Tankmas 2022 came thru at about 11pm NG time:

Yeah, even tho it was late in the day, I'm glad I remembered this year. Usually, I find the current Tankmas well into the month, and have missed most or all of the first week already. On one of these, I still need about 5 of the first week's medals. x)
A while back, I think they changed Day 1 so now it's not required to get on day 1, but Day 2 and onward are day-specific.
Barracks Roster as of December 1st, 2022:
Hello, all. Sorry about posting late - I'm in my busy season as a consultant, where everyone wants their projects done before the end of the year, and between that and gearing up for the holidays, just been real busy.
Before I forget: I can tell you now that January 1st's roster, although it will be calculated and available on the Barracks Website , it won't be posted here until January 10th - and for a very good reason: I'll be on a New Years Cruise from 12/31 through 1/8, and getting back home by 1/9. The cruise leaves from NYC Saturday afternoon, and I'll be ringing in the New Years with some of my family and friends somewhere off the coast of Delaware. We'll be hitting Port Canaveral, The Bahamas and Bermuda along the way. In those ports, I'll have phone coverage, so I'll be able to pop in, keep an eye on things, and maybe get my daily votes in - but that's going to be hit or miss based on what's going on for the day. It's a "bucket list" item for all of us going - to not only take a cruise together, but also ring in the New Years someplace besides our house. I hope it will be as good as it sounds.
Now, back to business:
November saw a lot of action in the barracks. We have four members who were promoted, so let's give a hearty round of cheers to the newly-minted EGBG @AnalPenguinFarming , EGCOL @EchoTense01, EGL @freaks-heart and EGC @tox. Well done and well deserved, soldiers! *SALUTES*
It seems our newest members have really hit the ground running. EGL @freaks-heart and EGC @tox have been extremely busy in the forums, and they're also non-stop in the portal, giving EGSC @Guthrie a run for his money. What's really exciting is that we have EGSC @Pingu keeping pace with Guthrie, so now we have two voting insomniacs in the house. Definitely appreciate all of your hard work and enthusiasm - thank you! *SALUTES*
And last but not least, we have our ever-steady EGSC @Exedor running shotgun on the forums daily, keeping things running smooth and happily taking out the trash when it tries to weasel its way in. Always friendly and professional, he's certainly earned his place among the upper echelon of the Barracks. Keep up the great work! *SALUTES*

Correct.
passing the original through a pixle program
didn't happen here.
or overlaying each frame
also didnt happen here.
and then turning out a product that is a little more hand crafted
hand crafted = new piece.
still results in the same idea
its a modified version of someone else's work
It's a remake that was remade by someone other than the original, but there are personal touches to this new one, and a remake is not necessarily a stole & copy. Like Sad Cat Dance; they're all copies of the original, but they're each individual and not a theft of the original.

There's an account that claims to be run by the Brothers Chaps and is uploading old Homestar Runner flashes. I don't know enough to say if they are the real deal or not.

One way to detect if a userpage is fake is to check the authors' other official pages (ie. YouTube, Twitter, website, etc.) to see if they linked or posted it somewhere.
Spoiler alert: they didn't,
If they didn't, it's likely fake, but it could also mean they're keeping it discreet / testing the waters.
That leads us to the only other method, verification from the NG staff.
