Just thought I would post that I currently have the following setting in the profile field:

Description: Choose yes to have little Christmas Snowflakes Floating around throughout December.

I just did this because I have added the prifle field but not added the code for the Snow Flakes yet cause I feel its too early.

Members will be able to see the Field but the Description clearly states that the Flakes will be there in December, just lets them choose now if they want to.

It's great, the only thing I don't like about javascript with this code is that it uses up a lot of cpu resources and slows everything down. :(

This works well in IE, Firefox and netscape (I've viewed it in netscape and IE, my users firefox). It *does* lag the site for users on slower computers so everyone needs to take that into consideration. I've got a pretty kicking computer and it only minorly lagged when I tried to open a pop down menu on my nav bar but some people it does get pretty laggy (one of my friends showed me at his house). I'm using the "small" flakes and not the big ones.

Some kind of randomizer would be cool, or a way to set it up as an even so that at random times during the day it snows.

It's an AWESOME little toy though.

Well if you do what I have posted up then its set to No so the Snow Flakes wont show, you could put a warning in the description I suppose to let them know it will lag on computers that suck.

Hehe, yeah, you've just given me inspiration... I could actually use this for all kinds of events and a variety of festive type things. :D

Although obviously I won't be over doing it, as it would get annoying if it was over used.

Thats why you give users the option to turn it off and on. :P

What would be awesome? A seasonal package. Depending on the season, or weather conditions, the option given (and applicable images/files) to turn on/off weather (rain, snow) seasonal attributes (leaves, ghosts-if you will), etc. If you're feeling kinda weathered down, have something like the sun poke out from behind the forums and move depending on the time of day... lol - the options would be endless - and a vote for HotM.

ditto
and add in a holiday pack. (st. patricks, valentine, halloween, etc)

Very nice, going to check this out come December...I've just started making different logos for my main theme depending on the holiday (did halloween and have one set aside for thanksgiving already...), definitely have to do something with this...

Cant we just get a turn it on/off in the Admin-CP for all users?
