    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    Many holiday celebrations will take place over video conference again this year, which means plenty of people will be on the hunt for an excellent Christmas Zoom background.

    Whether you're attending a virtual office party, present exchange or
    Christmas dinner, a festive background will only add to proceedings.

    To help make your virtual festivities feel a little more like the real deal, weve compiled a selection of Christmas Zoom backgrounds that are bound to get you in the holiday spirit. How to use Zoom backgrounds

    Before picking out a Christmas Zoom background, youll need to know how to configure custom backgrounds on the platform. Thankfully, the process is really simple.

    First, ensure the Zoom backgrounds feature is enabled in your account settings. You can do this by accessing your account page via your web
    browser, navigating to Settings in the left-hand bar, clicking on In Meeting (Advanced) and toggling Virtual Backgrounds to on (the slider will turn blue once the feature has been activated).

    To configure your Zoom background, log into the desktop application and click on the settings icon in the top right corner. Under the Virtual Background tab, you can choose from stock options, or upload an image or video via the + icon below the video feed.

    Whichever background you select in the settings panel will automatically be applied when you next log into a video conference.

    For the best results, its important to ensure the video is bright and evenly lit. Your Christmas Zoom backgrounds wont perform quite as well in partial darkness or glaring light, which can both result in unwelcome distortion.

    Using a green screen backdrop is ideal, but impractical for many, and a plain background of any colour works perfectly well so long as your clothing isnt the same color. Christmas Zoom backgrounds
