Happy Holidays from Wowhead
The holiday season is upon us, which means it's not only time for our
Winter Veil guide
and holiday giveaway, but also more
Noxy art
! Every year Noxy creates a new holiday wallpaper for Wowhead, and this year she's imaging how all the faction leaders are celebrating after the
Siege of Orgrimmar

past wallpapers here
!)
2013 was an innovative year for Wowhead as we released a lot of
creative features
to keep up with the changing game--like Wowhead Sounds, the Battle Pet Team Calculator, visual search results, and collection tracking--and we have even more in store for 2014!
We couldn't have done this without your continued support and the entire staff thanks you for visiting and being part of the Wowhead tradition.
