Anyone notice VLC is wearing a Santa hat ?

I'm just looking at my minimised VLC Icon, and it has a Santa hat on the 'Traffic Cone.' Hehe.

Can the hat be removed and prevented from appearing? If yes, how? If no, no matter.

I suppose, when not using VLC, the Hat isn't there.

Dunno, haven't tried.

You might check for the special icons and see if removing them would have any effect ...  maybe require a reboot or log out ...

No joy. But its no big deal. It will eventually go away on its own.
