and people cant see the video i posted on the interenet.
kthanksbye:)
I received one off my friend today. I live in australia and tried doing myself but cant get past the first page where it says “start” it goes to a website having problems etc page..
Anyone else having problems?
If it’s anything like in previous years, they’re probably just getting slammed with activity from people wanting to use the site.
I know these young girls who have an account on youtube! They want to get elfed so they visited this website and they are going to get elfed if you want to watch them go to http://www.youtube.com/UrFacepro and they will love it if they get more veiws and subscribers! They dont want to post another video if they dont have around 1,000 veiws! So it would be most appreciated if you owuld help these 5 little girls! Thanks!
i smell bad
i LOVE it. it made me laugh sooooooo much
i love this website for me it takes awhile to load but it works
Even when I’m not watching, just thinking about it starts me to giggling. LOL
When i try 2 download it, it freezes and says that there’s an error. Does anyone know how to get round this? =]
Everytime I try to open this website it says that I need to download the latest version of Flash…?? but I have it and I’ve downloaded it off the link provided about 4 times aswell now but it still wont fupping work. Stupid stupid website. It worked for me last year. grrrr frustrating
Nice article about the nice site.
I AM GETING ANGY I HAVE BEEN ON HERE FOR A TWO HOURS AND IT WILL NOT WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trevor I’m guessing it’s probably an issue with the amount of traffic the site is getting. Have you tried accessing the site at a different time of day?

hi i cant wait till you can see this.
You’d think this concept would get old, but it remains fun and addictive!
The integration of both Facebook Connect and Twitter, here and lots of recent campaigns, illustrates the importance of encouraging and facilitating a viral loop to your users.
According to ViralBlog, JibJab removed the required account registration this year due to a significant decrease in site visits from 2007 (193 million) and 2008 (55 million). While they sent out less cards, they greatly increased their database, which was a priority for them.
I’ve posted more about it here, if you’re so inclined

Cheers,

I’m thinking about using this technology for a different application, do I need to license it from JibJab or is this something that is simple enough that my company can do on their own?
