Do you want to add falling snow to your website or blog? [See it in action here]

It's very easy to do!

There are many different scripts that can accomplish this but I think I've found the best one. This one doesn't use images, doesn't look cheesy, and it's nice to your server's CPU.

Here are the steps:

1. Download this file: Snow.zip
2. Unzip the file
3. Copy the "snow.js" to your website [Connect to your website via FTP and copy it to the root folder.
It's usually name: "public_html" or "www" or "htdocs" It's the folder which holds all of your website files]
4. On the pages where you want it to snow add the following [the code in the box] right after the tag "<head>"

Code:

<!-- Start Snow For Christmas Code -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://yoursite.com/snow.js"></script>
<!-- End Snow For Christmas Code -->

5. Change the "yoursite.com" to your sites URL and save changes
6. You're done!

-When you want to remove the snow, you can just erase the above code from your pages.

-Some website have one file that is always used as the header of the website. You can add the code to that header page and the snow will appear on all of your pages.

-If you have a lot of javascript on your website, the snow might not play well with it.

-The author of this snow script is: Kurt Grigg

Enjoy,

You said Kudos to me but you didn't give me any Karma or even a little "Thanks!" *Sniff*

It's okay, I guess people are short for cash these days, passing karma, and pressing the red "thanks" button.

does the falling snow use any bandwith/memory?

or is it just a flash thing? java?

It's Javascript.

It's easy on the bandwidth and on your PC. The are no images used, the JS creates the snow effect 100%.
