Let it snow, Let it snow... on your website

Hi.

If you would like to have the effect of snowing at your site, simple and nice, you can use DHTML Snowstorm.

Demo

How to install it:

Just download snowstorm.js file manually or the whole script here - where you find images in directory images/snow. Upload this images to the server and also snowstorm.js.

Add <script type="text/javascript" src="script/snowstorm.js"></script> to the header of your site - use correct path of the file, where it is uploaded. If you have changed location of images (snowflake), open snowstorm.js and find var imagePath and insert right location.

Enjoy your snowy website.

 

I am on a couple sites that have this snow (Not the same script) and man oh man was it bogging down my connection!! (Other ppl also had issues) Its been removed on 1 site....... Ill have to recommend this script,it didnt seem to be bogging down my connection on that site nearly as bad......

 

This isn't bogging the connection probably, but these kind of scripts are pretty wasteful, because of lot of actions with JS, so browser can freeze a little.

 

Looks cool, but kinda makes the content hard to read.

 

I kinda like what I have going here, a little better.. Bigger nicer flakes...

 

Yes, maybe, but bigger snowflakes are, more rubbish it looks.

 

Annoying, lagging, distracting.

 

i agree


if you want to use it, just use it in the banner, its just really annoying when its over the content

 

Yeah, Christmas is pretty annoying.. Hey, I look at it this way, it comes only once a year, and as for the Snow Flakes on our ISP site, I've had nothing but compliments from our user base.YMMV

 

In my personal opinion it looks tacky.

 

thses are just fine..

 

Thanks, I was looking for this.

 

Watch out for the grinches....

 

That's actually one of the better ones I've seen.

 

i use a script i found of a friends site
on www.piggymoo.com
i like and it's not lagging me at all

 

Yea... that one is good also, one of sites I visit frequent has this script. It is using floating characters (*) not images. But the first one look more natural.
