What the animated christmas card video looks like

Your pet sits calmly in a cozy winter scene and gives a small happy nod while soft snow drifts down and warm lights twinkle behind it. The lower part of the frame stays calm, and a Merry Christmas greeting (with an optional "from your pet's name" line) fades in after about a second, added after the video is made so the lettering is always spelled right.

Animated Christmas Card video questions

Can I try it for free?

Yes. The preview is free, needs no sign-up and carries a Pawtwirl watermark. Keep that exact preview without the watermark (standard quality), or make a new HD take, a fresh, sharper take from the same photo and template with different details. Keeping it costs 6 credits and a new HD take costs 12.

Can I add my own message?

Yes, you can add your pet's name. Type a name (up to 24 characters: letters, numbers, spaces and ' - . ! & ) and the card reads "Merry Christmas from Biscuit" in the same lettering as the greeting. The headline itself stays Merry Christmas, and it is added after the video is made so it is always spelled right. Leave the name blank for the plain greeting.

Can I send it to family?

Yes. The HD video is a normal MP4 you can send in any messaging app or post as a story. Previews carry a watermark, so use HD for cards you send.

What if the video fails?

Failed videos are refunded automatically, so you never pay for a result you did not get.
