Brilliant hack, very nice.

Space reserved for FAQ

Let me give it a try :D, thank you. Installed :D

Do they work with Safari or Firefox on the Mac? Can anyone confirm - thanks?

you need to upload the season folder to your /forums/ folder. add that to your install file.

also is there a way to make it where there are more falling items? maybe a dump every XX seconds or something?

Service Unavailable
lmao

In process of moving servers, dont worry about my site atm :P

thax you so much it very nice i intall now

/me installs

Thanks will give it a try i am a noob @ this never the less nice to have....:classic:install

Damn nifty, if I do say so.

>>Clicks Install<<

Now to dabble and figure some custom items for my forum topic line...

Really lags forum and sucks up the bandwith -.-

Its no differant than any other of the 'snow effect' scripts.

thanks installing now cant wait
only the snow flakes fall hosts bat etc dont work they only stand still in top left corner

and is their a way to make it go the lebgth of the page insteaad of just top

I can't get it to work, I have put all the images into forum/ folder and uploaded the xml file, made 2 template edits and turn it on, what can be more simplier, but ohhhh no it just doesn't wanna work.

Upload the season FOLDER to your forum home directory.

Flakes didnt goes all over the length of the page. Dissapeared in the middle of the screen

<installed>

Updated zip file so people can understand what to do easier.

In the season folder you will find a list of javascript files named 1 - 10.

Open 1/2 (depending if your using large / small flakes) and find:
and change the height to what you want to use.

Each script corresponds with the following:
0|Snow pixels
1|Snow Large Flake
2|Snow Small Flake
3|Bats
4|Ghosts
5|Witches
6|Fireworks Pixel
7|Fireworks Pixel 2
8|Fireworks Animation
9|Hearts
10|Heart Hug

i change it but nothing new

At first I thought my users would think it was kind of tacky, but they absolutely love the snowflakes! Thanks for the very cool hack!

I'd like to see a "Register Now" graphic. That would be a good way to get guest's attention on the forum home page.

Happy Holidays! :)

any other tip to snowing at whole length with big flakes ??

What did the updated do?

<font color="Red">not to be a pain but I added it to my board fist I loaded it to the directory turned it on ....nothing so I removed the files then re uploaded the season files to the FORUMS folder and yet again nothin any ideas ? </font>

make sure its the season FOLDER you have uploaded, not just the files inside.

so it will be:
forum/season/0.js
ect.

Then people that have it installed don't need to fix anything. Ok cool :)

INSTALLED!

My members think its cool and its a nice touch for the holidays.

I haven't noticed any performance change after the install forum still runs top notch.

So now it works, Is there a way to increase the amount of snow? maybe add a blizzard or maybe a santa and his raindeers going across the screen from time to time.

I am getting this in the admin CP

Seasonal Effect
