So... in case you didn't already know there were 3 new png files added in the recent snapshot:
Christmas Chest
Skis
Large Christmas Chest
You might be wondering what these files do. Well, on Christmas day, if you open up Minecraft and look at a chest, it'll look like one of these! But nobody (as far as I know) knows what the skis do yet, so we'll have to wait and see. If you want, you can set your computer time to the 25th while using the snapshot and see how they look. Here's a pic:
Thanks for reading!
EDIT: The ski's don't do anything, but are just there in the items.png file. Hooray for unused items! xD Welcome to the unused items club, skis, the quiver, purple arrow, and ruby welcome you. :3
Well his post originally was directly above mine so I did not see it necessary to repeat the whole post. Looks like it was removed? Either way I like to consolidate my posts as much as possible.

Help me! The evil is taking me away,
its pulling me into the darkness.
Please help me, if I go in there
I will never come back, the world
is slowly drifting away. All I can
see is the pain and sorrow in my
eyes. My tears are drying up. I'm
already gone....
That would be awesome, but I think it'd make transportation way too easy so it'd be nice if it was a feature that only worked on Christmas day.
While it might make transportation easier (which might not be all that bad in itself anyways), it wouldn't be all that great for it to work one day of the year. Skis are skis, they don't suddenly stop working.

It would only really make Steve move faster, and given the difficulty of dodging trees and terrain height changes I imagine they won't be any faster method of travel than sprinting without some manual work to create a ski I slope of sorts. This is just pure speculation though.

Well...This is the first I have seen of this news. Sounds fun. Maybe I am out of the loop haha.

Erm... what's up with the snip? o_O

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
Perhaps they allow for a walking speed boost in snow which will now pile up? Perhaps they go faster downhill? MUCH faster?
...and perhaps can even slide uphill, allowing for ramps...
DO WANT!!!!
That would be.. just awesome
xD
If it was an actual functioning device I think It'd be cool if it worked ONLY on the 25th... maybe it'd be cool if it replaced minecarts?
Oh sorry gotcha
Thanks. Same here

It would be used to slide down snow mountains, I made a suggestion about the uses of skis.
I found the christmas chest easter egg also, I turned the clock to Dec. 25 and then started up Minecraft and boom! Those presents are nifty!
Now all we need is hot cocoa.
I really hope they didn't just add the ski.png in for fun. I really wanna know what it does. :/
