I have participated in the Winter Bash and can see that many users have profile icons with hats on it. I think I earned one hat, but can't see it on my profile. Am I missing something?

Go to your hats count on your profile, click it, then click on one of the hats.

  • I click on my hats and it says "Your Hats loading..." and nothing more. It must be trying to run something that is blocked from work. At least I know now why I can see others' hats but not mine.

When you earned a hat, you'll be notified by the Winter Bash notifier in the title bar:

hat notifier

And you'll find a hat count in your profile:

hat count

To wear a hat, click on the count and pick a hat to wear:

hat selection

Alternatively, you can click on your profile picture (on your profile page) to switch hats. If you click the circled hat again, you'll remove it.

  • Correct. I can see 1 there. But nothing on the pic ? How to display it there ?

    @AYK: Click on the count, then choose a hat to wear. You need to don the hat to show it!

Go to your profile and see below profile views (for other's profile) or helpful flags (for your own profile).

Another option:

Go to Winter Bash and login there. You can see there active whichever is earned by you.

Updated UI (as of 2015): to access your hats click on the hat graphic on the Activity tab of your profile:

hat grapheme in context

This lets you choose any hat you've earned on any site:

hat rack
